Model 3 Accessories

Is that a good price though? Even Officeworks has the 500GB for $134 so not sure where Amazon is getting their big claimed discount from.

About the same price but I went with a Samsung 860 EVO ($112) and put it in an aluminium case ($12).

Was thinking about doing this with an SSD and external case but the form factor wouldn't fit into the new Jeda USB Hub and the T5 is the perfect size so I went with that.

Got my JEDA Wireless pad on its way ....

Jeda Wireless Pad | Tesla Model 3 Wireless Charger

My first accessory, feels like a leap of faith.

Me too! Now trying to add the NEW USB Hub to it, since I am already paying the shipping.

 

[ittah]

Did I read correctly somewhere that Tesla is including home charger in AU with Model 3?

I think they provide that with all Tesla’s. A Wall and Portable charger, purchaser needs to get electrician to wire the Wall Charger.

Just in case in helps, I added the USB Hub to my Jeda but, in order to do so and save some shipping $, they advised to cancel the order and re-order the combo. Which I did. Also the $15 discount coupon for the free “spacer” (the thing to support plugging in an older device, should you have one) has expired but if you ask their customer service they’ll give you a new code.

When I was combining them to test prices, adding the spacer added another USD$25 worth of shipping.

Yup, there is a notch in the dash trim for the steering wheel

EDIT: The Abstract Ocean says the dash wrap is both both LHD and RHD .... odd! I'm sure I've seen a notch in the wraps elsewhere.

The very early Model 3's didn't have the sliver of metal trim over the steering wheel notch, but that was limited to the first ~20k Model 3s. The current version of the dash is a mirror image of itself if you cut it in half

The shipping was weird. When I first bought the Jeda pad + spacer the international shipping was a flat rate USD$50. Then when I cancelled that order and made a new order with the pad + USB hub + spacer the international shipping came to USD$18. I think they might have a problem with their system but ... I didn’t point this out to them.

I'm getting my electrician to wire up a 3-phase socket onto the end of the HWC so it's removable, if required.

Wonder if that is legally allowed. The electricity install standards in this country are pretty draconian.

Those draconian laws are not limited to electricity installation standards. It's EVERY industry.

We are all being dumbed-down, so no thinking is required....

I ran my wall connector from a plug and socket for a while. I'm not an electrician, but as long as you don't overload the rating of the plug and socket you should be OK.

Yeah, like the building industry is totally over-regulated and self-regulation has brought nothing but sunshine, peace and prosperity to the community /s

Funny how some people complain about the Nanny state until something happens because regulation was poor or not enforced and end up on the wrong side of an outcome.

I am using the HPWC wired into a 32A commercial connector. It is totally acceptable and legit, that way it is semi-permanent and can be removed when desired/moving.

By the time you add the cost of the plug, socket, and wiring both, it seems a way cheaper option to hardwire direct to the HPWC.
Its unlikely your next place of residence will already have the socket, especially if its the single phase version pictured, which are rarely used.

For me it is easier because I don't need an electrician to move it/ask for the power to be cut etc. I can just unplug it and unscrew it from the wall. For any new place, it is something that I would just get written into the lease as a leasehold improvement.

 

[matsoutback]

And you can use the socket for other things if you’d like.

The Taptes wireless mobile charger is half the price of the Jeda & is exactly the same
