Last tank of gas: March 2009
I ordered an adapter with my Model S so that I can charge it from old Roadster HPCs. There are several in the wild here to the North, East and South of me that Seattle-area owners use for road trips. Without this (given that there is no CHAdeMO adapter, or local Supercharger buildout) I would have been limited to 30A charging at J1772 stations, or 40A charging at campgrounds. I wasn't looking forward to taking the Model S on a trip and charging SLOWER than in the Roadster.
The car arrived on Sept 28, but the adapter just arrived today. Yay! Now I can charge at 70A just like with the Roadster. Good timing, as my wife and I are heading East tomorrow. (I actually don't think we'll need to use it because we're staying at a hotel with a 30A charger that we can reach without recharging, but boy is it nice to have as a backup).
