    JuiceBox 40 install

    Just installed the JB 40 amp with 10 kWh charging rate. Used a Connecticut Electric box with 50amp breaker and 2 outlets. Cord fits nicely, and I will be able to lock it inside. Had no plans for a level two charger, but given the amount we are driving this car, this will be a huge benefit...

    Confused on L2 chargers

    I'm looking for some advice on installing a L2 charger at employer-provides housing. I am paying to have a 240 line installed ($650), and would prefer to use a plug in lieu of hardwire given that it's not my home, so my thinkng is that it would be easier, when my contract is over, to unplug the...

    Airport parking

    I have a trip tomorrow from JFK. It's a 48-hour turnaround. There are several EV spaces with Chargepoint Level II chargers. Getting there will be close to 100% of range so will definitely need a charge; however, hate to take up a space for 40 hours more than necessary. Anyone else experience...

    Automatic wipers

    I just purchased an LE and can't seem to get auto wipers going? I believe the LE also has this feature. It's activated in the settings menu. I watched the video and it says to click the stalk up one spot past intermittent. When I do that, the wipers just stay on? It was pouring rain today and...

    Picking up my new e-golf tomorrow

    Hello everyone, After coming within hours of picking up a Nissan Leaf, I realize that the e-golf was available in my area, test drove it locally, and then negotiated a lease deal over the phone. I am headed out tomorrow morning to take delivery, and I'm wondering if I should be on the lookout...

    Should I plan on a Level 2 charger?

    The VW dealers I spoke to were pretty pushy about the purchase of a Bosch Level 2 charging system. I can see the benefit, but my daily commute is really short - literally 2.5 mi each way. I also drive ~1 mile R/T in the am (unless I walk it time and weather permitting) to get coffee, and then...

    Is 7,500 mi lease regional?

    I've seen a bunch of the lease offers that seem to be from California for 7500 miles per year. All of the Volkswagen dealers in my area, Connecticut, I claiming that the lowest you can actually go is 10,000 miles per year. I only put on about 5000 or 5500 Miles per year, so I'd rather not pay...
