I'm thinking of using the 14-50 on the car that travels the most distance on a daily basis and probably a 110 outlet on the one that doesn't. Weekends, would use the 14-50 on either. Maybe until the Gen 3 connectors figure out how to load balance that is. I see that the original Nema plug is installed with a 50 amp breaker.
Given your (understandable) reluctance to spend $1,000 plus installation to get two Wall Connectors (or JuiceBoxes or something else with similar functionality), I was thinking the same thing. For people with commutes of under about 50 miles, round trip, a Level 1 (120v, NEMA 5-15) charge should suffice, so you'll probably be OK with just one Level 2 EVSE. If you
do seriously deplete both cars' batteries on one day, you may need to swap the cables around or plan to use a Supercharger at some point during the day, but that should be a rare occurrence.
At the very least, you could start with such a setup and then upgrade later if you decide it's too much of a hassle.
Two other variants that might help a little, at lower cost than installing a second NEMA 14-50 outlet or Wall Connector, are:
- Check your existing outlets and wiring to see if it's capable of handling 20A loads -- that is, NEMA 5-20 outlets rather than NEMA 5-15 outlets. (NEMA 5-20 outlets have one T-shaped prong.) If you buy Tesla's NEMA 5-20 plug/adapter ($35), this option will increase the charging speed by a bit. Even if your outlets are NEMA 5-15, if the wiring in the wall is beefy enough, you might be able to convert to NEMA 5-20 plugs (which might also require a circuit breaker update) to get this benefit, with the caveat that nothing else should be run off the same circuit.
- If a circuit to a 120v outlet in the garage is dedicated to one outlet, and if you're willing to convert it, you could switch it to 240v (NEMA 6-15 or NEMA 6-20). This will more than double the effective charge speed compared to the equivalent 120v outlet. It'll still be slower than you get off your NEMA 14-50 outlet, though.
Both of these are likely to be low-cost conversions,
IF the current wiring is suitable. You should probably consult an electrician to be sure it's all code-compliant, since there are code requirements for 120v outlets in garages, number of outlets per circuit (especially for 240v), etc. I'm not familiar with all of these, and I know nothing about your garage or electrical system, so I can't be certain that either of these options is viable for you; but they're worth investigating.
