Guys/Gals, Thanks for reminding me that the firmware in my CHAdeMO adapter may need updating.
I don't recall reading that it may need updating when I read the manual available at the Tesla.com/chdemo page.
Thanks for reminder. Doh how could I not realize that this could be a problem?......when I have been working for years with software enabled electronics.
I tried out my '1 month old' CHAdeMo adapter at new Electrify America installation that had
3 CCS2 capable of 350KW and
1 CHAdeMO capable of 50KW
a. Tap and go card reader did not work had to use chip reader, could not find adapter, screen suggested unplug and start over.
b. Unplug CHAdeMO from car, unplug CHAdeMO from adapter and redo.
This time it said found my chip card, found the adapter and would start charging momentarily, oops cannot charge, unplug and try again
c. Same message on the 3rd attempt
As there was only 1 CHAdeMO equipped stal, I headed North and took my usual 1 hr detour to a high usage Supercharger where I could have to wait for a charge.
A day ago I decided to test the CHAdeMO adapter at a Electrify America installation that is nearby just off the ring interstate extension
and it worked after 2 attempts.
!
Have to go again and check to see why the NFC touch and go has a problem as I am not keen on leaving my card in the chip reader.
May have to get a CCS2 adapter as the 2021 manual for the MS sez that the J1772, CCS2 and CHAdeMO adapters are available....when? for the CCS2 is not stated. The CCS2 ports on the Electrify America stall sez it is capable of 350KW.
Hmm..... Taycan Gran Turismo? Supercharger moat drying up?
