These are great threads, like when they pop up, difference of changing a flat vs plug. every EV I've owned/own I have a bag with a awsome compressor, 50 plugs, the the reamer, and plug tool, a mallet, and vise grips.

is that like killing two stones with one bird

with your best dukes of hazard scream...

If you get a tire slime kit, with the compressor, you'll be golden, I recommend vise grips too, cause if it's a screw...hard to get out..how good are plugs, I got a hole on big island Hawaii from a lava rock, stuffed ten plugs in there to get home (shipped car between islands) I forgot it was...

That is a huge correct answer----(<<..<<)😂😂 I left in 93...seems to be a good decision for everyone!!!!! my closest service center, is about 1.5 hours away, In one of the busiest cities on the planet....Love the Tesla, all hail our lord and savior Elon Musk

Move out of MA...problem solved....

Just got back from two weeks of work, Oahu/Kauai. I got my first ev while living on Oahu in 2015, and at the time, there was a handful of Electric cars, and a few chargers (level 2) We moved away in 2019 and at the time, the number of EV's in the islands was inching up, my job enabled me to...

I guess one huge thing would be what your comfort requirements are, you mentioned the Helio...their tear drops are super small, also you did mention you are hunting a model S...one thing to many travelers do, is they set a destination at like 400-600 miles out and HAVE TO BE THERE IN TWO HOURS...

I'd highly consider also a NUCAMP TAG AND a ROCKWOOD GEO PRO 12RK

Also, consider renting..

The Helio isn't bad, the four we had on the radar before going to Japan were ( also accounting for weight of camper + added stuff) another MYPOD, perfect all around, a few stops we just parked and slept, other times set up the tent Happier Camper- has a great mix of simplicity-yet out doorsy TAB...

you're wicked pissa...I see chargers in the cape are hit or miss. we went with a Y, cause we take a tone of road trips, and it's a good mix of crossover/space, and can tow a light camper...( I escaped ma a while back)

Bit late to this. How big a camper are you looking for? We lived out of this for months- lost 30 miles of range, two ( won't say grown ups due to immature behavior) full sized people and a 65 pound dog. the camper comes in at 400 pounds, can move by hand, usually stayed at camp grounds, to...

Update to my Supercharger number here in japan, there's 200 chargers total, some single towers some with as many as 10. what is reported is "TESLA HAS INSTALLED IT'S 50TH SUPERCHARGER" but that is a number for a whole bank of chargers. CHADEMO still outnumbers greatly due to a number of...

Love the Avatar

plugshare out here is about 60% accurate, I spend a lot of time either moving THE ORANGE ICON, or updating google maps. Also about 500 fast ""FREE"" chargers have been deactivated, so I try and update 3 chargers a day out here so anyone road tripping will have accuracy. some chargers are...

I've shot him a few messages, no reply yet. I'm in the kanagawa area, but go to yokohama now and then. Nissan HQ is pretty cool to visit. I remember in 2010 when they unveiled the leaf and this new high speed charger that the world will use. it's great there's two brand new Super chargers in...

correct 50 kw = 50 kw, although sometimes you get less, but CHADEMO was always 50

The two EA's that showed in KITSAP were a huge relief...all we had for a very long time were a spread of level 2 and the slowly dying CHADEMO, we had a CCS car when the EA in port orchard came, but left the area a few months later. really glad there's ""NOW"" SUPER-DUPER charger in the area

WINCO's is open 24/7 LIKE 5 MIN WALK....shouldn't be to cracky headed

not only is CHADEMO FASTER (50KW) every charger i've used in the last 2 years have worked...not playing the shakey 8 ball like electrify america...I did come across two chademo chargers that were down, infront of the NISSAN factory...

Thanx for the reply, at current there's like I believe 2000 Superchargers here in japan, and over 10,000 chademo, so on more adventurous trips, 30 min at CHADEMO will help, plus on the highway rest stop all have chargers, and they are like little villages

Drivers, looking to see who has used a CHADEMO adapter...here in Japan it's handy to have, I'll have one shortly, have to go to the shop and get the software update. Seeing if there is anyone who have used it, and what were your results. I'm aware in the US CHADEMO is dying, but here in JAPAN...

You should come visit...the last rally had over 500 in attendance, course the parking garage could only accommodate 200----it's tight here

cool thanx, doesn't appear to be much activity on "HERE" see if we can change that.

I agree the CCS adapter needs an extension, I have a few level 3 adapters that have a 1 Meter (3 feet) cord. I've seen some angst at the chargers, some park sideways some take 2 spots. what is the right answer?

DO not have your SI hold the tire in the passenger seat, this makes for an unhappy trip

Does anyone think it has to do with the ""GOV"" pushing the EV's? Also if you look around any forum, there's bashing of the EA chargers, so one scare will snowball into where do I charge?

Glad there's finally a fast charger instead of the fading CHADEMO at the Y, the EA off the highway isn't easy to get at, but hea, another Walmart to visit.

Konnichi-wa greetings, New owner on the 1st of May. 2024 Tesla Model Y AWD. I have/still have owned several EV's but was time to join the TESLA party and AMP away. Looking forward to hearing from Owners around the globe. Also I noticed there's no Japan specific forum, have to change that cause...
