    Home Charging / Tracking Sessions for Business Expenses

    Oh you are right. They really need to standardize more of this if they want the average person to accept it.

    Home Charging / Tracking Sessions for Business Expenses

    I just assumed my i3 had the DC charging port. I had no idea it was an option. Oh well, level 2 is working just fine for me. I kind of just jumped feet first into my i3 without fully checking everything out. But I do love it.

    Wow i3an that is some range of prices. Here we don't get that many choices. Probably a good thing in my case. Houston is still new to the EV game. Most of the chargers I visit at grocery stores and such still charge for free. I wonder how long that is going to last?

    Heavy duty floor mats

    I was actually told by the parts department that no one cuts the tag off, they justify lay one over the other. It worked fine. I like how they look. I may order the black ones in addition. I like a change every once in awhile.

    Home Charging / Tracking Sessions for Business Expenses

    I just wanted to give an update. Thehome charging with the OUC is working perfectly for me. I mounted it to the wall next to the outlet and plug in through a Kill A Watt meter. I did set the charging rate on the vehicle to "reduced" to protect the meter but have not noticed any significant...

    Occasional Use Cable

    I use the OUC as my primary means of charging. I've had my I3 for 2 weeks now and it works perfectly well for my driving needs. I mounted the OUC box right next to the outlet and use a Kill A Watt to measure my electricity usage. It's the perfection setup for me.

    Thank Art. Is there a way to limit the OCU to less than 12 amps?

    Thank you everyone for the great answers. I just ordered the kill a watt and when I get the 240 installed I will get the juicebox pro 40. This is a great forum.

    Home Charging / Tracking Sessions for Business Expenses

    OK I think I got it but let me ask. I'm currently just charging using the standard 120 household outlet. Our rate plan is 12.5 cents per kwh. So where do I go get my miles/Kw in the app? Sorry for all the trouble but I need to keep track of this before the first electric bill shows up...

    Home Charging / Tracking Sessions for Business Expenses

    I am new to EV driving and I need a way to tell how much I am spending on charging each night. I want to be able to pay back my housemate for the amount of electricity I use. Is there a way to track such a thing?

    Heavy duty floor mats

    I just got the all weather mats and did not have the dealer install them. It looks like they come in two sections for the front and another two sections for the back. My question is they each have rubber tabs on them with a pair of scissors icon on them. When I cut the rubber tabs off do I...
