Thanks for all the input, very informative!! I'm new to EV and this is my first 100% EV. I had a Prius plug in so that's not very comparable. After reading everyone's comments, I think I'll return the Maxi and get the Grizzl_E Duo. I'm not too worried about sharing this 40amp charger and charging at the same time as I only have 1 MY and the plug-in(if rumors are true) Sienna, I'll get that in 24 or 25. Should be sufficient right? My commute is no more than 100 miles a day 3 days a week plus other usages on weekends and whatever... The plug-in probably only needs 8k miles a year.
My MSP is 200amp.
So there's one more thing you should take into consideration: the different connectors. You seem to be aware of this already, but unlike any other EV, there's probably a bigger difference in the experience of how you plug in a Tesla connector vs. a J1772 connector.
Tesla connector - Plugging In:
1. Remove connector from WC or grab UMC connector.
2. Make sure car is unlocked. Press button on top of connector. Charge port door opens.
3. Plug connector into car.
Tesla connector - Removal:
1. Make sure car is unlocked. Press button on top of connector. Connector will unlatch.
2. Remove connector from car.
3. Put connector in dock.
J1772 connector - Plugging in:
1. Grab connector
*2. Take J1772 adapter and place on the end of connector
3. Make sure car is unlocked. Tap charge port to open it (alternately - open charge port in phone app, on main display, by holding down the trunk button for 2 seconds on keyfob, etc.)
4. Push the J1772 adapter + connector onto the charge port
J1772 connector - Removal:
1. Make sure car is unlocked
2. Press the J1772 connector latch to signal to the vehicle that the connector needs to be removed but DO NOT pull the connector or adapter out. Vehicle will unlock the adapter, now allowing you to remove it.
3. Grab the adapter with one hand and the J1772 connector with the other and remove both of them together.
*4. Remove the adapter from the end of the connector and put back in its usual storage place.
5. Put connector back in its usual storage place.
*As people have noted, these steps can be skipped, if you just leave the J1772 adapter on the end of the J1772 connector, although this doesn't work with all EVSEs if you want to use a built-in dock that the connector plugs into.

Notice the difference? The Tesla connector can be plugged in and removed with
one hand, while the J1772 connector and adapter requires two hands. I have both a J1772 EVSE and Tesla WC in my garage and I prefer to use the WC to charge the Tesla for that reason. It's way, way easier. Is this a deal breaker for J1772 EVSEs? Certainly not. But given a choice, I really prefer to be able to do things one handed in case I'm carrying a bunch of stuff when I get out of the car, and not have to futz around with adapters when I am doing the most common type of charging (in my own garage).
