Gen 1/2 is capable of higher charge rates vs Gen 3. For those who have a need for this feature, the Gen 1 is actually desirable over the newer Gen 3. There's also the fact that the Gen 1/2 doesn't have to "call home" to charge so no network connectivity is required. Given Tesla's history with communication issues this is also preferable for many. Summary: If you don't put value in any of these advantages, just get a Gen 3 HPWC.

The newer generation versions can only handle 48 A. There is high demand for these original units that can still deliver 80 A.

Could you elaborate on this please? I have the newest one (Gen3) installed in my garage and it can't connect to the router in my house most of the time. However, I've had no problem charging my MYLR. In fact, when I first installed the Wall Connector, I couldn't get it to connect to wifi at all and it still charged the car. What is the purpose of the "call home" function?

Thanks.
