It a charging rate of 1,028mi/hr correct?

Received my new 2022 Tesla S Plaid yesterday, drove it around town then made a 300 mile trip, stopped at a supercharger to charge it for the first time, and was presented with the follow:
Charging: 250kW
Charge Rate: 1,028mi/hr
On my Model Y I could get 500 something mi/hr.

One of the other issues, is that I have been charging my model Y for months from my 14-50 outlet with no issues, had the new model S on it, and 4 hours into it, it trips the circuit breaker.

Perhaps the MY was plugged into a V2 supercharger. Your new car was obviously plugged into a V3 supercharger. The 2 rates you mention are typical for V3 and V2 respectively.
Are you using a mobile connector on the 14-50 outlet?

 

[taz34]

Yes, mobile connector bought an extra one just for home, and one that came with the Model for the road just in case.

Try using the same mobile charger on the new S that you used on the Y without problems.

So I usually use the same Superchargers between Gig Harbor, WA and Bend OR. (Sandy Superchargers and Bend), but last night was first time I used the Troutdale OR. ones. Just checked, the ones I normally use are 150kW and the one in Troutdale last night was 250kW. Ok, that explains that.

Be sure your mobile charger is set to 32 amps. your outlet or wires may not take 40 amps for 4 hours

This is nonsensical advice. The mobile connector included with any 2022 Tesla will never draw more than 32 amps, regardless of what the car is set to.

Gen 1 mobile chargers will charge at 40 amps on a 50 amp breaker. A cheap outlet will overheat, especially in 100 degree weather. That's why TESLA had to downgrade the mobile charger to protect you from yourself.

If it's tripping the circuit breaker, I would thoroughly check the wiring on the receptacle as well as in the circuit breaker panel.

Please post a picture of your charging setup (mobile connector plugged into the receptacle), the circuit breaker, and a pic of the charging screen on the car while charging (showing kW, amps and volts).

Given we’re talking about a 2022 Model S and a Model Y here, this remains irrelevant and confusing to the OP.

Lol, no. I mean, yes, some of them inevitably fail for all sorts of reasons, but I can’t imagine 100f ambient temperature being any particular issue. I’ve ran many tens of megawatt hours through a “cheap” outdoor RV plug at 40 amps on my Gen 1 UMC with no issues. We are regularly WELL north of 100f in the summer. Any properly installed 14-50 is literally designed to accept a continuous load of 40 amps.

That's why TESLA had to downgrade the mobile charger to protect you from yourself.

This is complete speculation in regard to their motive. I’ll take “the gen2 is cheaper to make” for $1000, Alex.
