Search Results for ‘charging’

I want to start going on some trips, but I see I'd have to supercharge it twice in one day. When I bought the model 3 the Tesla guy who took me to my car said only supercharge it once a week, if that to help keep the battery happy. Are people using Tesla's to travel, the guy kind of freaked me...

Tesla literature seems to say topping off each night is the best practice. I wonder with a 25 mile commute and less than an hour of charging at home would it be better to continue that, or charge maybe once a week? In my case it 'puts' back in 30+ miles (sentry mode and AC sap some); that turns...

The last major item/system to test was going to a supercharger. I level 2 at home and never plan on doing a road trip in MYLR (use wife's ICE for that). But wanted to make sure I knew how to get the deed done at a SC. Saw a few videos on do's and don'ts. Every other stall and all that. FYI at a...

Good morning everyone, I would need some help to figure something out. I have owned my Model YLR for over two months now and utilize a Tesla Wall Charger at home. I typically charge to 80% with an increase to 90% one day a week due to long range travel needs. When I first got my Tesla, I would...

I have read a lot of posts on battery degradation, some very scientific, which I did not understand and some which I didn't think covered my issue. I received my MY LD on March 2, 2020. It came with the charge range set at 85% and I would essentially get approximately 286 miles on a full charge...

Hi all, New to the forum, and just about to pick up my Model 3 shortly but wanted to ask something as that will drive an onwards purchase. I've had a PHEV for a year or so and have a 3 Pin Charger for that, which given the limited mileage we do, has been fine for us. I know with a full EV it's...

Hi All Last Sunday, we got the delivery of our 7 seats Model Y Long Range. So far we are loving it. We had the home charger installed yesterday and I had a technician coming over due to a problem with opening the glove box which allowed me to raise some questions that I had after using the...

I'm in a bit of a jam, so thanks in advance for listening. Rented a model 3 from a small specialty rental service back in LA. I'm visiting the Grand Canyon, and was counting on the Chargepoint charging station at my hotel to keep me operational. So I'm here in Williams, AZ and lo and behold -...

third generation tesla chargers new in box $375 obo

Having an electrician install my Tesla V3 charger in my garage. Received a quote of $1600 to install a 50amp system and $2500 for a 60amp system? I’m leaning towards the 50 amp set up but wanted to ask if any of you feel the 60 amp would be a better option given that it would cost $900 more???

Last night I took my Model 3 to charge in a ChargePoint location and this early morning I found a black VE EGolf that took the charging hose from my car to start charging his/her. The lssue is that that cars appears on my Sentri memory but it turned off after and I couldn’t see who was the...

My wife and I are looking for a vacation home in the Colorado Springs area. We'd like to get to know the area a bit better before purchasing something so we're considering renting an apartment in the area so we can explore a bit. I'm kind of flabbergasted at the lack of charging options for...

My interest in Cybertruck is mainly as a tow vehicle for a travel trailer. My concern is about charging WHILE connected to the trailer. Backing into a Supercharger isn’t a great option. Nor is disconnecting the trailer before each charge. The existing Supercharger network doesn’t seem well...
