Good afternoon all,
Like a majority of other reservation holders, I too have a model 3 soon to be in my possession. While I don't have a delivery date, I have a VIN and I am in communication with a delivery specialist.
My issue is I do not have a charging solution in place. This is because I have been planning and scheduling work using the provider estimate (August to October). I will have a 14-30 in the garage, scheduled for late July. Until that time, I only have 5-15s (standard outlets) in the garage.
Provided that I am only utilizing a 30amp connection, how negative is a 30-40 ft extension cord from present drier hookup to provide charging capabilities to the Tesla as a temporary solution?
There are quite a bit of options in this range, for RVs and such, and in theory this seems practical. I will not be able to drive the Tesla much until I have 30 amps, since it will take forever to charge... So this is one alternative.
