THE LCS-20 BOLDLY BREAKS THE PRICE FLOOR IN EV CHARGING MARKET

CLIPPERCREEK LAUNCHES A $395, LEVEL 2 EV CHARGING STATION

AUBURN, California, June 10th, 2014.

Making its debut is ClipperCreek’s $395 Level 2, 240V EV charging station, available for immediate delivery, directly from the factory in Auburn, CA. The LCS-20 is the first major brand Level 2 electric vehicle charging station to break through the $400 barrier. With 22 feet of charging cable and a “no strings attached” 3-year manufacturer’s warranty, the LCS-20’s durability and usability is on par with what customers have come expect from ClipperCreek products.

ClipperCreek’s focus on continuous value improvement for electric vehicle customers is unprecedented in the market. Charging at 15Amps and 240Volts, the 3.6KW LCS-20 has plenty of power for cost conscious customers who want to upgrade from their 120V charge cord and cut charging time by 60%.

“We task ourselves to constantly bring the next level of customer value to the market.” said Jason France, President and Founder of ClipperCreek, “After an in depth analysis, the ClipperCreek team realized a 3.6KW station could be offered without compromising quality or durability through a combination of volume pricing, slightly shorter cable, and 15Amp charge rate.”

In addition to saving money on the charging station, and cutting charge time by 60%, customers buying the LCS-20 save on installation costs when compared to other products on the market. The LCS-20 is delivered with a flexible conduit that is easily wired into an existing junction box, with no assembly required! The compact, tough, and weatherproof enclosure is mounted with just four screws. An optional connector holster is available for just $19.

A REAL PRODUCT, FOR THE REAL WORLD. The compact, 3.6kW, Level 2, LCS-20 from ClipperCreek is designed to take the wear-and-tear of everyday use in all environments. Its tough NEMA 4 outdoor rated enclosure ensures you can install this unit anywhere with confidence.

CLIPPERCREEK LAUNCHES COMMERCIAL HCS-40 SINGLE & DUAL PEDESTAL MOUNTED CHARGING STATIONS – Starting at $1309

Making its debut this month is ClipperCreek’s HCS-40 Single and Dual Pedestal Mounted charging stations. This new low cost charging system provides commercial consumers with the option of mounting 1 or 2 rugged 240V charging stations to a single pedestal, and up to two additional 120V outlets, giving customers the option to charge four vehicles from one post.

Built specifically for the commercial market, the pedestal mounted charging stations package all of ClipperCreek’s “best in class” standard product features, like a 3-year warranty, a fully sealed, rugged NEMA 4 station enclosure, and 25 feet of charge cable. Starting at $1309, this is the best valued commercial solution on the market.

The dual mounted HCS pedestal reduces the total installation expense associated with trenching and concrete slabs by offering almost a two for one installation cost. ClipperCreek’s 25 feet of charging cable allows for one installation point to service multiple vehicle parking spots conveniently.

“By creating a low cost, dual point pedestal charging station, we have provided commercial consumers an option to double the number of parking lot stations with minimal additional cost,” states ClipperCreek’s CEO, Jason France. “This is great news for our fleet customers or any company that wants to offer parking lot EV charging as an amenity.”

CLIPPERCREEK DONATES EV CHARGING STATIONS

HCS-40 Pedestal Mount by ClipperCreek

 

Earlier this month it was announced that ClipperCreek, Inc., will donate 2 EV charging stations to the city of Auburn, California. This story has since been published in the Auburn Journal. The complete article is shared below.

Auburn amps up the draw for electric cars

2 charging stations coming to City Hall, Multi Modal Station in 2015

By: Amy Lobenberg, Journal Staff Writer

2 charging stations coming to City Hall, Multi Modal Station in 2015

Thanks to the combination of a $10,000 grant and two electronic vehicle charging stations, donated by an up-and-coming local business, the city of Auburn is poised to ride the wave of the future by inviting alternative-energy motorists to visit town.

Mayor Bridget Powers and City Councilman Mike Holmes worked together to find funding for the $ 13,570 vehicle charging stations project, which was unanimously approved Monday night by the council.

Holmes, who is chairman of the Placer County Air Pollution District, said he encouraged the city to apply for the program’s Clean Air Grant, which it received in April in the amount of $10,000. The additional $3,570 will come out of the city general fund.

Powers said the two chargers needed to complete the project, which cost $1,309 apiece, are being donated by ClipperCreek Inc. owner Jason France.

“Many years ago, Jason said to me, ‘You know, if you want to put charging stations in and if you have built the facilities to get the power and all that, I can provide the charging stations,’” said Powers. “I really appreciate what ClipperCreek is doing for us. It’s great that a local business is doing something to support Auburn.”

France’s company has been in town since 2006, and France has been in the electric car business since 1994. He said Tuesday that he is happy to help the city with alternative fueling options.

“I told Bridget and the city that we would definitely donate two of our HCS-40 models and pedestals at no cost because we love Auburn, the citizens and electric cars.”

The two devices are set to be placed in the parking lot of City Hall and in the parking lot of the Multi Modal Station near Nevada Street and Blocker Drive.

Council members said Monday that they hope the devices boost local tourism and the economy.

The two stations will be open to public use and will be offered free of charge.

Bernie Schroeder, director of Public Works, said the components needed to install a fee system would be too costly for the city. She added that the stations would require little or  no upkeep.

“There is very little maintenance involved whatsoever,” Schroeder said. “They are foolproof minus any vandalism that may occur.”

France said he felt Auburn is making the right move by including more charging stations within the city. He noted that he has several of the devices in the parking lot of his business, at 11850 Kemper Road, which are used frequently by employees and visitors.

“We get a significant number of people who stop here on their way to Tahoe,” said France. “Then, while they are waiting, they walk across the street to Chevy’s or one of the other restaurants.”

France added that, based on market research, electric cars are growing in popularity, which has helped his business become a competitive, worldwide presence.

“This is the decade of the electric car,” said France. “I am sure of it.”

City Administrative Analyst Megan Siren said the two Auburn charging stations will be up and running by May 31, 2015.

ClipperCreek Products Meet US Building Codes for the USA

AUBURN, California, May 7, 2010.  ClipperCreek, announced today that it has begun delivering the only UL listed, fully SAE compliant charging stations on the market.  The ClipperCreek CS-40 charge stations are the only stations available for immediate delivery that have been tested and met the requirements of the National Electric Code (NEC625).  These units include the universal standard electronic interface and connector, making the CS-40 compatible with all major automaker electric vehicles.

The CS-40 (30 Amp charge rate) line of charge stations from ClipperCreek is in compliance with NEC625 and SAE-J1772™, which ensures its compatibility with the Nissan Leaf, the Chevy Volt, Ford Fusion BEV and all vehicles coming from major automakers.

“While it is exciting to have one station that can charge all new OEM vehicles,” commented ClipperCreek CEO and President, Jason France. “The most important thing is the safety listing of the units.  To the best of our knowledge this is the only station that is certified to be installed in the US.”

ClipperCreek has a line of UL listed products well suited for use in residential as well as public charging settings.   These units are designed to be installed either with a free-standing pedestal or on an existing structure or wall.

“I think the most compelling aspect of our product is that it is made in the USA.” said David Packard, VP of Sales and Marketing at ClipperCreek, “Not only is the unit assembled in California, but all the components, except the vehicle connector, are from US based suppliers and manufacturers.”
