Yes we are all (I hope) screaming for this. I have not even picked up my new toy yet but already know that I need this jumper cable and probably others too since there seems to be no real standard in Europe yet........

are there really only 15 people in Europe that are interested in this? or are we only 15 Europeans that come to these forums? that I suppose is possible......... and this is obviously why tesla rarely listens to us.........! understandable, we represent not even 3% of the EU roadster population........ :-(

Well, there are, what, five British owners who post here? Maybe ten Germans? So I'd guess we see 10% of owners here. Thus I guess you can multiply the above demand by ten.


By the way, I spotted one in the wild yesterday. A Mennekes charging post that is, not an owner.

I am really interested, in the Netherlands the public charging points are being converted to Mennekes points this year.

A pigtail might be a good option for those who already have a UMC, but they should really just make a through cable. If they don't offer it, you might be better off just converting an HPC.

I'd love to have such a cable. I got my roadster last friday and I am really baffled that I could not use any public charging station. If I had such a cable the first thing is to return my UMC cable. This takes far too much space anyway.
