Juicebox pro review how to#

Most commonly the NEMA 14-50P socket (a big socket that looks similar to the one typically found in homes for clothes dryers, but not quite the same). There are plenty to choose from, and they can be hardwired to the electrical system in your house or connected via several different socket types. Unless you’re driving a Tesla, in the US that is most likely going to be a 240V Level 2 A/C EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) – the charger is actually built into the car. If you’re going to have to add a dedicated circuit for it, why not go ahead and add one for a higher speed charger.

I actually just posted a new review of the JuiceBox Pro 40 yesterday, so I'll post the link below if anyone is interested.JuiceBox Pro 40While it is perfectly possible to charge an EV at home using a regular A/C electrical outlet, it will take longer and because of the continuous current draw most manufacturers recommend you give the charger its own dedicated circuit. I wouldn't recommend a station that I didn't have complete confidence in. That said, thier customer serives has been outstanding (so is Clippercreeks for that matter) recently, and they are quick to send you out a new unit if there any trouble. I've been reviewing home charging stations for about six years now (many of which are posted here on InsideEVs) and eMotorWerks has grown from a startup to one of the biggest suppliers of home charging stations, so they have naturally had some growing pains. It's really the only 'smart' EVSE on the market, so with more features there are likely more things that can go wrong. I really don't think people here should be concerned about getting one. For what it's worth, I have three JuiceBox Pro 40's and I've never had a problem. In the past however when I used Apple's airport and had 2 separate SSIDs (say HomeWIFI and HomeWIFI_5GHz) I run into a particular issue of the following kind with smart plugs, etc.: I now use Eero mesh for home wifi, so SSID is the same for both and Eero does the networking automatically to connect the two. And that's more than I can say for the past few weeks. Given the past few weeks of trials (and tribulations) with the different boxes, I'm not ready to say ' it's fixed now!', but at least today it's back up and collecting/sending data again. I'll just have to hope we don't have any more incidents with power in the near future so I have to deal with it again, and that this box will indeed be a keeper this time around. I guess that if the box happens to lose connection again, I won't know what I did to make it work. So I still don't know why it took so long to get the box to connect to the network given that the device reported during set up that it had successfully connected but then never showed up on the network or gave any indication by way of a solid blue light on its panel (until today) that it had. It just never found the network after that initial connection. I still wonder why it took so long for the box to connect - given that nothing changed on the network, I didn't do anything new or different from 'setup' onward. Well, as of lunchtime Monday, the new box found the network Woo hoo! I did nothing differently, just waited it out like before.

I think the JuiceBox website has details on how to reset and for the app, I would delete and redownload. You may have to reset both JuiceBox and the app to factory settings first so that they forget the 5GHz name. Now I don't know if this is the issue with JuiceBox but it is worth a shot. In those particular cases I was able to finally get things to work by expressly forgetting the 5GHz connection on my phone and then connecting to the 2.4 GHz version and rerunning the steps under the app. The appliance looks for HomeWIFI_5GHz, but can't find it because it is not on the 2.4 GHz Band.The app I am running to connect the smart appliance naturally views this as my wifi SSID and conveys this to the appliance.My phone is connected to wifi, but connected to the 5GHz SSID (HomeWIFI_5GHz).Click to expand.I now use Eero mesh for home wifi, so SSID is the same for both and Eero does the networking automatically to connect the two.
