New MY owner here, and first BEV as well. In the swirl of the last few weeks end of quarter rush getting the MY (6/7 order, 6/30 pickup, went very well), I’m just now taking on the question of the daily charging setup. I will need to get an electrician to install some kind of 240 VAC charging system, hence the question:

What’s the advantage to spending $500 on the Gen-3 Wall Connector, over just getting a NEMA 14-50 installed and using the mobile connector (with appropriate adapter) that came with the car?

I’ve looked at the threads here and read the information on Tesla’s site, but am having a hard time figuring out the advantages of the Wall Connector that make it worth $500. Any information/thoughts appreciated!
