Curious if anyone else has had issues using 3rd party chargers. I have this:
A ford Mach-e will charge to full with it, no problem. Trying to charge the Tesla with adapter, it will charge for a while, then charger will say ‘short circuit’ and stop, claiming 46a draw.
I’ve worked around it via the Tesla app, telling it to limit to 38a. So far that seems to work, though the charger still claims over 40a draw.
