Anyone use a leaf clipper creek charger with adapter on their tesla?
Does that just save not getting your own cord out and plugging into 240 plug?
I don't think you'd have to dial down the car. The car and EVSE negotiate and set the current. The problem arises when people (like me) use a home made adapter to plug into a lower current source. Without a proper Tesla adapter, the UMC tells the car 50A is OK.
I use the Clipper Creek 30A unit that I had installed for my Fusion Energi with the provided J1772 adapter.
The correct current is set at 20A [thought it would have been 24A (80% of 30A)] charging at 12 miles per hour.
If I plug the Tesla Mobile Connector into the NEMA 14-50 plug, the current is set at 40A with a charge rate of 25 miles per hour.
