New Wall Connector with WiFi

[Steinmetz]

Curious if anyone has purchased one yet. Looks like cable length is now fixed at 18 feet while in the past I think there was a short and long option. Does the WiFi really add any features or really for diagnostics?

According to the site, the Wifi allows charger firmware updates. Maybe later firmware will allow faster charging on big battery vehicles like the 500 mile range Cybertruck.

The cable on the new charger is about half the width of the old one ... I doubt we’ll see much more than 48 amps ... But the truck is still years away, who knows, maybe a Gen 4.

New charger and newer cars are currently limited to 48 amp charging on AC.
