    Just installed a new Wall Charger in preparation for a new car next week. It is provisioned at 60 amps. From the limited documentation, it looks like it should show 5 green leds on the face of the charger. It did show these during the setup, now it only shows one. Is this normal?

    Thanks for the help.

    Yes, one stationary green light is the normal status when you are not charging, regardless of the provisioned amperage. During charging, the combination of green lights will scroll downward one at a time.

    If this is your first-time use of the charger, look on your car's display when you first plug in to verify the current draw climbs to a full 48A (80% of your 60A circuit rating).

    A gray MYLR. it is almost arriving too quickly. I had 7 weeks left my on Jeep lease. Tesla was quoting 2 to 6 weeks delivery time for a Y. Between order and deliver will be exactly two weeks. Crazy fast.

    Yeah, that's quite fast. It took 10 months from the time I ordered to delivery but I ordered in Aug 2019 before they had even started deliveries.

    When you look back, I'm guessing you won't mind spending an extra month or so of lease payments to start driving your new Tesla earlier. It's such a good driving experience.
