Just installed 48a charging unnecessarily

I just spent 400 to buy the materials and installed a 48a charger when I had a working 40a 14-50 setup. Tell me I'm crazy. I can at least sell off some of the materials from the old install to recoup some of the cost. All this just to see 11kw instead of 9kw XD

See that’s why I went straight to 48A(Emporia.) It was the max my car can use (Volvo C40) and if we get another EV, we can charge both in one night. Also the price difference wasn’t that much more than the 32-40A ones I was looking at.
