Will you be installing a Level 2 charger?

Awesome. Yeah thats cheap enough!

I think I will end up installing a NEMA 6-20 outlet since I don't know how much extra capacity the breaker box has.

Installed a 220 V 30 amp plug in my garage a couple years ago for a welder. I hope to use that for a level two charger but haven’t put the pieces together yet.

Welder outlet is intermittent.

EV charger is constant current draw.

Have an electrician check if 24A can be continuously safely charging.

For my use-case... I will be putting maybe 100 miles a month of the truck with the longest single trip being 30 miles round trip towing 600#. (Except for once per year I have to do 80 miles without the trailer.) At that rate, I'm pretty sure level one will be fine. I always know at least a couple of days in advance whether I'm going sailing that weekend, so I can just plug in then and I'll be all juiced up.

I'm a big fan of TC and gave this a watch last night. I really like that Grizzl-e charger he used. If I end up hard-wiring a charger in the back I'll definitely go with one of those that's just dip-switch controlled, which I didn't know you could even get one so simple.

Apartment dweller here, so no installation happening on my end sadly.

This vid has me seriously thinking that a 30a/240v circuit hardwired might be enough. I like the simpler (no app) approach.
