Ask him if it can tell the color of the cord too... SMH...

If you plug into an extension cord, the leaf charger will not know if the outlet you are using is getting overheated from the load and possibly poor connections. At least on my 2014 unit, it has warning indications that has happened and stopped charging. This is better than having the outlet heat up and catch fire. ( There are some pretty dismal 120 volt outlets out there. )allergyking said:One additional question / clarification, my salesman was adamant about not using an extension cord and said the Leaf would know if I did. Does that apply to L1 charging if I get a big enough gauge cord? If I can use an extension cord with L1, then I can plug into my house at front door and run 50ish foot drop cord to driveway and charge all night long???
Thanks!
