    80 Amp wall charger potiential fire hazzard?

    I also own an infrared camera and I do heat testing, problem is it is very hard to test this unit as the cover has to be installed before it will work. I will take some photos tonight. I still content that anything requiring #3 copper cable should have a better connector PLUS the little metal...

    80 Amp wall charger potiential fire hazzard?

    Compression VS mechanical connectors Those very small one screw connectors seems very weak to me. They should have used double hole compression type connectors. If I install a new one this is the connector I will use. I have been in the power installation business for 45 years. I used to work...

    80 Amp wall charger potiential fire hazzard?

    I am thinking I just got a defective unit? - - - Updated - - - I tested those connection myself. I am 6 foot 2 inches and weight 250 pounds and I could not get them any tighter. Even their own electrician said he saw no problem with the connections.

    80 Amp wall charger potiential fire hazzard?

    I bought my Model S P85D in March 2015. Along with it I ordered the $750.00 wall charger. I had an electrician hook it up and since he had #2 copper cables he gave me a price break (instead of the smaller #3, recommend as minimum by Electrical code for maximum amperage). He placed it less than...

    SuperCharger - Denton, Tx

    Yes I20 is needed BUT more of a crisis is I10 between Columbus, TX and El Paso, TX? For that matter I10 all the Way from Houston to Casa Grande/Phoenix, AZ is WAY behind? Living in Houston , I can only go North or East.

    SuperCharger - Denton, Tx

    Everyone, and I mean everyone in Houston and Dallas EAST Texas ETC, who travels to Denver (or Colorado for that matter) takes route 287 through Wichita Falls and Childress. So those locations are really high on my list. Does anyone know where we can submit our "requests". :)

    Do you mean more aggressive (IE slows the car down faster) or maximum number higher than the 60KW it does now.

    Wiki Model S software/firmware changelog

    Thanks for the reply. I mistakenly assumed these updates where tailored to each car (or had the ability to adapt to each car's makeup). That being said; is there some way I can adjust the range? I am sure I can get 250 miles per charge if I keep my speed down to the limit. That should give me a...

    Wiki Model S software/firmware changelog

    I thought they were going to improve the map routing??? before when I plotted Houston to Miami, it routed me north to Minneapolis then over to Chicago and then down through Atlanta to Maimi. NOW with the new 239; it routes me Northwest to Denver up to Wyoming then over through South Dakota AND...

    Firmware 6.2

    Bugs the hell out of me too. I too USED TO put my foot on the brake as soon as I get in. I am now re-training myself to put the seat belt on prior to touching anything. What I MIGHT do is buy one of those set belt extension things and leave it plugged in all the time, that way I never have to...

    Tesla Pickup Truck

    Diesel trains are really diesel generators that power electric motors to the wheels. I assume a truck would do well. Problem is Working trucks are on the go all day long. Personal pickup owners are mostly cowboy types that like big sound and gas burning. (I said mostly) I have a pickup that I do...
