Hello all, I couldn't wait for my ordered Model 3, so have just ordered a Model S 75, for delivery in Aug / Sep - very excited!
I'm getting my home infrastructure sorted, and welcome views/opinions on home charging units and installers in the Nottingham area... home install should be v easy as consumer unit and meter are all in the same corner of my drive as the car charge socket will be... looking for tethered as no prospect of having anything other than a Tesla (!) and think I want usage tracking 'smart' option.
I'm trying to decide between (currently) 3 options:
The Tesla 32A charger looks the coolest, and the nominated local installers tell me 'it communicates better with the car' (true or sales patter?). It is £400 + £400 install; unsure if this allows recording/tracking of elec usage?
A friend has a pod-point charger; I'm waiting for their quote, but website says 7kW from £359 + connectivity option.
Chargemaster offer a 7kW one with comms option for £449 installed.
Any others I should consider? Is the Tesla one worth the extra?
Thanks, and looking forward to being part of the Tesla community!
Nick.
