    PSA. Another melted NEMA 14-50 receptacle

    I bought the Hubbel 14-50 for first install. Receptacle tabs are brass coated steel. As I recall was about $60 at local Electrical supply outlet. Have had no issues with it. Installed a Leviton 14-50 at our vacation home from Home Depot for $7. Bare steel resepticle tabs. No issues. It is...

    No more "Auto" setting for each section of climate control in version 9?

    Have no idea about that but wish we could set defaults. I live in NH. Default HVAC is dash and floor vents with AC on. Why do I need AC on when its 10 degrees F? This morning the defrost was also on. Need to be able to set defaults. Have a few mechanical issues that need to be addressed. Will...

    Model S - V9 software downgrade, not what I purchased.

    I mostly agree. Icons on bottom of screen increase distraction time. Another peeve is the HVAC. Default is dash and lower vents with AC on! I'm in New England. Its 40 deg. Why is the AC on? Haven't found how to change defaults yet...probably won't be able too. As owners we should have more say...

    PSA. Another melted NEMA 14-50 receptacle

    Did my own set up inside the garage and used 6 gauge wire with Hubble NEMA 14-50. In addition bought the NEMA 14-50 plug adapter for my Gen 1 mobile charger. Leave the adapter plugged in all the time. Plug and unplug the mobile charger. Used a Cooper at our second home with 6 gauge wire. Don't...

    SpaceX isn't winning the 2018 launch race

    Great for the Chinese but not a fair comparison as the article indicates. They have the advantage of money, government support and number of workers. Space X is a small company in comparison and has shaken up the aerospace industry as Tesla has done. How many of there boosters can they re-use...

    Pano roof leaking

    Have a 2014 MS P85 CPO. Was charging car at work. Was headed downhill. Very heavy rain made the Headliner and A pillar trim were wet. No water on seats or anywhere else.

    Combining two 110v/12A circuits?

    Assuming you have circuit breakers your circuits are likely 15 amp. Check your breaker box. Did you find out 12 amp as the charge rate when charging? Your wiring is likely 14 gauge so you will not be able to up it to 20 amp (need 12 gauge). I installed my own 50 amp circuit in my garage. Used...

    Any advantage to upgrade to performance summer tires for 75D?

    I live in NH and have a CPO 2014 P85. Rear wheel drive. Bought the 19 inch (483 mm) winter tire package from Tesla. Very nice tires and wheels. Drove the car all winter and had no problems. The winter tires are too noisy for non-winter driving as well as lower electron mileage. Swapped over to...

    Supercharger - Hooksett NH Rest Areas

    I live in NH and quite used to the dichotomy of sane norms and live free or die ethic. Have used he Hooksett SCs both north and south. Go to northern VT frequently and use Hooksett, Lebanon and Berlin VT as needed. On fridays 93 NB has major backups in summer. Use route 3A instead and always...
