  • Hey Guys! Thanks for stopping by. If there's any interest, I'll do a complete tear-down of this unit to see what's inside. For now, here I'm simulating the presence of an EV (Electric Vehicle) - connected to the DeWalt SAE J1772 nozzle.
    The circuit is very simple. Essentially, the "charger" tells the EV to accept a charging current at a certain value based on the 1kHz PWM duty-cycle.

    Hello,
    Thanks for this detailed explanation. It seems to be a good product. Maybe you mentioned it, but does this charger recognize a 20 amp circuit breaker on 120 volts. Will it give me a charging power of 1.92 kw (16 amp) or a power of 1.44 Kw (12 amp)? I would like to benefit from this little advantage of 1.92 Kw. Thanks for the info.

      Hello Karl! Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately, the answer (from what I know) is a no. It won't/can't detect your CB capacity. Also, as explained (from practical bench-test), at 120VAC, it limits the Current to about 11.1A.
