A few people posted about the switch from Juice Box to VoltiE. I wonder if people are registering. Like the other posters, I have been using my charger as a "dumb" charger and letter my MME handle the brains. I think I will register with them. I don't see the downside although I don't really see an upside either. I will let you know if I regret doing this, or it works out somehow.

I registered. The only functionality I want to keep is the ability to log the kwh totals of my charge sessions and change the amp setting from the app without having to open the box and change dip switches like some brands. I don't schedule charging from the JB. I hope that VoltiE will at least keep the app available.

When is the juicbox app going to stop working?
I don't know if it's going to stop working. I somtimes dial down the amps it will draw. That function still works. Everything else I do with the MME functions.

What would be the reason? I see no value in a "smart" charger any longer.

My main reason for registering is in case they take over the app and issue updates. In the email, the cite that as one of the reasons to join them.

They look iffy.

I am likely going to put in the OpenEVSE boards at $99 each, as soon as they lay out the steps to do load sharing and see the data.
