I keep thinking the same thing.  I was considering going all out and getting the Juicebox 75amp but I don't think I'll bother.

My thinking is that why future proof your home charger when the chances you'll need it to be fast should diminish as charging infrastructure improves. Also your new car will probably have a greater range where a full charge may be less necessary.

Currently I charge at home and at work with the Level 1 charger that came with the car and it has been enough that I have only had to charge at a Level 2 stations maybe 2 times in the 3 years I owned my Nissan Leaf and now that I have an i3 I am still thinking I probably don't need it.

I guess everyones needs will vary but for me I was able to fast charge for the first time last week and there seems to be enough fast charge options that if I am ever in a situation where charging at home and work are not enough at Level 1 I can just Level 3 charge as there are plenty of options close to me.

In my option save your money and get what will work best for your current situation.
