We made it to the campground. We brought the MYP and our Prius Prime. The campground has a 50A, 30A, and two regular household outlets (they told me they didn't have them, but they are here).
I bought the Tesla 14-50 adapter at the service center. I took it out of the box for the first time today. I also got a 15A to 30A adapter from Harbor Freight for the Prius, which we didn't need since they have two household outlets.
Anyway, I have no idea what is going on with the other end of the Tesla 14-50 adapter. It doesn't seem to fit anything! I plugged the Tesla charging cord into the 15 to 30A adapter and plugged that into the 30A outlet. The car says that it is charging at 12A and it will take 11 hours and 30 minutes to go from 234 miles to 286 (100%).
I supercharged before getting here, so we have enough charge to get back to the Supercharger, which is 30 miles away. This is not an emergency, thankfully, but we had planned on going to WV and using their 50A, and there are no Superchargers. I'm happy to find out here that I have a problem instead of the middle of nowhere!
I left the car in camp mode since we have a 12V cooler in the sub trunk. We bought the Alpicool K25, which fits perfectly in the sub trunk. I have the sub trunk opened a few inches to vent. It worked great going from PA to OH. We plugged it into the room at the Airbnb we got (to have somewhere to go besides the back of the car!). It's been working out so far.
I'm getting 0 miles per hour.
Does this charge rate seem correct at 30A??
Any idea what is on the other end of the Tesla 14-50 adapter?
Pictures attached!! Thanks all!!
