Review: L-2 Charger is a must! UPDATE - 3 Years 9 Months Later and going strong! - Jan 24, 2022 UPDATE: So We purchased this L2 charger in April of 2018. Our hope was that this well known brand would serve as our primary EVSE. Well, here we are now 3 years, 9 months later and the EVSE is still going strong! For about half the time, in our prior home, this EVSE was an intrical part of our Solar & Home battery bank. Our Solar system would replenish our at home battery banks by day. When we returned with the Volt, we'd connect the EVSE, set the delay to start 6 hrs later. This would allow us to use the battery banks to power the home. Then after we turn in for the night, the EVSE would come on, also drawing from the battery banks to replenish the Volt's drive battery. The next morning the Volt would be ready to go and the Solar panels would replenish the in home battery banks. We moved about 18 months ago, taking our Siemens EVSE with us. Second house, second installation! While we are now in a much smaller place (I've retired), and we don't have an elaborate solar system here, we do have a fantastic albeit uncomplicated ESVE that is still recharging our Volt every single day. The simple delay start option allows us the ability to decide when charging begins. That said, I would wholeheartedly recommend the purchase of this Siemens EVSE. Basic, yes! Reliable, definitely. Easy to use, without a doubt. My only suggestion is that no matter how well you think you know electric, if you are not actually a certified electrician, that you hire a certified electrician to properly install a dedicated circuit for the EVSE to operate on. Don't risk your two most valuable assets, your home and your vehicle. ~Mr. T. Morton Original Post ---- I wanted a uncomplicated unit, just plug in and charge! I've read reviews on so may Level 2 chargers that I guess some people love because they can check the status of the charge from great distances via their smart phone. This would not be me. I just want to come home from my outing and plug in my Volt to top off the batteries. This unit has built in 2,4,6 & 8 hour charge delay for those that get better rates at night. No need to program a device and pray the app works or to have to rely on the availability of wifi to charge your vehicle. Just plug in and charge! I hired an electrician to install the 40 amp 220v service and outlet. He did a great job and including the need to run wire through the attic, he was done within a couple of hrs. The end result is I can now charge my car after bebopping around town in a matter of a couple hrs instead of overnight when I used the 110v Level 1 charger. The charger is easy to operate and I can neatly store the cord by just wrapping it around the unit itself. Though the charge cord is plenty long enough, just to have it, I wished I'd gotten the longer cord. Otherwise this was a perfect solution. A faster, better and safer way to recharge my Volt or for that matter any future vehicle that I purchase that is either a total EV, plug in Hybrid or ER electric like my Volt. Would I recommend it, YES! I suggest that unless you are appropriately skilled, that you hire a qualified electrical contractor to install the electrical service. Better safe than sorry. Mr. T Morton
Review: Well thought out, easy install, works as advertised - I selected this unit after spending several months charging my i8 with the level 1 charger supplied with the Car. I selected it over the Bosch unit due to reviews here on desertcart even though Bosch "makes" the BMW unit. This unit was easy to install, My electrician installed the required circuit. There are three ways to install it, direct wired, plugged into a flush mounted receptacle behind the unit or plugged in to a surface or flush mounted receptacle below the unit. The installation bracket is clever in that if you choose the flush mount behind the unit option, the bracket provides "hints" to align it to the cover plate to insure that the plug will be properly aligned. This allows you to get the clean look of a direct wired unit with the portability of a plug in unit if you so desire. I chose to install the plug below, much like the picture here. I also got a second bracket, (yes $30 is a bit much for a piece of plastic and a few screws) as I wanted the option to relocate the unit to a second location in the future and the bracket arrangement is very well suited to that possibility .. one screw "locks" the unit to the bracket. Once removed the unit simply lifts off the bracket, it is very well designed. The cord management (wrapping around the unit) works well. The supplied J1772 plug fits my BMW just fine but does not lock into the socket when the car is locked as the BMW supplied unit does, other reviews here mention that. Not a problem for a unit in my garage. The socket on the front of the unit is a bit awkward to use, and in my opinion unnecessary .. I simply drape it over the top. Charge times are vastly improved, 3-4x over the level one charger I was using, allowing a full charge of the I8s modest battery in a couple of hours. The 20 foot cord provides great flexibility if/when I add another EV or choose to park in an different bay. Documentation / installation instructions are supplied on a USB stick or are available on-line. the unit has a soft green halo that glows steady when the car is attached and fully charged and pulses slowly when the car is charging, this feature can be disabled as you choose. I'm quite pleased with the unit thus far, but its early days, I'll be back in a month or so with an update.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It is type II head, can use in bmw I3?**
A: yes. If you have the US version of the i3 which has J1772 compatibility.

**Q: How easy is it to set charge rates  - for instance I might want to charge at 2.5 kW on most days and switch to 6.6 kW on certain days.**
A: For me, it is very quick and easy to change the rate of charge.  I have the prior version of this charger, which has the same method of charge rate adjustment. I have removed the four front screws and use spring clamps you might use in a woodshop to hold the front cover closed.  To adjust the charge rate I remove the spring clamps (3 seconds), swing the cover up (its hinged on top), grab my little screwdriver which I've left there behind the front cover, rotate the adjusting "switch" (5 seconds), set the screwdriver down, cover down, clamps on (5 seconds), done.  This is a valuable feature for our situation...I've changed the setting on the charge rate hundreds of times to suit the current need.

**Q: Can an extension cord be used with this?  I have a 240V dryer plug in my garage, but it's located near a cabinet, so there's no wall space near it.**
A: Yes. And this is coming from an electrician. You would need at a minimum 10 Gauge SO though given the chargers ability to draw near maximum current for extended times I would recommend 8 Gauge SO which can be difficult to find. You then would simply need a NEMA L14-30 Amp rated plug assuming your Dryer used the same socket. You should be aware though that consists of a pair of Hot conductors, a Neutral, and a Ground line while most Electric Dryers use a NEMA L14-50 which only has a Pair of Hot conductors and a Ground, NO NEUTRAL, which may make it useless for the charger as a Neutral is needed.

**Q: Just purchased electric vehicle and i need to install 30a ev charger inside my garage. is this unit just plug into the garage electrical outlet?**
A: Like all Level 2 EVSE units, this requires a 240V circuit.  This particular model plugs into a 6-50R receptacle, which is a fat 3-prong receptacle used in some dryers (or even some welders plug into this type of receptacle).  It needs to be installed on a dedicated 40A circuit breaker.  I was able to install the circuit breaker and wiring myself because I had easy access to my subpanel in the garage, but if you don't have easy access or aren't sure how to wire it up, definitely have a professional do it.  There is also a direct hard wire version that skips the plug and is wired directly to the circuit.We've had our Siemens EVSE since November, use it almost every day/night, works great.  Even though all EVs have some type of charge timer, I find the delay feature on this unit to be very convenient for charging the car overnight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid and easy to use charging station. Love it.
*by M***S on August 29, 2017*

Works great for our Ford C-max electric. I had the electrician come out and install a dryer plug in my garage. Then we simply mounted the bracket on the wall and hung it up. Since we have an RV we put a RV plug on the same circuit so we can power the RV when it is parked in our driveway. This charge comes with a decent long cable. But be conscious when you place the unit. If you use the garage for storage and the car is in the driveway the cable is not long enough to reach the 20 feet out of the garage. We placed it closer to the garage door so there is enough slack to charge the car outside. Charging is much quicker than the factory cable that came with the car. Less than 2 hours on our car. I have to time it next time to get an idea how much faster it goes. Our standard 15 amp outlet became really hot with the factory cable and with this new setup it is all nice and cool without the fear of burning down the house. This charging station seems to be of solid quality. I like the indicator light showing that the unit is getting power. So you always know if a breaker is tripped and the unit does not get power. I have not played around with the settings. I am glad you can just plug it in the car for normal operation. The engineers had mercy and did not make you navigate through a complicated setting procedure for standard operation. Solid well built unit. Love it. One advantage to this setup with a dryer plug is that you can take it to your next house without hiring an electrician to disconnect it. Just have a dryer plug installed in your next house and take the unit with you.
