If the outlet is on a circuit that is not using anything else, or little else, you may be able to toggle it to 12A on the energy screen and charge a bit faster.
Welcome, and congrats on the new to you ride!

Finally joined the ranks of Bolt owners. Purchased a "new" 2020 LT that the dealer had used as a courtesy vehicle. Only 5k miles on it, perfect for my usual mission of in-town short hops. This is replacing my 2004 Prius with 95k miles that will likely go to my almost 16-yo once he starts driving.
Had a minor panic attack when I got home and the L1 charging cable wouldn't work in the garage outlet I plugged into (it's probably not properly grounded, the house was built in the early 1950s). But the outlet on the other side of the garage gave a green light on the charger and I'm charging at 8A.
Now to settle in for some manual reading.
If your daily use is under 50-60 miles, you may be able to get by on 12A.I'll have to check the circuit. I'm sure the garage door opener is on the same circuit but besides that probably just inside and outside lights (detached garage).
Since I don't get a QMerit install I'm not sure if I want to spring for a L2 right now as it would involve digging a trench as well as tunneling under the concrete patio at the back of the house to reach the panel in the basement.
