    48/72amp Charger - Longevity, Best Practice, Durability, Failure Rate, etc.

    Saw various reports of the 1st gen charger - or chargers, if equipped - failing. As the 1st generation chargers (40 or 40x2) were replaced with the 2nd generation chargers (48 or 72) earlier this year (I think?), I am seeking information as to how the 2nd generation chargers have held up...

    NEMA 14-50 in the garage for $450 - is that fair?

    Hi folks. Quick question. I ordered my Model S on 8/27 and I heard from my delivery specialist that the car should be ready for pick up around 9/21 or so. Got a quote for a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage for $450. Is that fair? Anything I should look out for/ test? Thanks.

    How can ReGen bypass the charger?

    AFAIK when regening you create AC power from the AC motor something converts it into DC and puts it back into the battery. However batteries need a charger in between to get the current and voltage they want. It also takes a while for the battery to communicate with the EVSE when charging. With...

    Why only 72A, 16kW AC charging?

    I know that Tesla thinks for city charging 72A is way more than enough and for roadtrips it offers Superchargers but, in Europe 3-phase plugs are quite common to find. They support 22kW (32A each phase, 96A) easily and you can find more than that too. Even Renault ZOE has 64kW AC charger (96A...

    HPWC/UMC Charger Plug Case?

    Anyone seen any protection for the charger plug on the HPWC/UMC? I've rubbed mine on the concrete once or twice when coiling/uncoiling in the garage and hate to see it get even the smallest of scratches! Anyone come across any kind of plastic, silicone or rubber sleeve case for it?

    TEXAS Tesla!
