The Hong Kong Tesla Model S has 3-phase capability. Don't know about Mainland China Model S. Hong Kong is RHD (right hand drive); and Mainland is LHD (Left hand drive). Therefore, the model Ss in Hong Kong and Mainland will have at least that much different. Tesla will ship with a single...

What would it take to make an OpenEVSE that takes 3-phase charging? It's to be used in Hong Kong on a Model S.

Thanks for the offer. I like your plug a lot. I need 80 Amp charging so I also need a plug that won't melt when charging at 80Amp.

Any one has a link to where I can get a 75Amp J1772 (handle+cable) assembly? Avnet Express said "no stock" :-(

You may use your regular 240V 13amp outlet in your garage. No need to install charging station in your garage. There is an incentive for EV purchase in Hong Kong. There is no FRT (First Registration Tax). The incentive is valid until March 31, 2014. I was talking to EPD (Environmental...

pizzahut99: The last couple of months (I was here since August) was really really hot. Did you have any capacity bar lost? What is the highest # of temperature bar?

pizzahut99: I am currently in Hong Kong, and would like to get a LEAF. I live in Hong Lok Yuen in Tai Po (western style house with 2 car garage, front/back/side yards). I already have 240V outlets in the garage. How much does a LEAF cost in Hong Kong? I presume you didn't have to pay FRT...

I am a little confuse. NEMA 14-30 requires a 40Amp breaker. Doesn't a NEMA 14-30 plug allow 80% of 40 Amp (i.e. 32Amp max)?

The company is called EMW. They are in Palo Alto. Their business model was/is converting a ICE version of BMW to Electric version of BMW.

Does this new toy supports both 30Amp and 75Amp Open EVSE?

I am very sorry to hear all the troubles that some of Rav4ians have experienced. I have to say, I am fortunate that both of my Rav4EVs and Model S work great and did not see any of the problem some of you are having. As of this week, my Model S is close to 9000 miles, one of the Rav is 8000+...

I am curious.. if the Washington Rav4EV owner doesn't live in California, how did he get the California tax incentive?

Tony, my apology. I didn't read your email in its entirety. I will have to email Phil and ask him to post it here of the method of connecting the pins. By the way, Phil also fixed the poorly made Tesla brand 14-50 adapter so it won't melt (I have just proved his fix after charging 4 hours...

I wanted the ITT handle but at the time when I was ready to hand over my stuffs to Phil, I could not find it online :-(. Therefore, I end up getting the tusconev "Chinese" J-plug. Phil commented although it is rated 70 Amp, he doesn't think he'd trust that handle for much over 40A...

UMC is now talking to my Rav @40AmpX240V
