I'm currently charging my 2022 Model 3 RWD with a regular 110v 12a NEMA 5-15 outlet. I get 8km/hr (5miles/hr), which is much more than what Tesla advertises on their website (they say 4.8km/hr).
I live in a townhouse and I had an electrician take a look at my panel - he said it looks pretty full. This is just based on what he saw without doing an inspection. He said I won't be able to install anything over 20amps without an inspection. Since I'm already "pretty maxed", I probably won't be able to install a 30amp anyway so the inspection seems like a bit of a waste of money. 20amps would be nice...but again, not sure if it's worth the cost of the inspection, especially since he could do the inspection and then find out that I can't even do 20amps.
However, he said he would be able to install a 2-pole 15amp breaker and NEMA 6-15 outlet without an inspection.
I'm curious, anyone here charging with 6-15? If so, what are your real world charging speeds like? Should I expect more than the Tesla figure of 17.7km/hr?
Thank you.
