Has anyone tried out any of the chinese chargers? There seems to be a large choice at relatively low cost... I guess you'd have to do all the charging protocols yourself though...

I looked into those when I was building my E30. They wanted double that price back in November. I’m guessing they weren’t selling many at that price point. Word of caution. If you email asking questions, prepare to be contacted 3 times a week by Frank looking for an order.

We expect to add that functionality to the Tesla chargers in the near future 8-)
