ChargePoint Model X model selection

[oshogg]

Hi,

Does anyone use ChargePoint app with 2023 Model X? If so, what EV vehicle model you have selected in the ChargePoint app?

For every ChargePoint Tesla Model X I tried, the year is an older year (2021 or before). I don't see 2023 or even 2022 model in there. I get free charging at work with ChargePoint app and am wondering what Model X should I choose in the app.

Thanks,
Osho

It doesn't really matter. The Model X has had the same 48 amp charger since 2019.

The public Chargepoint at my Drs is 32A, does your work Chargepoint go higher?

You will get whatever the charger offers if less than 48 amps. Chargepoint terminals vary all over the place. There are a bunch of free Chargepoints in my area at Kohl's stores, I think they are only 32 amps as well. But Chargepoint also has some DC fast chargers, but none close to me.

I don't know. This is my first EV. I guess I will find out. I just picked a standard range Model X with 2021 year model. That should work.

As for your question about the Chargepoint app, I have a 2021 but on the app it’s a 2020. I don’t remember the specifics of when I signed up, but I’m guessing 2021 wasn’t an option at the time. It works fine.

It doesn’t matter at all what car you tell ChargePoint. I still have my 2010 Leaf in their records.

Make sure you bring your J1772 adapter.

The chargepoint card is good for the chargers that are not online and free of charge.

They should be, although it has been a very long time since I've used one, because they are very slow. They are Level 2, but about half what I get from my wall connector at home. Plus if they are installed at a commercial site, they are often only fed 208V (instead of 240) reducing the charge rate even more. 32 amps @ 208V = around 6 - 7 kw. At home I am running 48a @ ~250V which is more like 10 -12 kw.

Thanks all for the input!

The older j chargers were mostly free due to the clean air act (child asthma inspired). The newer ones are online and charge small fees to stop idle EV's from blocking them.
