    Tesla CCS1 Adapter Not working

    Did you try rebooting the car? When I first got my ccs adapter it didn’t work, on my second or third location I rebooted the car and bam started working. Since I’ve charged around 30 times from CCS and I believe only had to reboot one other time for it.

    6/3 or 4/3 on 60amps

    Man you guys are quick lol, I edited my post to say nm-b in like 60 seconds from post.

    6/3 or 4/3 on 60amps

    Yeah I didn’t notice the CA, had just edited my post to say I meant nm-b romex and then noticed yourr reply. No clue what nmd90 is or what its temp rating is.

    6/3 or 4/3 on 60amps

    There really isn’t a disagreement, the code is the code. 6/3 isn’t the issue, it’s 6/3 nm-b romex that’s the problem. I agree a lot of electricians may install it or say it’s fine for a 60amp circuit, which it is allowed when you’re talking about ovens and such. But if you’re talking about...

    I regret my Model Y purchase because of seat comfort and seating position problems

    I also think the Y seat should be able to lower 2-3” more. I think I have a similar build, just shy of 6’2, 195, 30-31” inseam. I find like I do in most cars the answer is to lean the back seat. Not great for posture or very safe to have the seatbelt up on your belly, but it’s the only way I...

    Highest mileage driven so far & reliability issue’s long term.

    So one thing is there aren’t any 2170 packs over 5 years old yet for the 3/Y. There are plenty of 18650 model S’s though and quite a few have needed full pack replacement in the 7-9 year range. One would assume they’ve learned from the older S packs that failed and the newer packs will last...

    Alternative condo charging solution to ChargePoint?

    I have used weBoost | Cell Phone Signal Boosters for Home, Cars, RVs & More with pretty good success before. They have commercial applications, but if memory serves me I’ve just bought some of their home units $5-600 (a few years ago), and used 100’ coax cable. Put the antenna up against a...

    Model S Plaid Didn't Make It Home

    That really really sucks! This is way too common of a problem. Hate to give you more bad news, but if you want that neck snap your only option is to keep the car. They permanently retired Top Thrill Dragster yesterday.

    Standard Range AWD Model Y inventory priced $61,990 USD

    Congratulations, hope you get a new VIN soon! As you’re looking through the forums take note of the range threads. You say 279 is more the enough, but the reality is that’s going to be closer to 180-200 and 100-140 in the winter. As long as you don’t commute more then 100 miles a day and if...

    Second thoughts on Telsa charger installation

    Does the Build back/inflation bill have one? Because the old one expired last year, not sure there are any Federal rebates at the moment. OP, I did the work charging thing and trickle charging at home for 6+ months and it worked. But there was definitely some times where it got annoying...

    22 MYLR - Still Missing Games & Controller Support

    I’m not sure what the current lead time is, but a year or two ago it wouldn’t be uncommon to sit on that old firmware for a few weeks. Once you make it into the rotation it will be normal. It’s like they only once a month add new cars or something.

    Used Model Ys available

    These prices just seem crazy to me. I bought my LR with 20’s, tow hitch for 10k less last year.

    Road Trip Experience + Roof Cargo Box Efficiency

    I wouldn’t discount the weight in the car. I have the same box and if it’s empty and normal driving it doesn’t add very much but some wind noise, maybe 10-15%. If the car is loaded for a trip I definitely notice the hit.

    Is there anyway to force ONLY off-peak charging?

    This is kind of blowing my mind they don’t have this nailed down. I have a chargepoint and it just works, never charges between 11am-7pm unless I start it in app or plug the car in twice within a minute. I tried using Tesla to control it but found the chargepoint more reliable. If you set...

    MYLR/P Winter Range : will it make 300km/187mi?

    Was just going to say have you looked if there are any CCS stations and maybe get an adapter. I know I wouldn’t make it in my MYLR with 20’s and winter tires, I averaged 338 wh/mi last winter. Did you check PlugShare to see if there’s any L2 chargers along the way? A restaurant with a 11kW...
