Regular is NEVER enough...unless you enjoy being "Regular"....
The degree of uninformed opining regarding the digital plate is 2nd only to the non-owners opining on Tesla complaints.
I actually own a digital plate (2nd generation) and yes, right now it's gimicky but I can see how this is convenient in the future.

Maybe you like the idea, maybe you don't but could we at least know what we are talking about before jumping the OP?
Remember when buying the "Burning death trap" with the "Whompy Wheels" that we "Couldn't drive long distance" due to the "Lack of a charging infrastructure" from the company that was "Going out of business" was a horrible idea?
Of all the people... Tesla folks know better... or should.

I have never put those ugly sticker on my model 3 and I'm in the carpool lane all the time.
never been pulled over.
never been pulled over.
Fair enough ... I just don't want to give em any more reason to then my already tinted windows and lead foot
I really wish they would be brutal about enforcing it for a while and get people out of that habit. The amount of times I’ve been sitting stopped dead in the HOV lane and look in my rear view to see some fugwit riding solo in a vehicle without stickers, especially in a vehicle which can’t possibly be eligible, and then I think about how many jerks like that are head of me and contributing to me being stopped... sigh.
...but they don’t even enforce the rear license plate law despite there being no realistic situation where it’s legal for that car to be on the roads, so far chance I guess

Having been pulled over for tint on the front door windows, I also won't chance it either .......
Am I understanding the 0 power line correctly? As in, despite requiring to be plugged in, it won't drain my tesla battery and reduce total mileage?
The model that requires being hardwired in uses zero power when parked. It's a static e-ink display and the backlight is turned off.
Thanks for the info! Do you or anyone else know if hardwiring will void any warranty on the body or battery? And is there any safety issue such as it causing batteries to catch on fire?
Tesla would have to prove that the hardwiring of the plate caused an issue in order to deny warranty repair. I can't see why anything would catch on fire lol.
