The theory is, if you need the j1772 adapter, you are not using the UMC. So you will not need to unpack the bag.
Indeed - the chances that I'll need to use the UMC is slim. But the chance that I'll want to use the J1772 adapter is much higher so I'd like to keep it close at hand instead of buried in the frunk/trunk. On the S, there was that very handy compartment in the glove compartment to stash the J1772 adapter and keep it from rolling around which doesn't exist on the X. I too would appreciate knowing exactly how the OP situated the adapter in the driver's door pocket so that it's secured. For now, I've shoved it all the way in the back of that pocket in an upright position which seems to be doing pretty well but if there's a better location/position, would love to hear it.

Easier to access instead of opening the frunk and taking out the bag when I go to a public charger.
Will give that shot and keep the adapter in the driver door pocket as it rolls around in the glovebox
The air blows faster if it's in circulate mode vs biohazard. Biohazard slows the air volume. Also it's easy for the fan to blow with setting on cool but still have the AC off. Not sure why that is. If you have it at 69 and it's 80 in the car why is the AC not powered on?

My theory is this is due to the HEPA filter. The higher the MERV rating of a filter the more particles will be filtered out, but it will also require more air be blown through the filter.

We don't have an S so perhaps you all already knew this but you have to do a hard press on the windshield wiper fluid button to get fluid to come out. Otherwise it just runs the wipers. Probably belongs more in a Dummies Guide to Model X, but at first we thought our X was delivered without wiper fluid
Not a bad theory. However, it doesn't sound like the fan drawing through the filter. It sounds like the cooling fan for the compressor. You may be right, though - I could probably just pull my HEPA filter out and see how it works without the filter.

Doh! All this time I was doing a Space X Falcon 9 landing on the adapter.
I finally found that bag and found those rails -- no screws I presume.

Need to make sure doors are unlock to be able to open Falcon Doors from the screen.
When in valet mode, frunk does not open.

Did you know that when the car goes into regen braking that the brake lights come on? Makes sense, but I never noticed it until I had had the car for awhile.
I keep mine in the front part of the door pocket that bulges out enough to hold a water bottle. It fits perfectly and doesn't rattle or roll around.
depending on how strong you regen. It probably uses an accelerometer just like the Model S.
The hood/frunk can be opened by anyone via the emergency access latch release. Security through obscurity.
Oh boy this is so far the most valuable tip I've read. In my recent trip I thought the Frunk was the safest place to store my important documents and kept them there.. what an Irony
