Scooterstang, first nice truck.

You don't have issues because you actually know how to fix things when they do go wrong. I could be wrong but I'll bet you could even wire 220v if you wanted and electric car (you wouldn't have to ask somone to do it for you). Sometimes the proven KISS philosphy works, and look at you, doing your part for the environment by keeping that 1970 truck out of the landfill

Told him about Lenhart saying couldn’t be done where I wanted it. He went up into the attic and said of course it can be done. He had me order the wire from Amazon and a week later it was done right next to my car. Professional and neat. Very reasonable prices. 352-446-8140. Corrected work done by Lenhart for less money.

If you need an honest gentleman to do your electrical project...add an outlet, fan, etc. Dan is your man. Quality work at a good price. He came out to do an estimate on adding a dedicated 20 amp circuit for new electric golf cart and did the work right then after giving me two options with two different prices. Told me costs for each part as well as labor.

I was thinking about putting the unit next to the garage door on the side of the car that the port is on. This would allow me to charge a visitors (my brother) car in the driveway.

If you take time to research modern EVs you will learn that common sense points to an EV future.

I put on my thinking cap and didn't have to do anything to the garage, I am retro fitting this to the front tire
