Good video. However, you need to show your viewers that's NOT the way to park. All none Teslas need to park next to each other and take the stall to the left of their vehicle. While all Teslas need to park next to each other and take the stall to the right of the Tesla, meaning the driver's side when parked in reverse as they normally do. In this manner, only 1 stall in all will be lost for the entire site. It's just a learning curve and you as an EV KZreadr and influencer should make several videos with your Tesla and invite other friends that have none Teslas, so that your viewers (whether they have a Tesla or a none Tesla) can see and learn for themselves. And then pass that knowledge on to others.

Raj, for the first 5 minutes, your audio only worked on one-channel. Jim Farley’s audio was both channels. Ford recommends positioning EV on dividing line, not angle parking.

Do you need to verify that you have the new Tesla software update before attempting to charge ?

I hope EA will adopt NACS connector

Can you give me the website to purchase this adapter please. Ford is backed up till October for sending their chargers.

excited, big news this is

When Rivian gains access, will those customers be able to use the Ford adaptor ? I doubt it. This adapter likely contains a microchip that confirms that the vehicle is a Ford and and that the adapter genuine Ford issued adapter. There may also be a chance that the adaptor may identify if the vehicle has been tagged as stolen.---- Well, I have done some research and it seems like I may be wrong. the A2Z adapter, while not recommended, is not blocked from use and does work. Don't cry if the non-genuine adapter hurts your car in some way due to bad quality.

I’m thinking of getting a Mach-E. I currently own a Tesla model Y with an at home Tesla garage charger. Will the adapter also work with the at home Tesla Garage charger?

No, this adapter is only for Superchargers (Level 3/DC Fast Charging). For Level 1 or 2 (AC/home charging), you need a different adapter. This adapter doesn't even have the AC pins on the vehicle side (Tesla uses the same pins for AC and DC, CCS has discreet pins for each, and the adapter would need to be much more complex and "active" to handle that kind of switching). The AC adapters are readily available though, and a good thing to throw in the glovebox of a non-Tesla if taking trips where you might want to charge overnight at a hotel or Airbnb that has a Tesla destination charger.

My brother has a Mach-e I told him to get the adapter

How is the payment conducted to tesla for Ford custimers?

So ford customers have their car in the ford pass app that has all their billing. So Tesla does the passing of information and handshakes but it results in a seamless process for the customer. In the Pass app u can see how much you are charged

🔥🔥🔥

I think future vehices that use the Supercharging network should have the charging port on the rear drivers side like Teslas, otherwise it’s gonna be problem ….. 🤔

Ford should chip in to help expedite changing these to V4. Until then, I doubt many Tesla owners on the go will give 2 cents about non-tesla vehicles, especially after being victims of being ICE'd over the years.

You should of bought a tesla in the first place place bro most non tesla ev owners hate telsa

Yes, it just works. Tesla folks have been saying that for 12+ years. Sadly it’s taken the rest of the automotive world to come to that same conclusion. If all these legacy automakers had embraced Tesla instead of ignoring and disparaging them think how far ahead EV adoption would be today. But better late than ever.

That was a J117 AC connector NOT a CCS1 DC connector. Raj, you should know the difference. We need FACTS with correct examples for New EV owners. EVSE = Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment.. pass it on. They are not chargers as the AC charger is in the vehicle.

I traded my model y for a cadillac lyriq

I still hate that every major install still every day is V3... they've had 1.5 years to work on it... up to 4 if you count knowing cybertuck really would need it... adn we have only a handful of stations that went online a few months ago... compared to europe... it really is like they haven't done any planning. Other thing I dislike is the adapter itself... while you didn't show it, I've not yet see anyone not struggle with disconnecting the adapter from the nacs cable... just a really akward position to try to do with one hand on adapter one hand on the tesla plug. the worst thing, though, is all the hatred i am seeing online... both directions... end of the day, Tesla decided to do this... it is what it is at this point.. and there is no correct place for a port... they all are placed for a reason.. even cybertruck isn't in the far driver's rear for a reason.

Tesla should have required the port be in a suitable location before being able to use the Supercharger network. Notice in the beginning of his video the last usable space (for a non-Tesla) is a handicap space. Just for the optics he should have waited until some Teslas departed before parking, and staying, in a handicap spot.

hi

I like your videos but this one you seemed to blab on and on with this one. You went all around the tree to get to the point

Tesla IS SUPPORTING THE WHOLE EV CONVERSION FROM ICE VEHICLE, Tesla KNOW THAT IF OTHER EV BRAND EASILY CHARGE THEIR VEHICLE WILL ENCOURAGE BUYER TO BUY EVs...

Audio sucks. Don't you listen to your videos when editing?

I hate to be that guy. However, I own a model X 2022 and purchased it because of Teslas supercharger network solely for Tesla owners. I’m not cool with Tesla opening the network up to non-Teslas.

I know i know i see your point but another way to look at it is this will help fund even more chargers so that tesla owners won’t feel that the chargers are being taken over by others. Also it pushes the electrification movement forward

I wasn’t cool with model s owners hogging my ChargePoint and EVgo units with their chademo adapters when all I heard in 2015 and after how great there network was

You bought a Mach-E? LOL I'm unsubscribing.
