I'm driving a Tesla. Sorry to jump on the Leaf forum. This would be a last ditch effort if I was stranded (unlikely) but possible. Yes we are only talking 12 amps. 15 amps if the outlets are 20 amp. I wouldn't even consider bypassing a GFI unless my only other option was to tow the car...
What I might do if I had to charge and there was not other option is try to bypass the GFCI. Of course if the panel breaker is GFCI then that won't work
I built this circuit. Using a Nema 6-50 outlet. It works perfectly unless I plug it into GFCI outlets. They trip as soon as the charging adaptor is plugged in. Is there a way around this?
I plan on taking a trip in a week. Most all hotel outdoor outlets are GFCI so I need it to work with...
