14-50 adapter / Plug

[Boeing747]

I had an electrician come and fix a Nema 14-50 socket in my garage last weeknd. Picked MY yesterday and when i tried to charge, noticed that the standard mobile charger/adapter is a 5-15 plug..Bummer didnt knew it, esle would have asked the delivery person itself..
Luckily i saw the Gen 2 Nema 14-50 adapter available in stock in the Tesla site and ordered one..

Eeyup. Learned that reading the Model 3 threads.

My sc had them in stock so bought one when I picked up the car

my bad, i should have checked it before taking delivery and would have asked the sc for it

So does this mean that I have to account for an additional $520 on top of the price of the car if I want to charge with NEMA 14-50?

If the turn around from placing order to delivery day wasnt a week, I would have ordered online like most people. But cause I got the car sprung on me so fast I figured sc's carried at least some accesories. I figure stock will vary wildy depending on sc.

Adapter is $35

Gen 2 NEMA Adapters

The adapter is $35. All you do is remove the 5-15 plug that came with the mobile charger (it detaches easily)...and switch for the 14-50 adapter. Takes less than 1 minute.

so these things don't come with adapters????
I would have thought a $60k car would at least come with the obvious adapters, which in the US I would expect probably a 5-15, 14-50, and probably a 14-30 dryer plug.
I can see something like TT-30 being special and not provided, but the ones in almost every house......sillyness!

Tesla downgraded the plug that comes with the UMC for Ys and 3s from the 14-50 to the NEMA 5-15.

It’s probably good my for TSLA.

They do come with adapters. The mobile charger comes with a standard 110v adapter and a J-1772 adapter. J-1772 is the most common adapter in the US right now. The 14-50 is generally a home charging choice, as well as the chargepoint adapter.

I fully understand and expect to be charged for an adapter to make my home charging better. Tesla did their job and covered the mobile just fine in my opinion. They gave us pretty much every common mobile charging solution out there. Supercharging, 110v and J-1722.

I ordered the 14-50 adapter for $35 on the tesla site..

Can anyone confirm that the Y still comes with the J-1722 adapter? Otherwise I will order one up.

Why ship with every possible adapter?

They ship with basic 101 charger. A few bucks and a week can get you an adapter. Surely someone that can afford a 60k car can afford $35?

Yes they do

 

[SEndicott]

Correct. I had the mobile charger and the 110 and J1722 adapters in my charging bag.
