I have been looking into options for home charging. One option under consideration is offered by Evgo. They provide home chargers on a subscription basis. They provide the EVSE, the electrical modifications and hook-up, and any required maintenance for a monthly fee, pretty much like a cell phone contract. I had them do a free feasibility study at my house and they confirmed that the system can be installed at no additional cost. The current contract price is $39/mo. for 36 months for a Clipper Creek 4.8 kW level 2 system. At the end of the contract, they take the EVSE, but leave all of the modifications in place. As I intend to lease for 3 years, the cost is known and is close to breakeven over that time.
Is anyone else using an Evgo charger at home? What has been your experience? Would you consider the availability of only a 4.8kW EVSE (instead of 6.6) a significant drawback?
I was also told that they have a special offer of unlimited access to their charging systems around town for $5 per month. Apparently, they only offer access to their systems on a subscription basis. Anyone else use the Evgo public charging systems? If so, what is your experience?
Thanks for your help.
