My husband and I have just purchased a “new to us” 2010 Roadster Sport (photos attached) so we are excited to join the Roadster community here on TMC. We have been MS owners since Dec 2012.
I have a question about charging the Roadster. We purchased a Henry Sharp CAN Sr adapter for Roadster to Tesla2 plug which is supposed to work with the HPWC, but did not come with any instructions. We have an 80 amp HPWC (MS has dual charger) but the Roadster doesn't charge using the adapter. The adapter works fine with a standard outlet using the Tesla2 cable from our MS and also we used a public J1772 (using the J1772 to Tesla2 adapter that comes with the Model S). Is it possible we are having problems because we have an 80 amp HPWC? Does anyone on this forum have any experience with the CAN Sr adapter and using it with a HPWC? If yes, how many amps was it?
The purchase came with a Roadster wall connector, however we want a charging solution that is flexible and will also work with Model 3 next year. We are currently using a standard 110 outlet, however the one in the garage is not good enough so we have to connect via an extension cord into the house. This is less than ideal so we will call an electrician, but we need to decide what changes we want to make in advance. Any help is appreciated.
