First time poster here but my Google skills have apparently let me down and I thought this would be the place to ask. I've ended up having to move into a condo and I was quoted over $10,000 (boring through concrete etc.) to run even a simple dryer outlet to my parking spot. The only thought the electrician had was to run an 120V outlet from the nearby lighting units. Now I'd be perfectly fine with having the ability to trickle charge as it beats running to a supercharger every week but the main concern is around billing.
I have not approached the HOA yet on this but want to be able to give them a proposal. Is there a solution that I can hardwire to the community lines that will measure the power consumed and give them a report automatically? I know that if I proposed having someone read a Kill-A-Watt or something similar every month and then calculate a bill, it would be shot down rather quickly. I know about ChargePoints and JuiceBoxes but those all seem to be 240V and not 120V.
Summary - is there an easily installable 120V, cloud-reporting solution for submetering?
