Separate names with a comma.
Well, yes, if you start a charge and immediately look at it. It's probably still warming up the battery and may not begin charging right away in...
It technically isn't, but the vast majority of the time, that doesn't matter at all, and people are just being uptight, pedantic, annoying a-holes...
Yes, that is a feature they added by software. It wasn't there through the first few years of the Model S, but was added I think sometime around...
1. If you bought it from a camping/RV supply kind of place, it definitely will not work. 2. If you bought a special one that says it is made...
But that's not what people do, for a few reasons. Most people get this wrong, set it as a full 60A circuit, and set the wall connector for a 60A...
:mad:o_O No, no, NO! And this is where we see how people keep getting this wrong over and over and over again (even electricians sometimes)....
I actually think Verizon Math was the original name. Because when the person first recorded this and posted it, it was at the domain name of...
That's why. The fastest charge speeds are only at the lowest states of charge.
I'm...stunned. That spelling is normally supposed to be "bated breath", but because of the phrase before it, you managed to make that misspelling...
Actually did: There is an easy thing you could do with this, but it's a little spendy. Clipper Creek makes excellent, rock solid charging units...
Ah, well, there is the theoretical "answer", and then there is the practical "how it plays out in real life" answer. According to Tesla's...
How about 0 minutes? Yes, preconditioning is just wasting a lot of energy. If you want a warm cabin, that can be done in less than 5 minutes.
Well, that actually makes more sense, though, "from a certain point of view" (Kenobi). Consider the old Model S 60. Range was just barely 200...
You say this as if one thing disproves the other. That's not so. Those are two true things, which are two separate topics. Using your charging...
Nope--not that either. And apparently from @cstork 's disagree marker, he or she doesn't understand this either. .58 cents is a fraction of a...
:eek: [facepalm] Um, except that using a 60A breaker on a 50A outlet type IS A BLATANT CODE VIOLATION! Code is abundantly clear in saying that...
Very unusual circumstances that probably aren't applicable here, because you have to stay within the rated temperature limits of everything along...
Aww yeah!! I saw your route goes through the Pocatello and Idaho Falls, Idaho area, and I have one for there. And then if you're close enough to...
Oh, well that answer is easy about 6 or 8. I'm more concerned about what is 10 gauge though. Look at this ampacity table that shows the allowed...
No, it's nothing to do with any of that. This is a known incompatibility of the Gen1 wall connectors with the cars with MCU 2 or later....
I'm absolutely certain the prices are not that low. They are very likely 100 times that much. :rolleyes: VerizonMath
This seems so egregiously out of line to me, that I can't imagine a company doing that. I mean this is for a device that's supposed to pull 40A...
10 gauge?!?! Seriously? I'm kind of angry at them just thinking about this, that they intentionally decided to build a device to use 40A...
I think I have some answers to this, but since I am in the U.S. and you are in the UK, I am not 100% sure they will be applicable. I think they...
Yeah, probably. People just aren't familiar with this, but any heating of the cabin and/or battery is pretty heavy energy use. And see that in...
Yeah, that sounds like a fine plan. It's not odd really for a newly built house/garage. Many states are instituting requirements to pre-wire...
I have heard of that just a couple of times, and it I think was just attributed to a rare software glitch in the car. Yeah, I would say give it a...
You're talking about air resistance at highway speed. Given that the context of the question was about slowing to a stop, I don't really consider...
There--fixed that for ya.
I like trying to figure out challenging routes and help people solve problems, but... ...this is some really wild over-the-top exaggeration. If...
That's not the question, though. This wasn't asking if either one was significant or negligible or harmful or detrimental, etc. etc. You would...
And it's worse than that. I-5 covers along the Western edge, and I-84 along the Northern edge, but at least they do have coverage. It's 2021,...
First off, this was mainly an issue with the earlier packs in the Model S and X the first few years. I don't think there have been many reports...
Huh--this is a fascinating one. My first reaction was thinking EVSEAdapters probably has an adapter for this, but it turns out they don't. This...
That seems to be going around in Oregon. The Baker City Supercharger was down for a week or two from its breakers being stolen too. In that one,...
Oh, right. I'm still just thinking of charge scheduling. I keep forgetting people would use that pre-warming.
You may hear people refer to "splash and dash". That's what they are referring to.
You really don't have to be that uptight about keeping within 20%-80%. You seem to be treating this like throughout the life of the car it must...
You asked for a guide, and here is a great one: Tesla Model 3/Y Home Charging Guide – TeslaTap No, that doesn't exist. That's why electric code...
Everything does. I guess I'm not following you at all. Looked at one way, nothing in the world could help you in that case. If you suddenly...
If I get where you're going with that, I don't think that's how the theory works. This is calculus about integrals and the "area under the...
Nothing to do with that software update though. All of Tesla's vehicles since at least the Model S was released in 2012 have always had this...
It should be very little difference either way, but since you are asking, the lighter, more gradual regen process probably is slightly more...
o_O Well...of course. If you're trying to heat the car and charge it at the same time, that's going to be something like 12kW of power required....
But that's why I think this scheduled departure stuff is frustrating and mostly useless. That thing you want to do, where you realize you have a...
I put a disagree on it, but then decided to undo that. But this is badly, horribly misleading. Both versions of charge cable absolutely...
Those are vastly different situations that you cannot compare. The 1-15 is an official UL approved NEMA plug type. The 5-15 and 5-20 outlets are...
But which one? 6-20? 6-30? 10-30? 14-30? People use all of these.
No. Everyone's house is different. And that's the point about electric cars is that they can recharge with electricity: fast or slow. Some...
Oh, OK. I made a mistake too then, in making a subconscious assumption as I was reading. When you said wall charger, I thought a Tesla one. I...
