    New recall for "marginal front crash result"?

    Step up transformer 5000W

    another consideration is the Quick 220. downside is you plug in into two different socket.

    Step up transformer 5000W

    I have a separate EVSE.. i dint plan to use the 120v on the transformer. Like i said, my EVSE is 240v 16A @ 3.84kw (3800W) The transformer im going to buy is step up 240v @ 5kw (5000W) My garage plug is 120v 20A

    Step up transformer 5000W

    Isnt that the EVSE sends the signal in the car? If so, the one i have is 240v rated @ 16A, 3.84kW Now the transformer rated @ 240v 5kW can handle the EVSE needs.. this will lessen my time vs level 1 cable that came with bmw
