I am trying to figure out what high-power alternatives there are to the Tesla High Power Wall Connector, for charging a Model S. Please post here with all of the options! I am searching for alternatives, because I would like something that is less expensive than the HPWC (less than $1200), delivers more juice (more than 10 kW / 50A breaker / 40A draw), or both.
Criteria: to be on the list, the EV charging station must be a Level 2 charging station, that delivers at least 10 kW (50A breaker / 40A draw @ 240V). Post the make and model, and the street price, preferably with links.
There are a lot of EV chargers on the market, but most are rated to deliver less than 10 kW. Those that are, seem to be way over 10 kW, which is not only a waste unless you have twin chargers onboard the Model S, but puts you in a very different price category (I have seen $3500+ for heavy-duty commercial chargers). Of course, I could just get the Tesla High Power Wall Connector, but the connector end will not be compatible with other EVs on the market.
