    Using TM-Spy to see Model S data.

    The help file for the Android version of TM-Spy just says "(Not supported yet)" under "Data Logging". Are there any plans to add this, as Leafspy has, please? It would be really useful! Thanks.

    Is it safe to connect a large inverter to the 12V battery?

    Thanks. There are a lot of wobbly 1950s utility poles between our house and "civilization". It would be very nice to be able to run the fridge and [gas-fired] central heating off the car for a while next time the power is out for a day. Glad to hear it's possible; it was easy enough with the LEAF.

    Is it safe to connect a large inverter to the 12V battery?

    I sometimes do short trips in freezing temperatures. I am happy with the performance of the cabin heater while range mode is turned on, and with the limited regen available from my cold-soaked battery. If I turn range mode off, an offensive amount of power is wasted on heating up the battery...

    Is it safe to connect a large inverter to the 12V battery?

    It's good for quite a lot more than that; it does about 130A.

    Is it safe to connect a large inverter to the 12V battery?

    Yes please keep us updated about how this goes. I could run all the vital stuff in my house off the dc-dc converter in a Nissan Leaf via a 1kW inverter and would love to know how possible this is on Tesla.

    Thank you for this. Maxwell Automotive sell the cables. I hadn't found them before you posted.

    Using TM-Spy to see Model S data.

    All, Thanks for the thread. Is there any way to obtain a cable at the moment without building it from scratch? I can't find one that's actually in stock anywhere. Thanks
