So yesterday I finally was able to get electricians to house and get my 240 plug installed in my garage. So when I got off work last night I was able to power up my new Juicebox 40 and set it up. First App isn't very good and underwhelming. That said I got it plugged into my new M3P and car showed 40amps connected and it started charging away. About a 1.5 hours later I get a notification from Tesla app that the charging was interrupted. I go out to garage and look and see that the breaker (50amp non GFI) was tripped. I unplugged the car and flipped the breaker back on and it instantly tripped again. I felt the Juicebox and it was extremely hot. Almost to hot to touch. The cable and plug didn't feel hot at all. So I waited a hour or so and it cooled. I flipped the breaker back on and the Juicebox powered up and started a constant beep. Which according to their site its a internal GFI error. I called Juicebox (will say I was impressed I got to talk to someone right away) They had me turn it on and off a few times to try and reset the internal GFI. Didn't seem to work. So they asked me to leave it plugged in but flip breaker off for another hour. I did that and then the beep went from 1 to 5 which appears to be a internal circuit error. Now they say I need to get a replacement and they are sending one my way.
I just hope that I didn't cause the issue. I don't think I set up the app wrong and I can't see how anything would have caused the problem. Any ideas?
Electrician is coming back to double check wiring, but I trust these guys they have done a TON of work for me and the company I work for.
