![]() ![]() Here is a screenshot of one of their charging graphs showing the power draw history over time. So you can’t see a graph of the current charging session until it finishes. My only complaint is that the current charging session is not added to the “history” until the J1772 is unplugged. Update: The new “dashboard” web interface is much nicer looking, easier to navigate, and has nice graphs that you can zoom into. The web interface used to be very bare bones, but provided a perfectly serviceable basic info such as how much power each charging session used, when they started and stopped (and total time) as well as a graph of the rate of charge over time. (Update: Now the difference between the Pro and regular unit is only $50.) As I have a dedicated sub-meter for this circuit, the extra monitoring/feedback info may not be necessary, but I have already determined that either the JuiceBox under-reports the amount of power it uses, or my bought used on E-bay analog meter over-reports the amount of power flowing through it. I paid an extra $100 for the “Pro” model that comes with Wifi, Android smartphone app, and web interface. It was included with the JuiceBox, or you can purchase it standalone $25 at the Electric Motor Werks website to use with other EVSE’s. It has a shelf to wrap cables over, and a plastic “fake” J1772 inlet that the “gun” end of the cable latches into when not in use. I especially like the small plastic cable and “gun end” management system which is screwed to the wall above the JuiceBox. ![]() I already had the dedicated NEMA 14-50 (50 Amp) circuit previously installed for electric truck charging, and since the JuiceBox plugs into a NEMA 14-50 outlet, installation was as simple as anchoring it to the brick wall of the garage (with concrete screws) and plugging it in. Georgia Power is offering a $250 rebate for installing a Level 2 EVSE with dedicated circuit this year. This is my new J1772 EVSE, a JuiceBox Pro 40 (Amp) unit.
