Retrofitting a JuiceBox

I have an old JuiceBox Classic 40a that just died, I believe its the main control board.


I'd like to retrofit the JuiceBox with the OpenEVSE controller. What parts from the openevse store would I need to do the retrofit? (beyond the controller)  I want to do a simple retrofit for now, until I get to ordering more parts for a second openevse.


One note: my Juicebox is not standard. Its been modified as I didn't want to keep the evse outdoors. 

I've been using it with a tetherless outdoor Type2 outlet. with a Type2-Type1 cable for my i3 and 500e


The plan is to have a 2nd complete openevse set up to use a tetherless outlet as well.

Thanks for the replies and suggestions everyone! I wasn't aware of the v0 option within the v1 product page. Still unsure what kind of relay the retrofit board will work with. I guess I'll need to weigh the value of retrofitting because it will require a bit more work with re-crimping the cables after trimming off the burnt ends..
