While waiting for my electrician to let me know how big a circuit I can install, I'm wondering if 40 Amp charging is that much more useful than 30 Amp? I'm looking at the ClipperCreek units, either HCS-40 (30A) or HCS-60 (for 40A) at about $600 and $900 respectively.
I'm on solar and have a fairly large off peak window (9pm to 10am M-F), so overnight charging shouldn't be an issue. I have no idea how often I might want to charge quickly during the day.
Any thoughts or real life experiences? There is the idea of future proofing with a higher power unit, but prices are also dropping.
