    What is the added bonus of charging from a Tesla charger vs just plugging into the 240v outlet? If the little faster charg rate is not needed, is the other main benefit charging during off-hours for lower electricity charge? Trying to decide if buying the EV charger for 220v outlet is worth...

    On the Big Island, there are no superchargers. I use Plugshare to find and navigate to the nearest DCFC. It is hazardous to run Plugshare to look for the nearest DCFC when driving. Is there a safe way to link to one of these charger sites while driving?

They suggest the EV charger be outside the garage so nothing personal is possibly stolen, mitigate the issue. This is a first thought question(s), do you get 2 chargers split off the...

    The locking pin that locks the charger in the port is supposed to clear the square hole in the port when inserting and removing the charger.

    Toward the end of winter the button on my UMC stopped working for a while. Not a big deal then because the port was unlatched due to cold temps and you could press the door to open. A little more annoying above freezing as the port stayed latched so I had to start using the app to disengage. Not...

    Does a charging cable for the Model 3 charger power systems directly or through the battery? For example, if I run the heater while connected to a SuperCharger, does the heater draw power directly from the SuperCharger, or does it draw from the battery as the SuperCharger charges that battery?

    Just wanted to share a video I made of my own DIY installation of a charging station for my new Model 3. It's good for charging at up to 40 amps if your charger supports it. I took queues from other threads here while making material and installation decisions. Here's a link to the video on...

I previously filled up at work (no supercharger just regular EV charging station) and it cost me a little under $5...

    Nice juxtaposition to Munro teardown video. Rather than parts affixed to pegboard and labeled, the battery and charging components are named in the context of still being assembled. Executive Summary: ☻ Jack likes the battery. Uses superlatives such as "Work of art", "I've never seen anything...
