    Tesla doesn't have an insurance problem, it has a repair one

    "I liked and believed the $10k shop a bit more as they had 45 Teslas onsite getting body repairs when I visited and seemed to know what they were talking about. When I told him my surprise, he said the problem was that the seemingly little quarter panel actually required the whole rear quarter...

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    Yeah, the stock cable is 6 AWG. So, last night I figured I'd go check to see what voltage the car was reading while charging. Sure enough it was about 2 volts drop from my service to the end point (the car).

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    Good point! The stock cable does take up to 80A. I imagine the insulation and rating of that... we'll call it SO cable allows that 6 AWG to be rated much higher than lets say 6 AWG THWN in conduit... but yeah... its like a 6 AWG 3 conductor and has.. I want to say 5 #18 AWG conductors as well...

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    I had some ideas in my mind before hand, I thought of using a tool balancer. I wanted to be able to ratchet it into a fixed position without constant tension though... When I started I though it was a great idea and why know one had thought of it before... then I stopped to think.. "someone...

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    Haha! I guess time will tell if that 2.12 volt drop is going to cause issues! ***When I calculated the voltage drop, I only figured the additional 25 feet I added. I did not figure the stock length of the cable at 25 feet already... so at 50 feet on a 6 AWG conductor at 247 volts... it should...

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    It would probably stop charging if there were a significant drop in voltage during an actual charge. However, the wall charger itself will operate on as low as 208 volts (a 3-phase wye connected system), not that we see that in residential.. but, In such a case, if it's maximum output is 48...

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    This isn't related to the charger installation, but its one of the only other videos I uploaded. I added a motor to my hand crank wire stripper! Also added one other feature.

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    Haha! Being that I am a licensed master electrician, I have no worries about the electrical installation. Heh.. I don't know if you noticed in the video all the loose wire stung through the attic (it's low voltage for the strip lighting in the garage), it looks horrendous, but functional...

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    Yup, pretty much. It was a little unnerving cutting the cable from the charger, but I left the factory terminal rings and enough to reach that first junction box above the charger. Then had to run (3) #6 AWG and (4) #14 AWG (probably could have downsized the ground and the #14's) in the conduit...

    This might help give a better visual on the mechanics. Yellow box = This is a fixed point. the end of the charger cable is made up here. Green pipe = I used 1" EMT conduit as a track for the "pulleys" to roll on. Blue Pulleys = I used old dolly hubs for pulleys. I just ripped the tires off...

    DIY Retracting Charging Cable. Took me 3 days to figure it all out.

    I wanted my charging cable to retract as well as lock in position. I have seen other videos and ideas around, but I couldn't find anything that would work well for my application. This is what I came up with and it works great. There aren't many details in the videos, just a couple views of the...

    I noticed my navigation glitching. When I am driving it glitches to the north, no matter which direction I am traveling (other than when I'm already headed north). Anyone having this issue or know what might be causing it?

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    Well, I was mistaken. My wife was actually traveling up highway 75 to Tulsa and not the other direction. Still though, I should be passing by the next coming weekend.

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    I would imagine it will be done by then. My wife will be passing by tomorrow on the way up to Oklahoma, I'll see if she can swing by and take some pictures. Then I'll be stopping by the weekend of the 9th (Aug.) and I'll check on progress at that time as well.

    Homelink Installed at/before Delivery?

    Same here. I ordered my Model 3 on 7/25 and scheduled for delivery on 8/8. I purchased the home link, but unclear about when or where it will be installed.
