I'm a little surprised Tesla hasn't designed a new "Arctic Mobile Connector" or something that runs another lower voltage line from the box down to the handle of the connector that then heats the handle. You wouldn't need it getting real hot, just 40F or something to keep from freezing. You probably could even have the mobile connector only turn it on in very cold temperatures or something if you added a temperature sensor to it. Maybe an extra $100 compared to a replacement or something if you want to buy it outright or an exchange program of $50 + turn in a good condition mobile charger that came with the car, etc.
