JuiceBox 40 vs ChargePoint Home Flex?

[vroomer]

I've had the JuiceBox 40 for a few months now. It works to charge the car fine. It's plugged into a 14-50 outlet on a 50A circuit in my garage. However the app is quite poor (as has been noted on other posts). It is nearly impossible to determine home costs of charging easily given the poor reporting.

My question to the group: should I get rid of the JuiceBox and switch to the ChargePoint Home Flex (plug-in)? I understand the app and Wifi interface is much much better. I don't mind paying more for a better product.

Did a mini description of the ChargePoint app features here - the Flex has been 100% reliable for coming on 2 years now - zero issues and excellent WiFi connection. Really solid piece of kit.

My JuiceBox has an app?

Never had a jukebox, but we have had the chargepoint home flex for 2 years now. Works great and haven't had any issues. In the app, it knows the time of day rates for my electric company, and we only charge at the lowest rate. When needed, I can easily override the schedule for one charge and charge the car, after charging it reverts back to the schedule.
