So I ordered a charge point L2 charger

[pgguru 3]

Now that the charge point chargers are available in Ontario I ordered one

I will rough in the electrical this weekend and get my Electrition to finish it up for me when I get the unit next week

Nice! What's the pricing like on them, and who's carrying them?

[steveyfrac 73]

$499, carried by ChargePoint

You still use 110 over there?

[smart142 605]

Yup, Canada and the USA

[marchanna 115]

Technically, we use split phase 240.

Maybe that price is supposed to be $949 for hardwired and $999 for the plug version - Canadian pricing.

It was $999. With a 21' cable hard wired

I have 15m of 8/3 conduit and a 40A double breaker and will be installing it today

Lowes is giving a $50 gift card if I buy a nest

The charger will connect to the Nest and keeps track of charging cost and the $50 will buy me a 1" Masonary bit I need to drill through my double brick house

Bosch 16a Power Max is only $561CAD with free shipping from Amazon.ca

I will get $500 for the charger back now that it's sold in Canada

My cost to install was less than $200 since I work in trade so it was not worth it for me to pay $1000 to install it to get 500 back

[marchanna 115]

Is it on the approved rebate list for charging stations already?

[steveyfrac 73]

The "approved list" says right on it that other charging stations will be considered. You just have to be able to be sold by a canadian retailer...

[marchanna 115]

I'm still happy with my homemade one. 32a made with retail components for just over $200 installed

I was planning on going that way but when I found charge point was coming to canada and it has wifi bluetooth and connects to the Nest I just decided to go with it

The ability to schedule charging for off-peak times is the best feature.

All of North America including Mexico are 110 Volts...

I noticed I have to keep the charger on in morning so the car can preheat and cool

I original had it set to charge between 7pm and 7am but we leave at 7:40am and the charger would be off at that time

I picked up a Nest thermostat and will set that up today. Then it will record actual power used to drive the Smart
