I’m looking for an EVSE that I can configure and operate without an app - more importantly, that I can limit current without an app. The Grizzl-E Classic would be great - if only it sported a NACS connector. I don’t want to use an adapter for my daily charging, and I will use an existing 30A circuit to power the charger, so I need to set the charger to limit input to 24A.

So far I’m only finding “smart” EVSEs. I don’t want anyone having a chance to misconfigure the charger after initial setup, so the dip switches approach of the Grizzl-E is ideal.

So, any recommendations?

Edit: Found one! It can be turned into a dumb EVSE with a dip switch toggle. It can also be set for current limiting with dip switches. Had to dig through the manual for that (and all the others I tried, really). If I do change my mind later, I can enable the “smart” functions. I don’t think I’ll need them though - my car has all that and then some.

    I don’t know if it fits all the bills, but I would check out openEVSE. I believe its open source hardware and it has a webapp to control some things. I haven’t dug too far into it, but in looking to get a second evse and lean towards that one
