My brother has a dryer that plugs into this outlet:
I believe that is referred to as NEMA 10-30 -- the actual outlet says 30A-250V on it. The outlet is just on the other side of a door that goes into the basement, no more than 20 feet from where I'd be able to park. Instead of having anything installed at his house, I'd like to be able to come up with an adapter to charge my Telsa (just ordered a Model S 70D). So I have two questions...
1) Would the only additional piece of equipment to make this charging idea work be this item:
NEMA 10-30P Dryer Plug to 14-50R EV Adapter, 30A,125/250V
2) Also, if I needed a little extra length, could I purchase this item (my confusion here is Tesla states not to use extension cords):
NEMA 10-30 Dryer Extension Cords for EV use, 30A (125/250)
Thank you for the help.
