Won't really matter for the Tesla adapter, which is limited to 125A. At 350V (~50% SOC), that's only 44kW.Also Charge Point will be coming out with their 350kw 400kw versions soon.

No risk, it will just say not compatible. Others have tried, you don't need to botherFedex delivered the adapter yesterday but I am still on 20.4.4, so supposedly not compatible. Is there any risk to trying it out just in case?
When did you place your order? I ordered mine on July 11th.Fedex delivered the adapter yesterday but I am still on 20.4.4, so supposedly not compatible. Is there any risk to trying it out just in case?
CAD $602... nickle and dime-ing the case for EV... constant trickle of costs related to charging...Wow $450!
Yep, Supercharger desert between Calgary, AB and Sudbury, ON (more than 3,000km). Mind you, I do recall a recent TMC post showing one under construction in Sault Ste Marie, ON.I don't know about USA, but there are a lot of places in Canada where such an adapter is going to be very useful.

There's now a CHAdeMO charger at the Walmart in Clarkesville, AR courtesy of Electrify America. So, from the east to Ft. Smith and back is now cake if you have an adapter. And the through drive on I-40 between Little Rock, AR and Oklahoma City, OK is now doable with a LR Model 3 + adapter. Though it may be a bit tight or weather dependent even for LRs as OKC to Clarkesville is 250 miles. But it is much easier if you detour through Tulsa. See this post.Whew!! great news for all those model 3's at ½ charge, driving thru the bad lands on i40, approaching the Fort Smith AR area, either from the east or west, because there is no supercharger there. Been waiting since before the Model 3 wait list opened. Oh wait, no CHAdeMO there either. Baah - never mind ... it's only a major route.

I remember the 0~75kw price is 0.25 per minute. You cannot use more than 50kw.My issue with the EA CHAdeMO charging is the per-min rate of 89¢. I charge 20 minutes on a supercharger for about $3. On EA, it would be $17 and I wouldn't have nearly the mileage added. I do like the way Tesla charges on a per-mile basis. It ensures you are getting out what you are paying for, vs. just time spent sit-in there.
Superchargers aren't always per kWh, in Texas and other states where only "utilities" are allowed to charge per kWh, it's priced per minute (though much cheaper than EA, it seems)My issue with the EA CHAdeMO charging is the per-min rate of 89¢.

That's mostly Chademo desert, too, still. It will get you from Winnipeg to Thunder Bay, though.Yep, Supercharger desert between Calgary, AB and Sudbury, ON (more than 3,000km). Mind you, I do recall a recent TMC post showing one under construction in Sault Ste Marie, ON.

Max 125 Amps using the adapterIt does say 21¢ at my closest EA for 75kw. What do you mean by you cannot use more than 50?
That is the highest tier price but it seems quite unlikely that a Tesla will fall into that price category since the charging is limited to 125 Amps. EA says that the tier is determined early in the charge session.My issue with the EA CHAdeMO charging is the per-min rate of 89¢.
While I think its great Tesla finally supports CHADEMO, it's a dying standard in the USA and CCS ist he real future for non-Tesla vehicles. CHADEMO will be great for those narrow use cases, but those will get fewer and fewer as time goes on and the adapter is darn expensive for what it is.
I carry several 240V adapters in my car to charge with and others, and I plan on getting the CCS adapter once that becomes available. Unfortunately, if you look at high-speed charging for Electrify America as it stands today, it'll cost 2-3x as much (roughly what it costs to drive a 30MPG vehicle on unleaded today if you use EA high-speed charging) compared to a Tesla supercharger for the same amount of energy.
I don't think people speak enough about the Tesla Supercharger network, it's the secret sauce that makes Tesla's better than all other EVs to drive anywhere you want to go and at a cheap price to boot compared to the competition. I'll just carry the CCS adapter as backup for those rare areas I can't get to a supercharger, or some gas explosion closes it down or whatever catastrophic event happens to shut down an important supercharger station (or maybe it's crowded and I need to get somewhere fast), I like to be prepared.
