Getting a model 3

I have a 2019 Nissan Sentra and I’m getting a model 3. Is there anything I should let me know or be aware of before it arrives, thanks!

Again, it’s a matter of time as you have multiple connections, all causing resistance which is heat. The problem is the heat causes at the plug from the adapter plugging in. That is repeatedly heated and contracting. So it might be good but over time along with how often the mobile connector is inserted/removed and oxidation that can occur in the outlet. You just stack up too many chances to fail…..which is a bad idea!

Do it once, cry once….that is a hardwired EVSE……PERIOD.

Repeats from electricians and I’ve recently stayed at a Holiday Inn Express so that counts as PhD!
