i3 not charging, 1st in country, which wall box charger?

oostlanderhg · Dec 23, 2015

My i3 REX still is not charging on Sint Maarten. Tried everything, so want to try a wallbox charger, to see if the problem is the cable which came with the car. What is an affordable wall charger? Brands? We have 110 and 220/230 V on the island and 60 Hz. How many amps work well?

Surely you have had some electrical help? Are there any electricians on the island?

We have a Juicebox 40, there are models down to $499 US

Works really well. We have 240v power here.

Thank you for the info! Just ordered the juicebox, hope my i3 charges with this device.

I just received and installed the juicebox and the car charges! I am so happy and relieved, tried everything but the problem was the cable which came with the car which is obviously broken. Had great tech support and service from juicebox. It is a great product.
thank you so much for your help and suggesions!,
regards, Claire

Excellent news!

Might be worth shipping the cable back to the dealer to get it checked.
