It doesn't show it as a sale price, but the listed price for the JuiceBox evse on Costco is now $530 instead of their recent price of $600.

It's still not the lowest they've had it ($500) but the it's lowest it's been in quite a while. In early March they had it on sale for $550.

I'm surprised these have not come down in price.

Tesla manages to sell 48amp wall connector for $425, and a 32amp mobile connector for $225 regular prices

Why do other brands cost so much more than equivalent Tesla versions ? Is there some extra features or materials these have?

Economies of scale?

With Ford and GM agreeing to Tesla's NACS standard going forward, these things should be dirt cheap.

This specific brand has a deal with certain states or power companies. I get about a cent back for each kwh I charge. It's still not really worth it for the money back alone. But it also qualified for a $500 rebate, the rebate doesn't apply to any chargers over 32amp for my utility

One possible reason is that Tesla wall chargers are hard wired. They don't use the nema standard. Another one is the mobile charger is a dumb charger. It doesn't have any of the functionality of a smart charger.

If you are a Georgia Power customer, this charger is $349.

The ChargePoint 50A is only $449 (OOS right now) and would be more future proof for the higher charging capacities (e.g. Chevrolet Bolt can charge at 48 A). However, the 50A charger will require a lower gauge wire and larger amperage breaker but worth the investment IMO.

They priced it with rebates in mind.
