Reviews

eMotorWerks products received good reviews in the specialized media. According to CleanTechnica, "'eMotorWerks’ JuiceBox is the most advanced and intelligent Level 2 EVSE (“EV charger”) on the market today"[7]. According to InsideEVs "the people there seem to understand what the EV owner is looking for in an EVSE, and they have delivered it with the JuiceBox Pro 40, which is why I recommend it. The price is right, the size is right, it’s powerful and portable".[8] Wirecutter, a The New York Times Company, says "if your car supports faster charging (up to 9.6 kilowatts) or you’re interested in Wi-Fi connectivity, the eMotorWerks JuiceBox Pro 40 is a good investment. It provides more power for charging longer-range electric cars such as the Chevrolet Bolt or Tesla Model 3".[9]

JuiceNet

eMotorWerks is "the owner and operator of JuiceNet, an Internet of Things (IoT) platform for the smart management of EV charging and other distributed energy storage facilities. Through the JuiceNet platform, these facilities can be remotely controlled and aggregated for grid balancing purposes relying on unidirectional and bidirectional (vehicle-to-grid, V2G) electricity flows."[10]

JuiceNet enabled Charging stations pay the user back in average EV driver $133/year for consuming cleaner (and cheaper) electricity. "the average EV owner returning about that amount over 3 years.[11]
