    14-50 Wall connector over heating

    Wiring a 14-50 Plug requires 6 - 3 Romax wire (Neutral line). Install an HPWC with direct wiring can use 6 - 2 Romex wire (no Neutral line).

    First time drove out of the comfort zone.

    You are absolutely correct. If I did like what you said, I would have explored a bit more closer to Mt Katahdin. I kept watching the battery status and missed the opportunity to enjoy more. Thanks!

    HPWC Installation Quote Flexibility

    $1,500 is about right. This is what I have done and shaved $800. Purchased a Tesla Wall Connector. $500 Run 6/2 Romex wire for more than 100ft. $150 Install 60A breaker to my 200A panel.$50 (Just a reference. not a tutorial)

    Home charging planning

    This is what I have done. Purchased a Tesla Wall Connector. Run 6/2 Romex wire for more than 100ft. If you use NEMA 14-50, you have to use 6/3 wire. Tesla WC does not use neutral. Install 60A breaker to my 200A panel. (Just a reference. not a tutorial)

    SONY RX10 M4. It's a very versatile bridge camera. The low light performance exceeds my expectation. I wish it had wider angle so I could take the Milky Way in larger scale.

    First time drove out of the comfort zone.

    It was reported that northern New England can see some aurora. During the Labor Day weekend, my friend and I decided to have an impromptu 5-hour trip to Millinoket ME to test our luck where there is the least light pollution in the whole eastern US. Tesla planner advised me to charge in Augusta...

    14-50 Wall connector over heating

    HPWC uses dedicated lines and does not use NAME 14-50 plug. Mobile connector can use NEMA 14-50 plug.

    Help, One Electrician Wanted To Charge $1500

    If I install NEMA 14-50, I must follow the color code due to that is for generic use. A dedicated device, like HPWC, does not matter, both wires are hot, no neutral. I declared at the beginning and at the end of the video, that is not a tutorial, but a reference only. Some viewers pointed out...
