I’m charging using a mobile connector plugged into a standard 120 volt home outlet getting 12 amps. Tesla’s documentation states: “A 120 volt outlet will supply 2 to 3 miles of range per hour charged.”
I have a need to charge to 100% with an expected departure at 8am Friday. I upped the charge limit to 100 and plugged in to get an estimated time to fully charge. The math I’m seeing doesn’t make sense. What am I missing?
Current SOC is 81% (267 mi.). MYLR fully charged is 330 mi. So I have 67 miles of charge to go. With 2-3 miles added per hour it should take 21-30 hours to reach 100%.
Why is the car telling me I will be at 100% in 12.5 hours. That’s over 5 miles of ranger per hour being charged.
If it truly will charge this quickly I will plug in the night before and use scheduled departure.
I’m not complaining that I’m getting a faster charge than expected from an L1 charger on a 120 outlet. I would like to know if others have the same experience. Is this normal. Or do I have some fancy voodoo magic outlet/connector?
