GRIZZL-E, THE INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH EVSE!!!

Switching over to the Grizzl-E and I am liking the build quality, emphasis on strength and premium components over bell's and whistles, fluff and lights. This EVSE is the one......don't get me wrong, polished plastic, wifi and the like are nice but not the meat and potatoes of the EVSE. Just research who and how many wifi EVSE's fail to connect/ reconnect. Not to mention apps trying to keep up with new operating systems of ios and android.

Nice video. I have the black model, which they now call Classic. I had to open it up to adjust the amperage DIP switch for my EV. The inside is also impressive and robust.

[@htnowpro]

Thank you 😊. That is great news to hear "impressive and robust " where it counts, both inside and out! Thank you for watching and sharing. In a time when manufacturers skimp on everything, it's refreshing to see a quality built product.

[@vicenzor9699]

Do the dip switches work well? Can you change them frequently? I limit mine to 24 amp during the day and 16 overnight on a 30 amp line but it's hard to find non tesla chargers made for 30 amp lines anymore. Only ones are non listed and sketchy so i have to use an adapter which requires an evse that can limit the draw

[@randalllewis4485]

@@vicenzor9699 This is a well made device, but I can't imagine the DIP switches were intended for frequent use as they look identical to the those I used to adjust on early PCs I owned.

Great review. Just ordered this unit today through Amazon. Going to have a friend that’s an electrician install our 240volt plug. Crossing fingers that we have sufficient room in our electrical box 🤞🏼

[@htnowpro]

My pleasure, I'm sure you will get good use from it. It is extremely well built. Thanks for watching and sharing. Have a wonderful week. 😊

I bought me the classic version. Though I won't really own an EV until about two years from now (I have an F-150 Lightning on reservation). I figured that It's better to be prepared. This will fully charge the Lightning standard range around 12 hours (15-85%), since their included 32A EVSE does it in approximately 14 hours and the 48A Ford Connected Charge station will do it in approximately 10 hours. I'd really like the 48A Ford EVSE, but it's about $800

[@htnowpro]

I think you made a good choice on both. I would really like to have a Lightning. It's going to be a beautiful truck/EV. Have a great week and thank you for commenting. Please cone back and let me know how your Lightning turns out. 🙂

I love that it's made in Canada vs. China. Nice that they offer a white version as well.

[@htnowpro]

I feel exactly the same way. Made in Canada is cool and the white unit is a nice touch. Thanks for watching and commenting.

1 year in with this charger...how is it going? Do you still recommend it?

[@htnowpro]

Absolutely 💯 percent. It has been rock steady. No complaints whatsoever. Thank you for watching and commenting. Have a great weekend.

Nice honest review of the Grizzl E. It will be my first home charger for my first EV car. Want one with non smart functions and heavy duty construction. Should I purchase direct or Amazon?

[@htnowpro]

Bought mine through Amazon. It's a very nice unit. Enjoy your new EV world.

[@lbrastaman]

Purchase it directly from the manufacture. Same price as Amazon but no sales tax.

[@htnowpro]

@@lbrastaman cool. I didn't think about that. What color did you get? If white, are your cables white? Thanks for sharing.

[@trbr6705]

@@lbrastaman I got mine in 4 days from the manufacture. no sales tax. 6% on 450 bucks isn't nothing!

[@htnowpro]

Absolutely great deal. Thanks for sharing.

[@vroooom]

Just ordered one. Is it ok to have the cable curved like that plugged into the outlet?

[@htnowpro]

It is a very heavy duty unit, cable and strain relief. I forsee see any issues. Congratulations 👏 I think you made a great purchase. Enjoy 😉. Thank you for watching and sharing. Have a wonderful weekend coming up.

[@vroooom]

@@htnowpro thanks, you too!

[@htnowpro]

WOW!!! GRIZZL-E doesn't stop innovating ...I just checked their lineup. They make a dual Grizzl-E. Cool stuff.

[@vroooom]

@@htnowpro wow pretty cool! Excited to receive my classic, heard only great things.

[@roboticvenom1935]

I really need to try an EV! Will definitely consider that charger at some point as I really don't care for wifi once I get an EV. Thinking about maybe a used Nissan leaf(newest model)

[@htnowpro]

Sounds like a plan. Just remember there are adjustments to be made and pros and cons to all types of vehicles. With a good understanding of needs and expectations a balance can be achieved and in turn make the experience better. Have a great day.

[@roboticvenom1935]

@@htnowpro Thanks!

[@htnowpro]

You are welcome.

[@ArmedAngryAtheist]

On day 3 with our '21 Leaf SL+. Loving it so far. Just ordered this charger in the standard version from Amazon. This seemed like the best option for those that don't need a smart charger. The Leaf offers all I need in the Nissan Connect Ev Services app, regarding charging levels and times. Sounds like I made a good decision with the charger.

[@htnowpro]

@@ArmedAngryAtheist 21 Leaf sounds exciting. New car and EV to boot. Nice. Enjoy your new car and new charger. This seems like the most robust charger without the fluff. Exactly what you said, your vehicle has all the app that's needed ( same with my Clarity ". Thanks for sharing. Please stop back and let us know how you, your new Leaf and charger are working out. Have a great weekend.

[@RISCGames]

Such a cool charger, how’s it holding up for you to date?

[@htnowpro]

I would have to say I am completely satisfied with its flawless operation. I believe it is a very well built unit. I didn't need any wifi communications because my Honda Clarity app sends status automatically. I had one instance where I had to reboot the unit. It was beeping and the light was flashing. If you have any other questions let me know. Thank you for watching and commenting 🙂. Have a great weekend.

[@ernestoochoa7707]

Flex conduit for outdoor use?

[@htnowpro]

Check your local code. I'm sure you would need the plastic weather sealed conduit outside. Mine is in the garage. My water heater and air handler use the same metal conduit. Thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great week.
