    Meter attached to my EVSE

    I will!! I have another question: I want to know why only one hot lead is through the donut transducer, instead of both leads, since it is 240v, 125v each lead. Does this one lead show all the current? Or, do you have to multiply the current reading X2 to get the total..... Just wondering. Dr...

    Perfect ! That's what I'm talkn about.... Now I get it. You attached the two voltage wires to the two Hot leads on the socket. This is very easy and will be lotsa fun in my Plain old JuiceBox 30 I use for my smartED. Thanks again, Dr Alex Houston

    Meter attached to my EVSE

    Thank you for your reply. I have seen the diagram on these meters you have used in your example. Since there are two hot legs and a neutral on a 14-50 socket, shown here. I was just wondering how to wire the two voltage wires to get the 240v reading, since a connection to just X or Y and one to...

    Love this. I saw this meter on Amazon, and couldn't figure out HOW to connect it. A schematic perhaps would help me. Are all the connections on the 240 supply before the ESVE?? I couldn't tell from the pictures. Can you help me ?? Dr Alex Houston

    Austin Tx Hilton downtown ICE'd

    Hey everyone. There was a great surprise this weekend here at the Austin Hilton downtown on 4th Street. They have a Chargepoint 30 that I have used several times staying here, but when I planned on charging, it was ICE'd by my antithesis, TWO side by side diesel dually pick Ups. Parking got...

    Houston, TX

    Having used Katy Coachworks myself, I would prefer Collision Plus, because John Gray, the OptiCoat Plus guy is right next door, and he had to do extensive paint correction on my P85 after Katy halogrammed the finish on my Tela repair. John then recommended that if I ever have to do any future...

    Where to get OptiCoat Plus done?

    John Gray is excellent. He had to do a paint correction and then OptiCoat on my 2012 P85, and this is the Dark Green they offered that year. Do you know that this paint actually looks like it came from the Peterson Museum now?? What a finish. My work was done a couple of months ago, and I have...
