This is exactly the kind of information I needed. Loved how clearly it was explained. As a first time buyer of an electric car, thank you!

Literally saved my life. Rented a Tesla and needed to get a charge to get back to the rental center and was sitting at a chargepoint station frustrated and found your video. I quick search in the trunk and voila...I was charged up.

Thank you for taking the time to create this for us newbies!

New to Tesla, just bought one. So nicely and clearly explained. Thanks !

Thank you
I’m a new Tesla owner and was wondering.. thanks again.
Good job

I keep my adapter in my car too.
I normally use superchargers or charge at home, but you never know, so its best to be prepared. 😉😁

Makes me love the Tesla’s experience that much more

Thanks for this! Have had my Model 3 since September, going to the park(Shelby Farms, Memphis), which has free charging (from solar) and plan to top off and use the adapter for the first time, just wanted to make sure I do it right! 👍🏾

It would be worth putting your mobil number on the adapter just in case you forgot to remove it.

Thank you so much, Terry - this was a perfect explanation!!

Terry - and I thought you were just an Adobe guy; glad to see you are a Tesla guy too!!!

I wish I could have watched your vid b4 heading to the EV station... thx again for the tutorial.

Just the vid I was looking for. Nicely done.

If you forget the adapter would you not be able to replace the charger in the receiver so you couldn’t really forget?

[crazaholic]

Thank you so much. This is exactly what I wanted to know.

[jontorr]

Thank you for this video! I'm looking to buy a Tesla, but there aren't any superchargers near me so i'm glad to know this information! :) It can be overwhelming looking into EVs for the first time, so this definitely helps!

[richards]

Great video! You instructions we very clear & precise. Should you pre-condition the battery on a non-testa charger?

[Ezduztube]

It would be hard to forget that adapter since you need to plug 🔌 the charger back to the station.

Clearly laid out for the EV rook. Thanks.
