Welcome to Legacy EV the Valley leader in charger maintenance and services, your one stop shop for all your Electric Vehicle Charging needs. We offer the following services: Level 2 EV Charger Installation Charger Service and Maintenance Electric Panel Upgrades Home wiring and re-wiring needs

"EV Clients Beware – Is the minimal savings worth it in the long haul? I want to share my experience with Legacy EV so other EV owners can avoid the stress, wasted time, and financial headache I’ve endured. What looked like a promising purchase has turned into weeks of frustration, misleading promises, and an outright refusal to take responsibility. The Product Failure I purchased a Tesla Universal Wall Connector from Legacy EV. Almost immediately, the unit began failing intermittently — sometimes charging, sometimes not, with error codes like a blinking blue light appearing randomly. Despite having a licensed, bonded, and insured electrician (the same one who installed it) return multiple times to confirm the installation was correct, the issues continued. This was clearly not an installation problem. The Runaround Legacy EV claimed that help would be “readily available” and that a full refund would be honored if the product was defective. Instead, I’ve been met with endless voicemail prompts, unreturned calls, and English-speaking representatives who are nearly impossible to reach. When I finally did get through, I was told to contact Tesla, who then redirected me to GMC, who — unsurprisingly — refused to help since it’s not a GMC product. Misleading Sales Practices When I asked directly who owned the company, President and Cofounder Mavrick Knoles didn’t disclose his own role — only for me to later find out the truth. This lack of transparency, combined with false assurances about refund and support policies, raises serious ethical concerns. The “Options” They Offered Were Insulting • File a warranty claim with Tesla • Return it with a restocking fee (despite being told a full refund would be honored if defective or was not working properly with a non Telsa EV) • Buy another unit from them (why would I when the first one was a disaster?) The Reality Legacy EV’s business model seems to hinge on dodging responsibility and making customers jump through hoops until they give up. I have detailed documentation, photographs, and time logs of every interaction, and I am now pursuing complaints with the BBB, the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, local news outlets, and preparing for legal action to recover my costs and damages. If you value honesty, timely customer service, and getting what you paid for, do NOT trust Legacy EV. The small initial savings are absolutely not worth the nightmare that may follow. #LegacyEV #EVCharging #ConsumerWarning #BadBusiness #EVOwnersBeware #TeslaChargerFail"

Modern Technology and Old-Fashioned Customer Service. For more than 60 years, George Brazil Plumbing & Electrical has been providing old fashioned, high quality, professional customer service in the plumbing and electrical service industry. Our mission is to foster an enjoyable working environment while creating comfortable, healthy, safe and energy efficient places to live and work in the Valley of the Sun.

"DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY OR PATRICK RILEY/ISLEY'S I had an extremely disappointing and unprofessional experience with Patrick Riley during the installation of a new AC unit, which cost $17,000. I initially called George Brazil but was told their sister company Patrick Riley was available sooner. Despite the substantial investment, the service was far below what was promised and honestly worse than a McDonald's employee. We started off the day around 7am when Ivan rang my doorbell, upon answering I was given a finger to hold on as he was on the phone asking a buddy to bring him Ibuprofen (for what I can only assume was a hangover as he later laid in my lawn throwing up). This was just the beginning of a series of issues that made the entire process a nightmare. All three technicians entered and exited my house with their shoes on, leaving dirt and debris throughout my home. They were unprofessional and did not know what they were doing. I overheard the technicians discussing their mistakes and expressing uncertainty about how to complete various tasks. Their conversations included phrases like “It’s whatever”, "we can make that work" and “You need to put it on the bulb, the bulb, the bulb. You really gotta start learning these words." reflecting their lack of professionalism and knowledge when it came to installation. The installation, which was supposed to take the length of the work day, stretched to 13 hours and still wasn't completed (and isn't at this point, a week later). They left caulking on my floors and in the garage, without cleaning up or communicating either. They left my bathroom sink dirty and broke the soap dispenser in there, again with no communication. My driveway was a mess the entire time, with the contents of their three vans laid out across my cul-de-sac. I had run to the store to get them electrolytes in addition to the 6+ water bottles they each got, and they were so kind to leave the empty Body Armor bottles I had purchased sitting in the driveway for hours. I received no confirmation paperwork of this transaction (quite a shady business practice imo). They left the customer warranty booklet on a shelf in the garage rather than giving it to me directly and nobody taught me how to use the new thermostat. Additionally, there were white paint marks left all over my garage, driveway, and entryway, which they had admitted to knowing they left after the fact, but no communication was made to me. In the middle of the day, Ivan (who asked for Ibuprofen as he arrived) was found throwing up in my front lawn by my neighbors. No communication was made to me whatsoever, and he continued to touch my property (including my thermostat) with his unwashed hands. I'm a very reasonable person and am able to forgive a lot, but the lack of communication on all fronts is gravely unprofessional. Throughout the job, the technicians took multiple phone calls, some of which included the repeated use of the n-word in front of an underage child. They lied about many aspects of the job and have consistently failed to return my calls, providing excuse after excuse for why the issues have not been resolved. Based on my experience, I strongly advise potential customers to seek alternative providers. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. What was supposed to be a day has turned into over a week with no resolution in sight. The lack of professionalism, respect, and competence demonstrated by Patrick Riley and George Brazil is unacceptable, and I hope my review deters others from making the same mistake."

Family owned business with over 30 years experience. We do not sub-contract our work. All work will be done by a licensed professional electrician. We accept cash, check, card, and have financing options. Once the work is complete we will collect payment in full.

"They came out and fixed our problem quickly, they charged me 1850.00 to change 6 fuses .i was out of town so I couldn’t do it myself. These fuses cost roughly 30.00 each, I believe they took advantage of our desperate situation.they did the same for the rest of the mall also , someone stole our electric disconnects so I called on behalf of the mall , they charged everyone else roughly 4800.00 to add the stolen fuses . This is not a company that is part of the community, terrible business practices with the gouging.. there was also spares in the bottom of the box and they took them and charged the others for new ones"

"Still incomplete its a mess not up to code for city or ROC. Richards son Jacob Laird was to replace the 30 50 amp and 110 outlet for the receptacle in three lots in rv park following a fire. Jacob demanded to be paid upfront and I reluctantly did so. He chose to spend the money for materials on alcohol where he drank so much he went to the hospital 2 times missing city inspection and SRP 2 times. This began in May 2025 and is ongoing. He has been irresponsible unreliable and dishonest leaving me in a predicament and unsafe conditions violating ROC code of conduct and workmanship specs. This is what he left with after spending over 9k to have this replaces as we had it prior to fire. Super frustrated. Richard did work prior and didn't have an issue Jacob on the other hand is not capable or doesn't have the desirebto do quality work. This has cost our park money and its ongoing to date. Im not saying he's the worst I've ever heard of or seen but he better hope the worst one dont die. "

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Simple moves on the same base or within a few feet will not take long, roughly three to four hours. Larger moves onto a new wall or transitioning a box from inside to outside will take 8 to 12 hours to complete. Ask your electrician for a time estimate prior to installation.

Some warning signs that your electrical meter box is overloaded include frequent circuit tripping, scorch or burn marks, and flickering lights. You may also notice a burning scent coming from the electrical panel. Keep in mind that a circuit breaker trips as a protection measure; it turns itself off to prevent potential fires.

When wiring a switch, the power typically comes into the receptacle first. The neutral wire goes straight to the outlet, while the hot wire is split. You'll need a wire nut to splice the hot wire back to one of the receptacles, but you will also tie another wire into that same wire nut and run to the switch. That way, you can control the flow of electricity to that particular receptacle by turning the switch on and off.

You should never plug a normal 120v appliance into a special 240v outlet, as it can quickly burn out the appliance. This will cause irreparable damage to the appliance and, in worse case scenarios, cause damage to your circuit breaker. Check your appliance’s rating before plugging it into a 220v outlet to avoid electrical disaster.

If your breaker box won’t reset, stay on, trips when overloaded, or gets seriously damaged, you will need to replace the breakers or possibly the entire panel. A damaged breaker can lead to a fire, so it’s best to err on the safe side and look into replacement. Hire a professional electrician to replace a breaker box to ensure your personal and property safety.
