Killing you is not going to happen .....
The tab is only for locking the plug to the car. Even if you could remove the plug without unlocking or pressing the unlock button. The flow of electricity is going to be stopped before you could get anywhere near a live circuit. That’s the job of communication pins. Think GFI ... it’s built into every UMC or Wall Connector. And every other charging device.
Yeah I agree. J1772 does this definitely, and I'd be shocked (haha) to find out that Tesla didn't do the same with their proprietary connector. So my original suggestion stands - Tesla should push an OTA update to allow owners to choose to disable the lock.
