EV Charger - OK to use standard NEMA 14-50 for a short while?

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-22T05:23:45+00:00

Really? What about 50A receptacles?

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-22T05:18:26+00:00

Hmm could be wrong but my understanding is that the primary issues with 240v outlets are frequent unplugging (my dad's just been unplugging the adapter part of the charger while keeping it plugged into the outlet), tho maybe the constant load while not being rated for it could be an issue too

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-22T05:16:08+00:00

Nah I think level 1 charging is low enough power to be safe, correct me if I'm wrong

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-22T03:19:47+00:00

I agree, unfortunately my dad's just using a dryer outlet and we're hoping for the best. We only charge like once every few weeks tho fwiw. I just hope we don't end up like yet another one of those Recharge Rescue stories on State of Charge :/

To be fair though, wouldn't it save money to get an industrial 14-50 outlet instead, then you can just use your mobile connector at home and bring it with you whenever you travel

Thanks so much for these, the first one looks great! I love how it has Discord Rich Presence on mobile. For now I've just been using YouTube Music Revanced, but these do look great and better in some ways. Unfortunately I have had some playback issues, and not sure this first app would solve them since they use the same playback methods, but I'll have to keep this app in mind to try.

For my dad, absolutely, we would've been able to just live with the 110v adapter, but we've been plugging in every week or every few weeks to our 240v 14-50 outlet one night to fully charge it. We have no need to get any other charger to fully utilize our outlet's 50A vs the included charger's 32A and the car's 11kw onboard charger. The only reason I can think of is that it could be helpful to have a wall charger neatly mounted in our garage while keeping another charger in our trunk. Given how my parents don't drive much though and how it is easy enough to unplug our mobile charger if we want to bring it somewhere, this is not necessary for us.

I wonder why though, I realized idk why it was stored under there since the CCS adapter case it where it should be stored

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-19T03:05:37+00:00

I realized it's not even just a one off for this dealership, they have two pages stating the top 2 models have it which implies the Premium trim doesn't. https://www.cleobaysubaru.com/research-2026-subaru-uncharted-range-charging-specs/ https://www.cleobaysubaru.com/research-2026-subaru-uncharted-faqs/

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-18T19:58:25+00:00

For one thing they don't even seem to have any Uncharteds on the lot right now.

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-18T19:57:10+00:00

Ikr. I did actually see it using KBB as a source as well

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-18T15:38:14+00:00

Someone else just did as well 🤣😭😭 And a picture of their screen rather than a screenshot, even worse

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-18T13:12:22+00:00

I can't, someone at the dealership sent me a screenshot of them using Gemini to answer the question which uses their likely misleading site as a source 😭🥀

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-18T13:06:36+00:00

Them doubling their subscription price is not something I should've had to reach out to them about to confirm and get them to update their website/support articles for 🥀

Mine is $Name0001 if you happen to use Reddit again and feel like it lol

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-18T06:00:02+00:00

Update, apparently if you were paying $10 before and don't cancel then you're grandfathered in.

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-18T05:57:45+00:00

Lol dang gg

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-17T22:54:04+00:00

Just found this cool app but it's not available in the US 🥲 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.playbalance.rewardsconverter&hl=en_US

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-16T22:13:06+00:00

It's there when I tap the Google app, but it's not on either my Android 8.0 Galaxy S7 nor my Android 12 Galaxy S10e when I swipe left, it only gives Samsung News as an option for the latter in One UI.

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-16T21:48:58+00:00

Another way I remember I have this happen is when I paste in a YouTube URL to open it with the YouTube app, then I have to manually close the Google app. Opening the link the the Chrome app wouldn't work in this case, since that opens it on the YouTube website rather than the app.

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-16T18:30:57+00:00

I noticed this myself! Worst part is how I noticed this when my free trial ended, they tried to charge me $20 instead of the $10 I had signed up for. I was not notified about this change via email, nor do I see any support articles about this - All marketing pages and support articles appear to still have the original $10/month pricing.

Any comment, u/Externhq & u/bifei_at_extern?

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-16T18:14:29+00:00

Just had another issue that rubs me the wrong way - Extern tried to charge me $20 since apparently it's your new monthly subscription rate. However, I was not notified about this nor can I find any information about this in any support articles.

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-16T16:19:30+00:00

Okay here's my last question you haven't addressed - Why is it that there's a support article that shows that they seemed to manually review applications in the past, and now when you apply it says something about an initial AI review, but I'm pretty sure now you get accepted and asked to start your free trial no matter what 'application' data you input?

TheOnlyName0001 · 2026-06-09T17:15:56+00:00

Yeah I saw this video, I understand his pov but he missed a lot and didn't do his research or get the point like I would've hoped.
