TSLA will win
Did anyone get pictures or the size of this 90 kW charging station? I understand there was one there refilling the test drive cars.
Haven't seen one yet. I'll certainly try to get a shot tomorrow.

A vid I took of the Model S UMC connected to a test box.
They had one of the engineers who works on the chargers in the VIP tent. It doesn't sound like they are planning on converting Roadsters to new plug but he didn't know for sure. It's definitely something they should do.Is Tesla going to provide a way for Roadster owners to convert to the Model S connector? Or perhaps another $750 adapter we have to stuff into the trunk hope no one will steal it while we're charging?

The new plug is simply amazing. Smaller cable, great industrial design, hefty yet lightweight feel. About the size of my electric razor and heft like it was full of batteries (it is not). Great feel for men and women. The J connector feels massive and cheapy plasitc compared to this beauty.

Button on top for sending Rf signal to open the charge port door (pretty sure) and button also releases the connector from the car.
I was also told there will most likely be a Models-->Roadster adapter but not the other way around; the Roadster plug is "too big and heavy" to be hanging on the side of the Model S.
The button is for lock/release. There is a proximity detector which opens the chargeport door when you approach with the chargeplug,...

It is designed quite nicely. It's what the Yazaki J-connector shouldhave been. But if they were going to design their own connector, I think they should have made it three-phase capable so that it could be a world connector. Only needs two more pins.The new plug is simply amazing. Smaller cable, great industrial design, hefty yet lightweight feel.
