Thanks for the tip! I had the same thought but I only lowered to 10A. Maybe I will try lowering even further. I actually bought my own yesterday so guess I’ll figure it out somehow! It’s a chargepoint charger at work with max four hours. Not sure the cost. Luckily I discovered when testing...

The breaker isn’t tripping - just the EVSE unit throws a fault indicator light and stops delivering current. Would this happen if there are fluctuations in the current due to overload and not trip the breaker? Or is something getting heated up? I’ve just switched the charge uptake onboard the...

Update: Bought myself an Indium Gray SEL Premium today in Los Angeles - was able to get down to $10,500 off MSRP with 5.9 APR VW financing which I will soon refinance with my credit union at 3.25. Out the door was just over $33k. Loving it so far!
