    Gen 3 wall connector power sharing

    The WCs communicate with each other based on actual current draw. If two cars are plugged in and one is not charging the other will get the max available. So 2 WCs with 60A breakers (48A max continuous) on a 100A subpanel (80A total max continuous), one car plugged or 2 plugged with one...

    Supercharging numbering

    Ah yes, I misunderstood the OP. Agree with the above. Santa Clarita has placards/flags on top of each supercharger designating 250kW or 150kW which is nice to distinguish V2 vs V3

    A and B are still paired for the same number, regardless of where they’re physically located

    Used CPO warranty MISSING.. Tesla won't honor

    It’s called out in your order confirmation email titled “Congratulations and Welcome to Tesla! RNxxxxxxxxx” (same language in both of my used purchases from 12/19 and 2/20). I didn’t see it called out anywhere in the sales paperwork.

    Home charge tripping breaker: Anyone?

    Ah you’re totally right. I’ve never understood how that could be enforced in a residential setting. 2020 NEC made it a lot more cut and dry.

    Home charge tripping breaker: Anyone?

    Prior to 2020 NEC, GFCI was required for 120V 15A or 20A receptacles in certain locations (such as garage). 2020 NEC expanded it to circuits up to 250V and removed the amperage requirement. So a NEMA 14-50 50A 240V receptacle in the garage now requires GFCI whereas previously it wasn’t...

    Home charge tripping breaker: Anyone?

    I'd agree, the only thing that gives me a little pause is the language from ChargePoint which makes me think there may be some odd behavior they've seen. Nonetheless, hardwiring removes the requirement for the GFCI breaker which is newly required on 240 receptacles of all amperages as of the...

    Home charge tripping breaker: Anyone?

    Is the breaker in your panel a GFCI breaker or not? Since you’ve lowered the max draw on the car to 32A and it’s still popping the breaker, you’ve got something else going on - doesn’t seem like standard overcurrent popping the breaker. Could be wiring issue or internal to the ChargePoint. do...

    Dual Charger setup and Charging outdoor

    Along these lines… wouldn’t immediate, frequent swapping between 200-400kW output (acceleration) and 50-85kW input (regen braking) and back again have way more of an impact on the battery than 7-11kW continuous charge? I’ve been wondering this for quite awhile but haven’t seen an discussion...

    Building new home with 4 garage spaces.

    Fwiw, #6 in conduit is good for 60A (but #6 Romex is only good for 50A) If I were in OP’s spot, I’d put a 100A subpanel in the garage if the main panel isn’t there already and run #6 3 wire (hot/hot/neutral) plus #10 ground in 3/4” flexible metal conduit to deep double gang junction boxes at...

    No supercharging in Bakersfield CA?

    Exactly this. FWIW, the Bakersfield Service Center has consistently had some of the highest sales in the country (#1 a couple months.. 70-90 cars for one salesperson who isn’t even here full time) as well as highest service center utilization rates. The SC is phenomenal in terms of service as...

    Model LS V8

    Why don't you figure out how to tow a model S at 75 mph with an F150 for some meaningful distance and let us know how that goes. If you can pull that off repeatably (10s - 100s of cycles) without it catching on fire, maybe it's worth considering thinking about the various other details that are...

    Model LS V8

    Stop talking about it and do it already. Those of us who think it’s both a stupid idea in the first place and doubt your ability to pull it off at all (and even if you do, expect massive trade offs/undesirable performance) would be happy to be proved wrong.

    P100d (2016/2017) Range experience

    One more data point, 2016 p100d bought used from tesla a year ago with 32k miles. 37k miles now. 292mi on 100% charge, no change in the last year. I also stopped putting it in mileage in favor of percentage soon after getting it since I felt much less range anxiety with it set on percentage...

    Does anyone know what this part is?

    Datamatrix code says P1097455-01-B:Rev01:S0617IF0073304 I searched the EPC for 1097455-01-B and it didn't come up with anything. Definitely looks like a tesla part number, perhaps your SC can look it up

    Any experience with the new Tesla home ev charger?

    I installed two gen 3 Tesla WCs in my garage at the beginning of the year and have not had a single issue. It does sound like there were a few bad batches of them that overheat. Tesla is aware of the issue as you’ll see in the other threads. Unless I had another EV, I’d never consider a...

    Upgrading AP cameras

    I didn’t get a price but asked my SC manager about the aiming- they set up a barcode-type target and adjust the aim manually to get it close by adjusting the mounting plate, then do the calibration. Usual charge is an hour of labor after a windshield replacement

    MCU2 Upgrade Audio EQ Balancing - Coming From MCU1

    MCU2 Upgrade Audio EQ Balancing - Coming From MCU1

    Great work and very informative post. I’m fairly confident after reading this and other threads about the change in audio performance with the MCU upgrade that we’re all hearing the same change and that some of us love it and some of us hate it. Substantially expanded bass that requires turning...
