Quick Charge Power will now offer a special "Timer Edition" of the 40 amp J1772 plug and cable assembly for your EVSE that will work even if your EV goes "asleep" when not charging (like the Toyota Rav4 EV).

With our unique configuration, you can manipulate the proximity signal at the relay end of your EVSE with your own timer (not supplied). We will ship the "Timer Edition" with the the proximity signal connected to the blue wire and ground/earth connected to the orange wire. You simply place your timer between the blue and orange wires. If you don't use a timer, you can just connect the orange and blue together at the relay end of the EVSE and it will work normally, even without a timer.

Your EV will charge until you press the disconnect button on the J1772 handle / plug or until the EV automatically stops when your EV's battery is full. You can also add a 330 ohm resistor and normally closed switch in series to make an EVSE disconnect switch anywhere you'd like, even inside your house. It could also be connected to temperature sensors that will shut down the charge anytime one of them sense an overtemp.

In addition, you can place a second timer with a 330 ohm resistor in parallel to automatically stop the charge per your schedule and needs (for instance, to stay within a public utility "Time of Use") even if the EV isn't fully charged.

You control the start time on your schedule AND wake up the Rav4 EV / Tesla Model S / X, etc. This feature is only $10 (timer not included) in addition to the retail price of the 40 amp J1772 plug / cable assembly. This feature not available with the LED light feature.

No other J1772 plug / cable assembly has this feature.
