Yes and No. a $122 savings is good deal, but how does the warranty work? a $822 gizmo with a 1 year warranty is scary enough...
I'd like one, but 40 amp charging meets 99% of my needs, and I don't carry the UMC in the car 24/7 anyway...
I'm sure at some point I'll end up with one, but at the moment my budget is tapped.
Well, I'm a "business hardass". So, Warranties don't scare me.
Everything manufactured in the US has a sort of "hidden" manufacturer's warranty. So, despite the limit they impose on said item, of 1 year, if you speak loud enough, and through the right channels, you don't have to worry about your item being "out of warranty", and can get it serviced or replaced, regardless of whether it's out of warranty or not. I haven't spent a cent on my 60 since I bought it, and the warranty is still good, but I've bought other things, like cell phones, etc, that went WAY over warranty, and by speaking to the right people, at the right level, through the right channels, I've never had an issue.
40% amp meets 99% of my needs on a normal day. I'm a single parent, so I drop off my kid, go to work, go to lunch, pick up my kid, go to the store maybe, and come home. MANY times I've come home with 10 miles left in my battery.
As a matter of fact TODAY, I came home with 4%. So, if I come home, and I want to go somewhere, it'd be nice to only have to wait ONE hour to charge 56 miles, instead of 2, which would be the difference between being able to go to the grocery store or not.
I'm getting one in the next couple of weeks, and installing the dual charger. I'll let you know how it is.
