Hello,
Just got enough referral points to get the wall connector charger. I don't think I would have ordered it otherwise, but didn't see anything else to order as enticing. I've been using just the mobile connector on a 110-outlet for the past two years and it will be nice to have the flexibility of the quick charge.
I have a few questions:

I have a few questions:
- I assume since I didn't spend any money on this charger I cannot claim any CO-State/Federal tax credits on the item, but can claim on the install?
- The install quote is $1600-1800 which seems high, but my panel box is on the opposite side of the house and the electrician will need to use a lot of copper to get to the garage. Is this reasonable?
- I back in to the right side of my 3-car garage, so the ideal location for my car is on the right wall closest to the charge port. This is ideal for our 1-Tesla family, but if we were to ever get a second Tesla would the wall connector charger be easy to move or should I rearrange the cars in the garage to find a spot that would be better to reach two cars? (this is a good question for the electrician, but I'd like to hear from your experiences)
- The electrician was planing on running a 50 amp wire to a 15-40 connector, but the next day a referral went through and I asked if he could connect the wall charger. He said no problem. Does he need to wire for 60 amp output now?
- Do I also need to order the Wall Connector Wirebox Kit & Wall Connector Fastener Kit or does the Wall Connector come with everything I need by default?
- I couldn't order the Universal Wall Connector with the credits, is there an adapter that goes from the Tesla Wall Connector to a non-Tesla EV?
