I looked at open EVSE and the "advanced series" looks like a great product. But it costs more and doesn't have the right plug. The latter is a minor thing, but if I don't have to change out an outlet, with tight wiring, I'll be happier :) I'll take a look at the product details again and see if there are any compelling features.

I have two of these, of various vintages, and they work great, but I'm a fan of 
open source stuff:

I also have a Clipper Creek 30amp one that has been rock solid.

My ESVE stopped working. I'm planning to replace it and would like some

The low voltage circuit blew a fuse. I put in a new one and it practically 
exploded. Obviously a dead short which, I presume, means the power supply went 
bad. I'm sure I could replace that but I'm not sure I want to spend the time 
trying to find the part and to do the swap.

I've looked online at several J1772 ESVEs. I have a 40A circuit with a nema 
6-50 socket (I think). I need a 20'-25' cable. Will be outdoor.

$275, up to 40A (input or output, don't know), 6-50 option, compact.

Grizzl-E GR1-14-24-P, GR1-6-24-P

$395, 32A output on 40A circuit, 6-50 option, reasonably compact.

Kind of expensive: Juicebox 40

$649, 40A circuit, 14-50 plug (I'll have to rewire socket), moderately compact.

Consider: Lectron 30A
https://ev-lectron.com/products/lectron-portable-electric-car-charger-32a
$306. Can't find any specs, which gives strong negative vibes.

Any suggestions ?
