Quick question around the right choice here. To get a electrician to get the correct power from my box to the HPWC and install it, I gather it's around $400 give or take. Add another $550 for the HPWC unit and we are at about $950. Doing this charges at about 35 miles per hour.
The second option is to just have him install a NEMA 14-50 outlet and use my included mobile charger. This would cost just the $400 and no additional cost for the HPWC unity. This setup would charge at 38 miles per hour.
For a typical overnight charger either one will complete the charge by the time I wake up.
So aside from the benefit of having another Tesla branded item in my garage and perhaps the convenience of being able to keep my mobile charge in my trunk, is there any other reason to not just go with the second option?
