That’s one of the sillier things I’ve heard on this forum. I don’t do it always, but a few times I’ve left a card in my window when I knew I was going to be blocking a destination charger for longer than I actually needed it (like overnight at a hotel for example). I had someone take me up on it once - they texted, I remotely unlocked charge port, they were eternally grateful. Everybody wins.
Being even the slightest bit kind and accommodating goes a long way.
Just yesterday we were in key west at the margaritaville parking garage. There is a model x in there plugged in to one of two j1772s. The other unit wasn’t working. I admit I stole his plug... and then had to power cycle the evse to get it to work. I plugged him back in when we left. I’d seen him there the day before when we were walking around scoping out stuff so I figured he wouldnt mind
This is exactly the situation I started this thread for... the only reason we were able to charge yesterday was because he used the 1772 adapter. Sure would be nice if there was a way to leave the charge port unlocked or have a Tesla to Tesla adapter
I’m not sure I would like someone “borrowing” my charge time when my car was being charged. Understandable if perhaps the guy was a major squatter, but otherwise seems a bit dubious.

Once you plug the charge cord in to a tesla, it locks and can't be unplugged unless the key is nearby or you unlock from the touchscreen. But is there a way to /not/ lock the charge port? Let's say I'm destination charging and don't mind if someone comes along and unplugs me in the next parking spot over. Is there a way to allow this? My first thought was a plastic adapater similar to the J1772 adapter but then it dawned on me this is just a software feature.
I have twice been charging my Telsa and had someone unplug it and plug the charger into their car. I caught the first guy, but eas wondering how he was able to do it without the car being unlocked. Keep in mind, it wasn’t a Tesla charging station.
