Like I did years ago with the original UMC (that was potted), here is the GEN2 unit opened up. This one failed at the relay connection.

Tesla has redesigned the UMC "mobile connector" with some of the same features that are in the second generation HPWC wall connector. This includes thermal sensors in the plug. We received our first redesigned UMC a few days ago. It has no obvious external markings to identify it as the...

One of our customer's Roadster had a fatal battery error (car would not turn on). I forgot the numerical value of the error code, but the nomenclature was "Sheet 9", which I assume to be the 9th sheet of 9 sheets of cells in the battery pack. Of course, the car was locked in Park, so we got a...

Who would like to meet me Friday morning in Riverside, California to listen to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) meeting about the Volkswagen diesel scandal? It would be awesome to have as many electric vehicles there as can fit in the parking lot. Friday, March 24, 2017 Meeting starts...

For Sale to a good home - two used Nissan / Sumitomo 44kW CHAdeMO chargers - one works great, the other might work great, or it might be better as a parts machine. I have all parts and service manuals. These units were originally at the Marriott Courtyard Spectrum hotel, Irvine, California for...

I recently cleaned some of the power pins on a Tesla charge inlet, and I was astonished at how filthy they were. There is at least some chance that dirty pins could negatively affect the ability to charge or affect the charge rate in an adverse way. The power pins have both internal and external...

Ok, a thought just popped in my mind. As we know, the Supercharger is 12 of the 10kW chargers that are onboard your car. Tesla gets 120kW because they have 4 of the 10kW chargers on each of three 277 volts circuits (480 volt three phase). If those chargers individually pulled 40 amps at 250...

I'm taking a poll of how much you would want/"need" a CHAdeMO and/or Roadster adaptor for trips. Perhaps, also a rental J1772 extension cord, too. The concept is they would be shipped to you, your credit card charged for the value of the rental plus replacement cost, and if it is returned on...
