I bought my wife a Volt.
I have a Permanent UMC plugged into a 14-30 outlet at one house.
I have a Wall Connector on 40A breaker at another house.
Is there an adapter that can go from the Tesla cord to the Volt?
I might just use 120V for the Volt but didn’t know if there were ways to use the Tesla connectors for the Volt. I don’t fully understand the Volt requirements yet beyond the 120V. Volt did change in 2019 and has different charger in the car (supposedly the same one that’s in the Bolt).
I know I could convert what I have with a 3rd party charger and use an adapter on the Tesla. But that is a bit pricey.
I might T-Off an outlet off the Wall Connector setup.
I don’t want to have to unplug UMC and plug in Volt at the other location. I’d like it as convenient as possible to plug in nightly.
The location with the Wall Connector sometimes is a short stay (1 day) so faster charging would be nice. And the battery will always be depleted on the Volt (120 miles to get too).
Wiring new circuits now is also very difficult. Blown foam and closed up just this past winter at the UMC location. The location with UMC is a short (10 miles) daily commute. With a full night to charge back up. It’s also not a big deal any time it’s short because there is a backup SC under the hood. I’m pretty maxed out on circuit/amps at this location as well. And I already have an A/B switch between UMC outlet and Garage heater outlet.
I’m little concerned on long term battery health using 120V exclusively and slight loss in efficiency.
