Charge Question

[MIM1]

Hello Everyone,

How safe is it to charge the car in the rain ? It just started to rain and I need to charge the car .

I'm afraid to get the port wet and the charger too

I'm sure this been asked before


thank you

I think you'll be fine. While I charge in my garage most of the time, I've had to visit Superchargers once or twice in the rain...once in a real monsoon, abs never had any type of issue.

Its fine, but dont put your mobile connector in a puddle or anything.

As jjrandorin pointed out, the mobile connector itself is not weather proof, so it needs to be protected from the rain... but the connector that plugs into the cars charge port is not a problem and when plugged in it forms a tight seal not susceptible to rainwater ingress.
