External 240 Volt timer on Charging service
Well, I am going to install 240 volt service in my garage. Don't know yet if it will be 24 or 40 amp. That depends on what the pros say the house service can support.
I too wish the car or the app allowed us to time the start or stop of the charging. So, for a few bucks, and until Tesla gives it to us in the car or the app, I am going to add a 240 volt digital 7 day timer to my charging service to enhance the control of charging. I don't see a down side. I can use this to increase my control and once the car and/or the app supports it, then I simply leave it disengaged.
I will get one with sufficient capacity from Amazon and have it onsite with the electrican comes for the service installation. Less than $60
I looked every where for a 240 volt timer that is supported by an iPhone app. Even tried Smarthouse.com. No luck.
Comments? Ideas?
