    Tesla now selling Gen 2 Wall Connector with J1772 plug

    I think I'll wait until I'm back in Florida and check with the condo management and the city/county about EV charging regulations for short term rentals. Thanks everyone for all the information. I think I'm back to where I started with the Tesla J1772 wall connector or equivalent from...

    Tesla now selling Gen 2 Wall Connector with J1772 plug

    A little off topic but I have a short term rental property in Siesta Key that I'd like to add a charging station in the garage. Do I go with the Tesla J1772 or a dumb charger like the Grizzl-e.

    Firmware 5.8.6/7/8/9/10

    Car won't charge after running 5.8.8. It's funny because the Villa Park service center is picking the car up on Monday for it's annual exam. Lucky that I'm only 4 miles from the Normal, IL supercharger and the car took a charge from it. Can't wait for more sc's.

    8/3 - Indy to Normal SC lunch trip

    Pics from the Indiana SC trip have been posted on the evtown facebook page. Search facebook for evtown. I plan on using the SC tonight and will check on signage and ICE use. It would be nice if the city would paint the spaces green like the Soldier Field garage and other charging areas.
