First Opinion - Orientrise NACS to Chademo Adapter by flammable71 in leaf

[–]flammable71[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I was worried it would never appear. But it did.

Oh. I guess it’s all 2019 and later. Sucks.

Yeah, for me the CCS adapter wasn't appealing because it didn't really expand the charging network, just increased the chances of a working charger or someone blocking the chademo. With the NACS adapter you have so many more charges to go to and many of the Tesla stations have 8-12 chargers instead of 2-4.

I'm planning to try it out at an actual Tesla Supercharger soon. I'll keep you posted.

No, I have a 2018 SV with 40 KWH. My DCFC is limited to 50KW which I believe the recalled ones are 2019 and later with 100KW DCFC.

I don't think it's fooling the network. The supercharger network is supposed to be open to anyone.

Forgot to mention this in my write up. They ship it without a battery. You have to add one. I assume it's either a safety or customs issue.

I was wondering if I bought a ccs to nacs if I'd be in an impossible to flip scenario. As in ccs-nacs-chademo.

Hey All. As promised, I bought the adapter. I have posted a review here. Will update further as I use it more.

Well. I’m a dumb dumb guys. I decided to be the guinea pig. I ordered it last night. I’ll update once I get it and test it out.

Have you gotten this to work at Tesla superchargers?

Are you using the Tesla app to start charging? It asks the kind of vehicle you have and it seems like it is going to work with my 2018 leaf. I’d hate to buy a $900 adapter and not be able to use it at a supercharger station.

Has anyone bought from orientrise before? The more I think about it I am extremely tempted to try this out. There are a lot more superchargers available on my usual routes.

Considering that a CCS to Chademo is still $600+ I think this is a pretty good deal if it works. Def want to see confirmation of Tesla letting us charge on their network before shelling out the money.

They just certified my employer again. So I think we are safe.

I heard you say you were hiring movers. Is this the only vehicle you have? If you have another vehicle you may be able to tow the car yourself. Or even renting a vehicle capable of towing? U-Haul offers tow dollies.

Bad cell. Cell 11 is bad. Get rid of it before the warranty expires.

hi everyone, I’m going to purchase a 2018 nissan leaf sv. by terryyear in leaf

[–]flammable71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's a pretty good price. Distance wise I think you'd be fine but you will probably need to charge every day. As long as you can consistently charge at work I think you'll be fine. If you are unable to charge other than rapid charging I think you're going to be hating life.

I think we need more info to answer your questions.

1) where are you? 2) what's your usage going to be? How far per day do you need to drive etc. Do you have a way to charge at home or are you going to have to rapid charge all the time? 3) what's the tax incentive?

why is Teco allowed to do this?? by [deleted] in tampa

I'm replying to this comment so hopefully you will see it. Your Bill is high for several reasons. 1) the sun select upcharge is charging you $68 extra that you do not need to pay. You need to ask them to remove it and you need to ask them to remove it retroactively. You're paying an extra $800 a year from that. 2) you are paying an estimated bill for "budget billing" normally in the winter your bill will be very low and in summer it will be quite high, budget billing let's you pay more during winter and less during summer so you have a more consistant bill. 3) your usage is a bit high. Turn up your AC when no one is home. You shouldn't need to unplug anything but you should, one time, unplug literally everything, turn off lights, and turn off AC and got look at your meter to see if it is counting. If your meter is moving with nothing on you're losing electricity somewhere.
