Merci! Thank you for showing some of the details of the display and I especially like the hatch latch extender :geek:, which is better than running the wire through a partially-open rear window which is prone to rain intrusion.

Re: Portable CHAdeMO

Came across this old thread. Just for the record, I've been using this Setec charger for the last nine months while my OBC had been broken, feeding it from a NEMA 14-50 receptacle. Works very well, with a high-quality CHAdeMO handle. Stops charging at 80% automatically which is all I want for daily use, but if needed a restart can take it up to 99%. IMO, way too expensive (especially with the previous administration's import duty), but still cheaper than a new OBC. I purchased it with a CCS cable in addition to the CHAdeMO - kinda useless as most modern vehicles can handle at least 32A J1772 charging, but perhaps useful if an OBC quits working.

Re: Portable CHAdeMO

I see they don't list a price now -- you have to email them for it. But it was $3000-$4000 back in the day, IIRC.
