TurboCord by AeroVironment

[VonSpark]

Has anyone purchased and used the TurboCord? I was thinking of getting one vs. the wall mount charge.

Thanks

I bought one. Have charged on 120v and 240v with it. Really happy with it.

Turbocord only supports 16 amps @ 208/240 volts, but the Spark EV should be able to charge at its full L2 speed with it. For cars w/6 kW on-board chargers (not the Spark EV), the Turbocord would be a bottleneck vs. say a 20+ amp EVSE (most L2 EVSEs tend to be 30 amp.)

OP should also consider 208/240 volt EVSEs from http://www.clippercreek.com/. They have a good rep.

There was also some previous talk of discount/rebate/credit on Bosch EVSEs. Google/Bing for this: site:mychevysparkev.com bosch.

The $500 Bosch discount is still good until the end of the month. http://www.pluginnow.com/discount One heck of a deal on a quality unit.
