Missing part of charge kit

[Bigjohn892]

Ready to charge my new Model S refreshed and found there isn't an cord adapter in the kit to connect from a wall socket to the cord. Looked on line at pictures of the kits and the adapter I need is shown. Did they forget or do I have to pay extra to buy it?

It should be included in the bag. with the adapter. You should also have a J1772 adapter. These may both be in plastic in the bag. Notify your Tesla store immediately if they are not there.

It should have included a J1772 adapter and a 120V regular plug. For better charging you should get a NEMA 14-50.

The only item in the zipper bag that will plug in to power is a 120vac adapter. Don't they send a 14-30 plug?

That would be the 5-15 adapter for regular 120V outlets.

Oh, so it IS actually included. Why did you say it wasn't at first?

No, they have never included a 14-30 adapter. They used to include the 14-50 adapter with every car, but they stopped including that several years ago. That's not a new change. And it makes sense. People are using a lot of different types of outlets to charge, so always including that very specific one was just not helpful and was not being used by a lot of people and was just a waste. Let people get the adapter for whatever they are going to charge from.

Glad you found it.
