    2024 Eclipse Roadtrip Supercharger Experiences?

    I traveled from Omaha, NE to Cleavland, Ohio for Eclipse and to visit a cousin who just had a baby. I had no trouble finding places to get charged on trip. I took my sister and her husband along on trip. We also went to Niagra Falls Canada after the eclipse. We had a great time on trip...

    Will Tesla Buildup Superchargers to Accommodate Anticipated Demand from Ford, GM, Rivian, and whoever else, Adopting NACS circa 2024/2025?

    The biggest problem with Current and future Super Charger network is the Ellectrical infrastructure in most of US does not supply enough support to expand the charging network fast.

    For Tesla's in US that support CCS, I have a question. know we can get the CCS Combo 1 adapter. Will the CCS Combo 2 adapter work also outside US?

    For Tesla's in US that support CCS, I have a question. know we can get the CCS Combo 1 adapter. Will the CCS Combo 2 adapter work also outside US? I asked the Tesla Mobile Tech and he did not know. Do these Tesla cars also provide support for CCS Combo 2 outside US? If we travel to these...

    Availability of CCS 1 adapter refit for legacy Model X vehicles?

    Has anyone heard when the CCS 1 Adapter Refit will be available? It shows in service area for app that it will be available in early 2023. However, it still will not let me schedule a service to get it. I have a 2020 MX LR+ that indicates it is not currently installed.

    iPhone 14 Pro

    I had a similar issue. I have a Iphone 14 Pro. I found I had to delete the Tesla App and reinstall it to get current version. Then I had to log into it again. Now it is fine.

    CCS adapter compatibility for legacy Teslas in the US

    My 2020 Model X LR+ shows CCS Adapter not installed. I asked Service Center around Jan 2022 and they indicated, they do not know when or if an upgrade will be available. I see a model Y update string but none for Model X. Thanks if there is one!

    I saw a post by another user that there will be a Super Charger located in Omaha, NE by end of 2022. Is this true?

    500 + Mile Range Debate

    My MX 2020 LR+ shows 330+ miles for a full charge but in reality I get about 250 + miles here in midwest. Also super chargers are only on interstates in midwest.

    New tweet from Tesla: will sell their own CCS adaptor “soon” in North America

    The South Korea pages above indicate that this CCS1 adapter only works on M3 and MY models. I would assume they will soon add Models X and S

    Only CCS compatible?

    In the US only the Setec CCS 1 adapter is currently. It works in US at some CCS charging stations none of which show up on your screen. You can download apps to show you those chargers (like plug share) Best of luck.

    FSD Beta 9 this Saturday! (to beta testers)

    I bought FSD with my Model X 2020 car. I personally think if Tesla announces Beta FSD V 9, it should go to all of us that bought FSD. This playing around and doing limited releases after putting out teasers, is for the birds.

    What are your FSD hopes?

    Updates to road changes within a month of changes. Right now in Houston area there is a lot of construction and When you have selected Auto Navigate, it thinks entries and exits to and from Interstates, Highways and roads appear to be based on maps several years old.

    Home charging stopped during Texas Cold spell

    I have a model X 2020 LR+.. It has always charged fine. Over last week during the Cold spell in Houston Texas, it has not allowed charging at home either from Level 2 charger, 115 V adapter or from 14-50 adapter. I have gone to Super Chargers near me several times and charging there works...

    I have a Tesla and will be getting an additional EV from another OEM. What charger is best ?

    Based on reviews so far for VW ID4 and your Model Y, your 30 AMP circuit will take about 8 hours to fully charge each vehicle or 16 hours total. If you have the space in your circuit panel, you might want a 60 AMP circuit for Tesla and a 30 AMP J 1772 setup outside for the ID4.

    12V Battery drain with Hansshow power frunk kit

    I just got the Hansshow power Frunk a few weeks ago. I got it installed by a certified technician and he gave three recommendations. First, leave the frunk closed when model x is not in use. Second, lock it when you leave it. Third, make sure it goes to sleep after charging.

    Elon tweets "no waypoints", "car will autonavigate to your destination."

    For short trips of less than 100 miles, you do not need waypoints. However, for longer trips where you should stop for charging or to relax and stretch, you need waypoints that should correspond to Super Charger Stations. These should auto populate and allow override.

    Requirement to register EV with power company

    If you have your Level 2 charger installed by a licensed electrician, they check the power going into your circuit breaker box and power distributed to house to make sure there is enough supply available. That person will also usually put the level 2 charger on a separate breaker. Most places...

    CCS1 to Tesla Adapter is being developed by Tesla Korea Club.

    As has been posted elsewhere, there is a demand for CCS1 adapters in USA. Tesla has NOT been interested. Yes there is a large amount of Super Chargers here is USA. However, there are a lot of areas right now in USA where there are more CCS chargers than Super Chargers.
