I bought a cheapo one as a spare from amazon for 25 bucks, works just like the original so why not
Why not buy a Tesla one for the same price: [SAE J1772 Charging Adapter | Tesla Shop](https://shop.tesla.com/product/sae-j1772-charging-adapter)
Get an original adapter, even a used one is better
Yeah certain things don’t cheap out on. Just my 2 cents.
Technically $1 cheaper.. also, I could have sworn these used to be $25. Also, the Schumacher website saids that adapter is rated for 60a. Tesla's is rated for 80a.
Yeah don’t go cheap on adapters. You either get a Tesla made one or go with a brand like A2Zev or lectron
Just get a cheap one. It's not going on the space shuttle
The fact that Tesla owners in the comments are haggling over a $50 adapter only solidifies my belief that the majority of owners are reaching well beyond their means to buy these cars...
Or that’s the first thing that popped up when I google “Tesla charger adapter “ thus why I asked the group if it is a good one 🤷🏾♂️
Get the Tesla one and call it a day
Here winter tires are mandatory during winter. You'd be surprised how many car owners, not just Tesla, buy a 60-70k car and then first winter come, they look for the least expensive winter tires and then complain that the car can't handle any snow. Tires are probably the most important component in your safety, but they will go on marketplace buy a used cheap chinese tire with 5/32 thread left.
What, tangible difference is there?
Like $20 on Amazon
Couldn't I ask you the same thing...? I prefer to get the adapter designed by the company who made the car. Call it peace of mind I guess.
Get something similar to this: [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DQVJ5GY2?ref\_=ppx\_hzsearch\_conn\_dt\_b\_fed\_asin\_title\_5](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DQVJ5GY2?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_5) I know it's discontinued but the reason is you can do Level 1-3. The adapter you're looking at only supports Level 1-2.
FYI the 15$ amazon works normal
I know, right? Think about all the angst on reddit recently re: if people should pay $8k for lifetime FSD or not. Crazy.
One dollar more for an official part. Obviously you need to go with the official part.
It's one dollar less for the official part, which does 80a instead of the Schumacher's 60a.
You don’t buy a cheep adapter. This is an electrical connector pumping out 48 amps. Buy Tesla, A2Z, Teslatap Mini etc. These are quality electrical devices.
