For a Tesla Model-3, this charger can add up to 44 miles of range per hour. The Tesla Universal Wall Connector costs $595 per unit at the time of this writing and is natively compatible with virtually all new EVs on the road today. Owners of the Nissan Leaf and...
Say one puts in a 40A 240 VAC breaker pair in there and hooks it up to a Tesla. The Tesla does its thing and draws 32A on Line1 and 32A on Line2, simultaneously, and nothing on Neutral. How much headroom we got before the Mains at 60A pops? Well, there's two breakers in there...

Hi everyone- I just got my Tesla yay I am planning to run 6/3 romex cable (~70ft) with 5O Amp circuit breaker and limit the wall charger amperage. My electrical panel is at the basement on the opposite side of the garage and I need to run part of the cable outside the build...
...but being the sort of person I am, I first checked and was surprised to see the wall connector is now a mere $495 (and is still the 24ft cord) am I right? Did it just drop by $55 ? That seems so unlike Tesla Here is my $.02. Just add the price of the Gen 3 HPWC...
Tesla is one of the only makers that allows greater than 12 amp charging at 120 VAC, however, this requires a special adapter for their UMC mobile charger. Most owners will not have this, or not know about the utility. What will happen if you spec 20 amp circuits is that the highest ...
What outlet would you suggest Tesla use to draw 32A continuously? The 240V outlets you’ve seen in homes were 30A circuits for dryers, so a car could only draw 24A continuously. I thought you were all about charging faster. That's not the question. The question is why did Tesla cut ...
Nearly everyone I talk to about my Teslas asks about charging and I promise that one of the few things they remember about our conversation (usually with hundreds of new facts for them) is that, while traveling, you can easily charge at campgrounds and other places all over the country ...
box and install my connector, or $2500 to install the Tesla charger adapter and about 10 feet of conduit. "But we can't use your breaker, box or connector, we can't use that Home Depot c__p". (I bought the stuff from the local electrical supply house by the way). T...
