Re: Got my TH!NK can't plug it in.
Let me clarify.
I figured out how to charge my car by using a three phase we have
here for an old sprinkler pump. I used two legs and twisted the
ground around a screw on the box. This charges the car fine.
This is not to code. The electrician wants $2400 to start at the
meter room with a new sub panel because all is full. They want a
meter to see how much JUICE I use. This is not my home it is a huge
building and meter room and parking place are on opposite corners of
a building as big as a city block.
Three spools of 8 guage and conduit and meter and sub panel and a
waterproof box to put charger and connection in. This is $2150 and
the electrician gets $250 he says. It all has to be to code. I am
doing it now with two spools of 14/3 and some wire nuts. The
electricians just laughed at me, but it charges the car. I am not a
state contractor with a license. I am a graphic artist and anti
gasoline person only... Before this think it was my mountain bike
with the Zap twin motor setup. 18mph for 22 miles. Or one of my
three Sporty 24 scooters I got for family trips. 12.75mph for 13
miles...
