Sold: Oregon ChargePoint Home Flex - $300

[jjswan33]

Hey All. Selling a used ChargePoint Home Flex. It is setup for Nema 14-50 plug in but could be hardwired to a 60A circuit to max out the Rivian‘s L2 charging capability.

My new Hyundai came with a free ChargePoint Home Flex and money off installation so I got one hard wired and don’t need this one.

Asking $300 obo local pickup preferred.

Hi,
How long is the cable? Are you willing to ship it to CA?

I’d have to measure, I know it’s pretty long and actually in California this week so won’t be able to measure.

 

[VNCR1S]

No worries. If it is 23ft or more i’ll take it.

According to their website it is exactly 23ft.

This is still available. Still prefer local sale, great charger at this price.

 

[R.I.P.]

Great EVSE for anybody that is looking for one.

I don't need this charger, but I think I could use it.

I live more than two hours from the OP, I don't get to PDX often, and I don't yet understand all the "pros and cons" of ChargePoint Home Flex.

So I'm not making a firm offer at this time. Just interested.

I've sent the OP a direct message in "Conversations" section. If you're more decisive than I am, for you -- this is your chance!

I did see your message but unclear what information you are after. Happy to answer any specific questions you have to the best of my knowledge.

Thanks, @jjswan33, for the reply!

This would be a second charger for us, but we only have one 40-amp circuit with NEMA 6-50 plug. Because my public power company doesn't have time-of-day pricing, a programmable charger wouldn't save us money.

***

ChargePoint site information is fragmented, but I was able to find (mostly from State of Charge ) and ChargePoint Web site, that:

Original price is $599 for NEMA 14-50 or NEMA 6-50 plug-in, so $300 is a great deal for anyone who can pick up directly from you and already has or will install a 14-50 socket/circuit.

User orders EITHER J-1772 OR NACS cable (23') and connector -- it doesn't come with both. Swapping appears easy if you have both parts; ChargePoint appears to charge $199 for the charger-to-vehicle NACS cable. I need J-1772 at this time, so I wouldn't have to buy new cable/connector.

User orders EITHER hardwired version ($50 less) OR 14-50 plug OR 6-50 plug. I don't see any way to purchase the 6-50 plug/cable that would allow me to use this Home Flex, let alone switch from one charger to the other, without installing a new socket

Weather resistance is Level 3, which may be excellent for outdoor use in Portland but that might be a problem for outdoor use on the windy Northwest Coast. On the coast, the Home Flex looks like more of an indoor charger than an outdoor charger. That rules out installing it at our business.

***

The big advantage, compared to my current charger, is the Home Flex's ability to program charging times. That would sometimes be nice for me, minimizing the amount of time a vehicle is near 100% -- but it would save a LOT of money for someone in Portland, where "time of day" pricing gives very low rates between 10 pm and 6 am. https://portlandgeneral.com/about/i... call these periods:,times when demand is low)

Bottom line: I agree with you and @R.I.P. -- this is a terrific deal! But not for me.

Maybe for a friend in Portland or Olympia -- I've emailed two of my friends. Consider DM'ing or emailing me with your contact information if you want me to give it to my friends.

Perhaps this information will help someone else decide to buy it.

I hope you find the right buyer! Very best wishes!

My friends in Olympia don't need another charger, @jjswan33, but I'm bumping this thread because you're offering a great deal for anyone who can install a NEMA 14-50 socket for it.

Very best wishes!

Thanks for the bump. FYI to all it can also be hardwired if someone wanted that setup.

And, if someone wants a 6-50 plug for it, I have one that I'm willing to give away. (I bought the 6-50 version because it was cheaper than the others, but as I hardwired mine, I don't need the plug).

 

[Dave Cundiff]

Very kind of you, @SwaziCAR! I don't think ChargePoint sells the plugs separately.

With a 6-50 plug I can justify paying @jjswan33's price -- if he's still willing to sell.

I have a trip to the Portland SC in April and can meet you then. I'll send a DM or start a 3-way conversation.

Enjoying the Rivian owner community!
