    Post your Garage charging setup! (pictures, Wall Connector, multi-EV)

    4 6ga, and 2 10ga grounds (neutral not needed) only fill the 1" EMT to 24% if I am remembering correctly. The real question is around the rule for more than 3 current carrying conductors in a conduit, but anyway...

    Post your Garage charging setup! (pictures, Wall Connector, multi-EV)

    If this is a Gen 2 station, then the approved way to connect two stations is share a single circuit, so the loop of wire would allow him space to put connectors in and split off for the additional stations. (up to 4 total)

    New Wall Connector initially charges at 48A then reduces to 32A

    It is a safer and more durable connection than relying on an outlet. Also the Wall connector, and all of the associated install costs and upgrades have a tax credit, where if you just had an outlet, that might have been questionable. So the install gets you a 30% tax credit on all work done to...

    Post your Garage charging setup! (pictures, Wall Connector, multi-EV)

    I wouldn't put the cable in the pipe, the pipe would insulate the cable, and it would overheat if you pull full power through it, and likely shorten it's life. These sorts of cables aren't designed to be run inside of pipes, and definitely not black pipes in full sun.

    Post your Garage charging setup! (pictures, Wall Connector, multi-EV)

    My garage has 4 fixed stations, each on 100 amp circuits. They are all OpenEVSE based, but with large contactors. Since they only are backed by a pair of 150 amp circuits from the main panels, I can't run 80 amps by 4 cars, but have to allocate power based on what is parked where. This is all...

    I can't reset the TPMS error message on my Model S

    I have an automatic air pump that seems to do a really good job if setting a precise pressure. Used it to inflate the tires to the correct pressure and went for a drive. It immediately found the sensors. My theory as to why they aren't syncing up for most people. It's just a theory, and...

    2020 Perf Alignment at Tesla, not in spec

    They offered to change the upper control arms if I paid for the parts. I thought it was an odd offer, but didn't take them up on it, yet. Another 15k miles and I will probably do it if the offer still stands. On my old model 3 I swapped the upper control arms at about 65k miles, it was sloppy...

    2020 Perf Alignment at Tesla, not in spec

    I failed to mention this was aligned by a Tesla service center (they charged $275), so I assume they followed the manual, however the service advisor told me that the car doesn't have adjustments for camber, so maybe not?

    2020 Perf Alignment at Tesla, not in spec

    I bought this car used in May and sold my 2018 M3 LR RWD I was swapping out the summer tires and I noted heavy wear on the inner edges of the front tires, and yes more than typical for a Model 3. The above is the report I got back. On top of that I also got a note on my receipt that the toe...

    Shipping advice for wheels. With or without tires? Which carrier?

    If you have pep boys they are usually one of the cheaper options for this sort of thing. For shipping I suggest checking out shippo. You can create an account for no cost and utilize their UPS account. This gives you access to their volume and associated low rates. It should be less than 200...

    Older Model S 19" Winter tires, Double spoke, Chicago

    MODS: Could you please make a sub-forum for 'reservation sales'???

    As wishy washy as Tesla is on policies I won't be surprised if selling reservations comes back again some day. They are blocking it right now because of how much their prices have changed, but under times of low rate of change they might be back to turning a blind eye. Like so many others I...

    2013 Tesla Model S for Sale $32,499 OBO

    Steve, did you live outside the Chicago land for many years? Were you someplace without winter, because that would be a bonus to me and probably many people. Chicago winter is hard on things and getting cars locally that haven't spent many winters here is a bit of a treat.

    Model S Snow Tires with TPMS

    Many of the older cars got upgraded over the years. The quick and easy way is if you can see what the pressure is in each tire, then you have the TPMS system of the 50900+ VIN cars in the older car. My old 2013 was upgraded, as were many others.
