  1. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    Because it’s complete nonsense. Anyone who knows a fair amount about EVs knows it’s nonsense. If you don’t know it’s nonsense, you can Google each of these points and quickly educate yourself to see it’s nonsense. I don’t need to spend half an hour writing an essay, while the Internet is replete...
  2. Review From Former Owner & Future Owner + What I Want in R1.2

    Main question is, How much money did you make on the resale?
  3. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    Wrong. The CCS adapter is not provided for free. It costs a couple hundred dollars. The adapter that’s provided for free is for charging from a J1772 connector (L2 charging).
  4. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    Tesla tried the magic jack solution in the US, but it was a limited trial. With that solution, the price per kWh charged to non-Tesla EVs was higher than that charged to Tesla EVs at the same time of day or night. The magic lack solution is unlikely to be rolled out further. The new solution is...
  5. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    So, stop repeating your fallacy. Logic is not one of your strengths. Just because you want Tesla to automatically open their charging network to anyone who uses the open-specification NACS, doesn’t mean that they have to. They are not compelled to do so because you can’t tell the difference...
  6. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    This is 100% wrong. Rivian DC chargers use the CCS1 standard, yet they don’t allow any non-Rivian’s EVs to charge. It’s a walled-garden charging network with a standard-based CCS1 adapter.
  7. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    I called it a specification, but it will become an open standard. What you quoted means absolutely something that you still do not understand. NACS is not the same thing as the Tesla Supercharger network. NACS is already used by EVGo. You can have a vehicle equipped with a NACS charging port...
  8. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    And so is the Tesla Supercharger network. It’s about time you started understanding the difference between the NACS specification and the Tesla Supercharger network. The former is an open specification (soon to be an open standard), while the latter is a walled garden. You have to comply with...

    Then, you should have no problem replacing one of them. Give it a try.
  10. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    Those that aren’t certified aren’t authorized by Apple to be used with Apple devices.
  11. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    And neither does Tesla with the NACS. Tesla doesn’t control who can use this connector. It opened the specification up for anyone to use.
  12. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    You can’t be serious. No one is making anyone do anything. Dis you know that Lightning accessories must be certified by Apple? Have you heard of MFi? No one makes anyone use Apple iPhones, but if you do, you have to comply with Apple’s requirements to plug something into an Apple iPhone. You...

  14. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    The NACS connector isn’t the same thing as the access to the Tesla superchargers. Other DC charging networks can install NACS handles and use the NACS protocol (perhaps along with CCS1 handles and CCS protocol) since NACS is now open for anyone to use. So, NACS can be an open standard, and...
  15. GM adopts Tesla's NACS standard! Munro begs Rivian to switch

    So, are you saying that Rivian blocking other EV brands from its DC chargers means that CCS1 is not a standard and also that Rivian is acting anti-competitively?
