My 100A subpanel was in my garage.\r\n\r\nI had an electrician come and install a 240V/40A outlet about 2 meters from the sub panel. He went through sheetrock and didn't spackle (and neither have I). That was about $350.\r\n\r\nI then purchased a Level 2 portable charger on Amazon. The electrician and I chose the outlet type, in my case I chose a NEMA 6-50.

(Long story short, it's a \"non-refundable tax credit\" which means it screws over lower income folks. You probably need to be making at least $65K a year to fully exploit it.) Between that and the insurance, the 2020 is probably going to work out better for you right now. (Though get a quote from Travelers Insurance when you get a chance. They give a discount for EVs.)\r\n\r\nAs to the EVSE (the \"real \" name for the charging cord), here's the Nissan cord: https://parts.nissanusa.com/p/Nissan__/Portable-Charge-Cable-120V240V-Evse/79577769/296M1-5SA0A.html - it's $1650. It works with either 120V or 240V.\r\n\r\nI don't know what type of outlet you plan to plug the car into. A regular 120V outlet will add about 40-50 miles of range overnight. If you have access to a 240V outlet the car will charge faster. This $220 cable from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/MUSTART-Portable-Adjustable-Electric-Charging/dp/B077DC39J9/  isn't as nice or as fast as the Nissan cable, but it's one of the few there that actually works on a regular 120V outlet at 12 amps (most of the others are 16A and will trip your circuit breaker.)","subreddit_name":"leaf","author":"ToddA1966"},{"body":"Thanks.
