Let's do that again today - we'd love for you to join us!

InsideEVs summarized our sifting of Forum boards to see what MS owners thought of the various upgrades available Which Tesla Options Are Worth The Price We have a poll running asking MS owners which options they chose: Model S Options Poll | Plugless Power if you are so inclined. Finally...

No problem!

I used this data to update my explainer on the race to 200k U.S. deliveries, whereby the "winner" is the first to lose the Federal EV Tax Credit. It's really Tesla v. GM - but with today's news, it doesn't look like anyone will be able to beat Musk's Merry Band of Disruptors: Plugless | Tesla or...

You rang? You are correct @Electric700. (Disclosures: I work for Plugless and we did not work with Tesla on this integration). We go to truly great lengths to design Plugless to be a fully reversible premium accessory that changes nothing about the EV (no drilling, cutting, breaking etc) - the...

Shot you an email - love your video.

We're doing a Plugless Live! on our Facebook page today at 1:30pt - 4:30et if anyone wants to see the components of our system - a show-n-tell with Plugless Advisors Ashley and Amanda - the "A-Team" - https://www.facebook.com/PluglessPower

No problem - any time.

Great question. It's always about cats though - for the record our engineers like all animals including humans - safety is obviously extremely important to us. The scenario is simply not an issue - 1st inductive resonant charging just doesn't work that way (i.e. it's not a microwave for example)...

The difference in efficiency from corded charging is roughly 7% for level 1 charging and roughly 12% for corded level 2 charging. This translates to typically less than a dollar extra less per evening charge (obviously many factors go into this - daily driving mileage, electricity costs.

208V (because his installed at his shop with commercial power) - it's 240V 30-amp at home - which translates to 20 to 25 miles of charge per hour, which is PLENTY of charge for typical daily driving mileage and overnight and/or at work charging.

~35 lbs (a bag or two of groceries OR .76% the weight of a 85 RWD Tesla Model S)

Disclosures (I am with Plugless and we did not work with Tesla on our system) - on efficiency. We think all inductive chargers should be judged by the following three criteria - 1. What is the TOTAL wireless system efficiency as compared to the corded equivalent (not the efficiency just across...

Your math looks sound. So, for example, if you are the typical male driver 35-54 years old and crank about 18,900 miles per year - that 100K will take you 5.3 years to complete, so a premium of about $189 per year.

You should absolutely. We think all inductive chargers should be judged by the following three criteria - 1. What is the TOTAL wireless system efficiency as compared to the corded equivalent (not the efficiency just across the gap, as an example) 2. As provided by 3rd-party testing and 3. on a...
