Thanks for sharing this! I also came on to share what I had done cutting up the body panels and putting them on. I have not done the center long piece yet. Any tips/lessons about assembling that?
If the people from electruck happen to be reading this, I would almost suggest that they include a...
It is essentially a sub panel. Load centers, however, may have simpler installation and code requirements, than full sub panels, and typically don’t have a main breaker for all the loads.

Only the lives and ground are needed for the chargers, no neutral. I still used 3/4 EMT conduit as it is the standard for all our outdoor stuff.
You are correct they use WiFi to communicate loads but it has failsafes if there isn’t active communication, so as never to exceed total current. I...
To pass code (and what I did) you can have one 60A feeder from the panel into a load center with two 60A breakers.
each beaker then has a 60A feed into the wall connector.
this saves all the 60 amp wiring from the panel, and having to have 60 A of extra current budget in your panel.
When in...
I’ve done this trip so many times, even in cold snaps, but in a Tesla where driving an EV is a non-issue… and its heartbraking to do it in a Rivian and feel like it’s 2016 or worse. A few Tesla Universal superchargers along the way would just take away this whole ordeal.
I’m doing Seattle-Sun...
I’ve gone couple of times with Quad/ 20 AT, but have kids so a peeing stop along the way is a nice opportunity to recharge a bit.
I got the 20’wheels - for winter/snow driving, I expect the snow tires to actually have higher efficiency.
@Cascadian supposedly no, but it’s super volatile depending on the level of lack of understanding of the people at the parking valet and the ones doing the help desk of the parking fence
Whistler charging infra sucks I agree. I do want to add tho it has a free access 72kw 150kw supercharger and 15+ destination chargers in the fairmont. I use our lectron adapters there.
(Free-ish, sometimes their ticketing system breaks and you need to pay cad 10)
The convention center CCS...
Is there a way to get a more rubbery coating/surface on the adventure mat? Even wondering if one could reuse the oem one or if there is a sticker / vinyl to make it less slippy.
Very very few Tesla owners who also own a place with a garage / car port where they can pay for their own charger installation (target audience for this) , charge exclusively at superchargers.
Those who mostly charge at superchargers are mostly urban renters and folks who happen to have it...
It’s a fantastic deal. Buy the charger, get the $300-$1999 install done and then upgrade the charger if/when it becomes a necessity. Installation costs for some runs of AWG 6 with conduit, sub panels and exterior connections etc easily run up $1000+. This holds more households from...
If I recall correctly the general pending updates list has a different latest version cache than going into the actual page of the app. all sorts of reasons for this (support rolling updates, spreading network traffic, etc) .
However when you go to the App Store “page” for an app it will...
Now don’t get all empirical on us. ?
The AdventureTech MagSafe tray uses a DC-to-USB-C dual board that supports up to 36W (2x18W) output.
...Is there a way to tell from the fuse box (or elsewhere) which circuits turn off when the car is closed and goes to sleep
Appreciate it!
Seems that they planned the 8 USB-Cs (counting the wireless as two) to draw a total of 120w max --e.g. all of them 15w at the same time. Has anyone measured the max wattage of the OEM wireless pad?
