I'd have to disagree with your designation of Juicebox being the best on earth. Juicebox might have some features that are a tad "better" than other options; but in my eyes, a smart charger is a smart charger, and a dumb charger is a dumb charger.

A single point why I think the Chargepoint Home Flex is superior to all, comes down to the charging cord/cable selection Chargepoint made for the unit. The cable remains very flexible even in sub-zero conditions, where many other cable manufacturers offerings were very stiff or firm in similar conditions.
hea you have a right to you're own incorrect opinion, (some sarcasm there) I've had several Juice werks/Enels, all the juicys were dumb chargers, 2 were variable voltage portables, you can not beat the customer service...this is fact. the enel housing although plastic, is more rugged than any plastic housing out there. I had one juice werks, aluminum housing, left it out in the rain, no probs, typhoon, no probs. had a contacter problem, juice werks said, send them the charger, or they can send a contactor and walk me through replacement. can you name a single company that is better....let me heavily point out, the juicey was a dumb charger, the ENEL can be dumb as well, or you can use the smart features...hope i didn't hurt your feelings @connoisseurr
just stating hard facts,,,also they are on all the military bases on the east coast due to durability.

I need 32. Is it easy to adjust?
I just installed mine on Monday and changed it to 32. Was a piece of cake. Remove four screws from the front of the charger, flip the switches to up-down-up-down (on a gen 2 version, assuming it's oriented right-side-up - gen 2 is what Amazon should be sending now), put the cover back on and you're done.

The hardest part of the whole install was dealing with the charge cable "holster". That's mostly because you'll have to put the screws in by hand using a long screwdriver (they're awkwardly positioned) and - in my case - I was installing onto drywall, so also needed to deal with the plastic drywall anchors (hate those things).

End-to-end, I think installing the charger took me about 15 minutes.

If it took you 15 minutes, it will take me 30.? Not bad.

NEC 625.42 allows for load sharing and specifically mentions EVSEs.
It absolutely does, but that doesn’t change the branch circuit requirements.
