@TechConnectify I was this close to installing a Grizzl-e charger but have convinced myself to go universal Tesla charger to support both standards (for my current and future cars). Is this bonkers thinking?

TechConnectify OP ,
@TechConnectify@mas.to avatar

@craigtheguru I won't go so far as to call it bonkers but because J1772->NACS adapters exist (and vice versa) I didn't see that as important.

This will be charging my folks' Bolt until it dies and if/when they replace it with a car with a NACS port, then sticking on the adapter is all that's needed and that's effectively permanent. It would only be annoying (and even then only slightly) if they got a second EV but I don't think that's in the cards for them.

@TechConnectify I like the elegance of Tesla storing the J1772 adapter in the unit so its ready to go when needed or hidden when not. I also want a hard-wired unit. I suppose I could get the Grizzl-E charge cable swapped when I get the R2, but then I have another thing to deal with.

TechConnectify OP ,
@TechConnectify@mas.to avatar

@craigtheguru Why not just stick the adapter on and leave it on forever? That's what I mean.

Sure, it's less elegant, but I'm generally not a fan of paying more for elegance.

@TechConnectify Lol, I hear you buddy, but in my case we just completed a remodel and everything is nice so I am sticking with that theme. The old “run the charge cord out under the garage door" ain’t gonna cut it anymore. Berkeley, CA is not super suburban so we don't have large driveways, yards or houses and space is always a premium. Since NACS is the future, I'd default down that route. (Sidebar: I did it and heat pumped all the things! Thanks!)

@TechConnectify Wow, we have the same car and now we have the same charger too!

TechConnectify OP ,
@TechConnectify@mas.to avatar

@nul42 ah, this isn't for me. I have a Clipper Creek already.

But I hope you're enjoying your Ioniq as much as I am!

@TechConnectify
Well clipper creek is basically gone imo, having been bought out. Since xcel only talks to two different chargers for billing, I'm going Chargepoint. Otherwise I'd do emporia.

@TechConnectify @nul42 I like my Kira Niro, but I was driving behind an Ioniq 5 this morning, and I kinda wish I had one.

@TechConnectify Shoot, a fella could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff!

@TechConnectify uh oh what did you do to your Grizzl-E?

TechConnectify OP ,
@TechConnectify@mas.to avatar

@monorailtimes it's not mine, I'm prepping it for install though

@TechConnectify Don't tell me you pulled the charger out of the wall after having forgotten the car was plugged in!

TechConnectify OP ,
@TechConnectify@mas.to avatar

@EmuAGR I won't tell you that, in no small part because the car won't let you do that. It knows it's plugged in even if the station is dead!

@TechConnectify @EmuAGR if SAE J1772 didn't include that proximity pilot pin we would all be a lot crispier (myself included!)

@EmuAGR@owo.cafe avatar

@TechConnectify I didn't know that, interesting!
