I was just watching a video about the Model-S (sorry I don't have the link handy) and it showed the charge plug and it is different from J1772. Tesla was talking about building their own network.
I understand that they wanted to have a quick charger that was faster than Chademo for their very large battery packs. But I'm baffled as to why they would give up compatibility with the hordes of J1772 public chargers that are going up all over the country. Do they feel that their battery pack is so large that they will never need to take advantage of a public L2 charger?
