Mobile connector question

[fj_fan91]

This is a stupid question but I wanted to confirm. For me to use the mobile connector on a 30A or 50A 240V outlet, I will have to buy an adapter correct? It looks like the adapter included goes from a standard 110V outlet to a unique connector on the mobile charger? There is nothing included that would immediately allow me to use it with either one of these outlets?

Correct. The included adapter is the 5-15 (standard wall plug). If you want to connect to something else, you will need to buy the appropriate adapter for it, either from tesla, or from someone selling one.

Tesla make a few of the more common options. They used to include the NEMA 14-50 adapter with the car as well, but now it has to be purchased separately.

If you have somewhat more peculiar needs these lovely people make basically everything else and even offer a cord that you can attach your own bizarre plug onto.

Thank you! I figured but wanted to make sure I didn't end up with duplicates/wasting money. I am taking delivery next Saturday so hoping to be prepared. I have an existing 240V outlet I can run an extension cord from for the time being until I get a home charger installed.
