• I am a Tesla driver, what additional benefits do I get compared to other electric vehicles?
  As a Tesla driver you benefit from the seamless integration of charge post and vehicle, optimized route planning and battery pre-conditioning. With your Tesla, you’ll also have access to the lowest Supercharger pricing.

So who will be the first to post a video or image of this working? Just go into the Tesla app, click your acct. then sipe left on the icons below your image and choose Charge Your Non-Tesla and you'll see all the chargers you can use:

West coast:

Placerville, CA
Scott's Valley, CA

East Coast:

Batavia, NY
Brewster, NY
Hancock, NY
Fredonia, NY
Malta, NY
Parish, NY
Red Hook, NY
Verona, NY

Does a picture of the undocked MagicDock count:

It looks like 8 sites in NY, and two in CA so far.

$12.99/month to get the cheaper Tesla vehicle pricing. ($0.10/kWh discount at the sites I looked at.)

Without the monthly fee, looks like CCS pricing is set at $0.49/kWh for the NY sites (except Red Hook which is $0.51) and $0.52/kWh for the CA sites. Is the plain Tesla pricing $0.10 below those figures?

Do we know if the Magic Dock will eventually be a consumer product that can be used at any Supercharger location in North America?

I don't see how this would work. In order for it to work, you have to use the Tesla app to select the specific stall you are at to enable charging. If you just brought your own Magic Dock connector to an arbitrary Supercharger that doesn't have a Magic Dock already, the app wouldn't have the pin for your to select your stall & start charging.

Highly unlikely. Just like they have only opened select sites in Europe even though they all have CCS connectors.

That seems like a software problem. Make the app identify your location and then ask you which stall you're parked in. Plug adapter into cable, then plug into car. Supercharger negotiates and starts sending electrons.

A video of a Ford F-150 Lightning charging:

Though it doesn't show much information. (Like how much power it delivered.)

blocking two stalls?

 

[MP3Mike]

blocking two stalls?

No, using one stall and blocking one stall. Unless another non-Tesla comes and uses the "blocked" stall.

I am surprised that Tesla start with urban states like NY instead of rural states like ND.

Another video on the subject, OoS Dave last week drove to all the Superchargers near the factory trying to find the one's that had been retrofitted. In this video he is charging a Genesis GV60

Can a Tesla be charged be charged using the "Magic CCS Adapter" pluged into a "Tesla CCS Combo 1 Adapter" ?

Note: If you have both a Tesla and a Non-Tesla and decide getting the Tesla Membership,
you could then pay less to charge your Tesla using the Non-Tesla rate during peak hours.

I wonder how Tesla is deciding what Superchargers to install Magic Docks at?

 

[Watts_Up]

I wonder how Tesla is deciding what Superchargers to install Magic Docks at?

I think the Tesla App should ask two questions:

- 1. Which Charger number are you using?

- 2. Which Charger location are you parked?

Otherwise, in the picture above, if there are four Non-Tesla charging using two spots location,
then none will be accessible, but the Tesla App will mention four available.
