Leviton Charging Station

I've been around this forum long enough to see plenty of "revolutionary" EV tech come and go. Now, with all the buzz around Leviton's charging station, I'm left wondering: are we really looking at a solid step forward or just another rebranded product hoping to cash in on current trends? Most of the chatter focuses on aesthetics and integration with smart home systems, but what about real-world reliability, security of the firmware, and, really, under-the-hood quality?

Does anyone have hands-on experience with these units, especially in less-than-ideal conditions? Are there any red flags in terms of performance or long-term durability that haven't been swept under the rug by marketing? I’m not convinced that this is going to be the game changer that everyone’s making it out to be—sometimes it feels like just more hype instead of real innovation. What are your thoughts?

I get your skepticism. I’ve been testing one under demanding conditions, and while it performs well most of the time, I’ve noticed that firmware updates aren’t as rapid as I’d like for critical security fixes. The integrated smart features are neat, but until we see longer-term reliability, I'm staying on the cautious side. Has anyone else had similar experiences?

I’ve noticed that while the unit handles everyday use pretty well, the firmware’s patch cycle still seems a bit sluggish, which might be concerning from a security perspective. Reliability seems fine under normal conditions but could be tested further in more extreme environments. Testing in diverse scenarios would help clarify its long-term durability.
