I don't mean to sound offensive... so please consider I'm just a random internet user that has positive intent. I think if you're asking these questions... you may want to get an electrician out to your house to do this Wallbox EVSE install. That way, a professional can make 100% sure all the...

Oh wow... you actually got this paper manual in your Wallbox? Lol this would have been super helpful... I wonder why me just ramming the stripped-of-insulation-conductors into those openings didn't feel very snug. Oh well, it's some eBay buyer's problem now hah.

Everything Rocky says is accurate… But are your wires actually fitting snuggly when you jam the copper ends of your cord conductors into the wallbox’s connectors?

Don't forget your tax refund for the Gen 3 EVSEs!

Important NEM question… when does @h2ofun true up his annual NEM, and does he have any leftover credits? ☀️

I wonder if the cybertruck and PowerShare can get SGIP subsidies or the 30% battery ITC. Government cheddar is so tasty. Time for @Vines to get a CT and meter it with CT’s. https://electrek.co/2024/04/25/tesla-cybertruck-owner-quoted-over-30000-powershare-installation/

Got it thanks! I looked it up and indeed the DC side has similar looking terminal blocks. What's weird is the AC side still has screw-down lugs lol. If it's good enough for a solar inverter then it's good enough for this Wallbox I guess. Now I know what to tell the buyer when they ask me how...

Aren't backstab connections for outlets now non-code compliant?

Lol, this thing is going to get returned the moment the buyer sees these lugs then thinks I opened the box but didn't include whatever they need to affix conductors to these lugs.

Any chance you have a product/model inverter that you believe have these? At first, these things in the Mercedes Wallbox reminded me of the SMA inverter terminal block. Unfortunately jamming in the big conductor, and then jamming in a screwdriver to the small slot didn't actually lock down the...
