    Aftermarket mobile charger

    I imported an e-station ELPA (EVR3), adjustable from 6a single phase to 32a three phase 9 years ago. It has been faultless, has been used to cross the Nullarbor 3 times, enabled our trip to Birdsville and well used for other long distance trips. Still used and very reliable, mostly at the...

    40amp Single Phase wall charger info

    If it helps, my 63A single phase wall connector (2016) clearly indicates single phase.

    State based EV road user charge (Overturned 18/10/23)

    If only it was as simple as private EVs used as cars, which I agree might be better done by the States. However it will not be long before we start to electrify all manner of commercial vehicles (Trucks, Interstate buses, Heavy haulage and light delivery vehicles, fleet utes etc). Then we will...

    Tesla opening up the Supercharger network in Australia to other brand EVs.

    How is the shared NACS pins for AC and DC different from our EU Mennekes connector which also shares its pins between AC (single or 3 phase) and DC? Why is NACS worse?

    UK and Ireland Marketplace - For Sale / Wanted / Free

    Hi arg – thank you for your response, much appreciated. Looks like I am going to find it difficult to rescue my damaged cable as Tesla will not supply and my wall connector appears to be a rarity. Following your reply I will try Hong Kong. As you can see from the photos, you are correct re Hong...

    Wall charger cable length change

    Hi GeoQuack - I replied to the OP who wanted to know if Tesla sold Wall Connector cables of specific lengths. My experience to obtain a spare cable for my 63A single phase unit is that both Tesla Au and Tesla US informed me that wall connector cables are not sold separately from the wall...

    Wall charger cable length change

    fholbert - many thanks. Unfortunately the 63A single phase with a Type 2 Mennekes is a special EU item. The US cables have the Tesla NACS connector, and are not constructed to take the 63A. The damaged cable is a 5 core 6mm2 + 2 core 0.5mm2. They get the 63A single phase capacity by joining...

    Wall charger cable length change

    I have a 63A single phase Tesla supplied Tesla Wall connector (P) TPN:1050069-01-G. I damaged the cable at the cable/handle junction and it could not be repaired. Tesla Australia refuse to supply a replacement cable/handle (they are a single unit with the handle fully filled and bonded to...

    Supercharger - Yass, NSW

    Hi - I note that Plugshare is showing 2 Checkins (an S and an Atto, 19 Dec and 11 Feb) on the Tesla Yass Supercharger site. Are these mistaken checkins for NRMA Yass 50kW charger, or is the Tesla Yass Supercharger now operational? Can anyone confirm the current status?

    State based EV road user charge (Overturned 18/10/23)

    In Post #404 from EcoCloudIT, Equity Generation Lawyers state that the submissions have been published by the High Court on a dedicated webpage. I have made several attempts to find this page on the High Court website without success. Can anyone direct me to these submissions? Many thanks.

    Headlights on model S upgrade

    May I suggest you have a look at Does anyone recognise this headlight plug? Specifically post 33 onwards - great work from Ztrekus and Dborn. I can confirm good results from upgrading to the Tesla OEM ballast plus the Osram Night Breakers, fitted after reading this thread. Also deals with the...
