Some electric vehicles have inherent limitation with their provided charger that makes it challenging to charge at home if you plan to use a 30 amp outlet. If you own or are thinking of purchasing an EV from any of the following car makers, please read this: Chevrolet (Bolt) Ford (Mach-E and Lightning) Nissan (Leaf) Jeep (4xE) If you have a 30 amp outlet (NEMA 10-30 or NEMA 14-30) and you are planning to charge your car with the OEM charger that came with the car, there has been a critical oversight on the part of EV manufacturers that overlooks millions of homes that might not have the panel space for a 50A outlet.  These chargers are programmed to pull 32 amps by default, which is more than the allowable continuous current load according to the National Electric Code(NEC). While charging at 32A may not immediately trip the breaker, over time this may cause the breaker to trip at lower current draws.  The manufacturers recommend you use a dedicated 50A outlet in order to charge your vehicle, but if you don't have one already installed this could lead to an expensive panel upgrade costing thousands of dollars - and changing up the electrical aspects of a home or apartment is rarely a viable option for home renters. Solutions: Don't let any of this deter you from buying your next car. There are a few solutions and work-arounds that can get you up and running using your existing 30 amp outlet. 1. If you understand the risk outlined above, and would like to override this protection setting, NeoCharge has a firmware update available that will allow your Smart Splitter to work without interruption at 32A. If this applies to you, please reach out to the NeoCharge Support Team at support@getneocharge.com with the message body “32 amp charger update”. We will get in contact with you with further instructions to get connected to your in-home wifi and get your Smart Splitter set up with the appropriate firmware. 2. Purchase an EV charger with adjustable amperage such as the Grizzl-E Adjustable Charger (UL certified, $349) and an adapter ($35) to make the charger compatible with your wall outlet configuration. This is still compatible with the Smart Splitter if you are looking to share the outlet with an appliance.  We don't suggest off-brand EVSE's due to quality issues and wiring problems. That is the reason to invest in a Level 2, 240V EV Charger that is UL certified.  3. The other option you have is to contact an electrician and have them come install a high amperage (50A) circuit in your home. We work with both Treehouse (CA and AZ only) and COIL Electric for install services. This will allow you to use the 240V charger that comes with the car, and if you ever purchase a second EV then you would also be able to use a NeoCharge 50A Smart Splitter and share that outlet amongst two EVs. The downside of this is it will likely be the most expensive option. and share that outlet amongst two EVs. The downside of this is it will likely be the most expensive option.
