I did and it was hard to watch. The CEO’s face said it all. He had definitely been beaten down by Tesla. This company has done a stellar job of customer service and communications. It was hard to see him looking so depressed over is apparently a minor failure to the standards.Did anyone actually watch the interview? There is ZERO reason to be concerned. Tesla got a stick up their butt and is forcing A2Z to "recall" a 100% safe adapter cuz it might fail in a hundred years when we can charge at a full 500A for one hour solid on on our EV's that have 2000kWh batteries. A2Z caved and is making the best of the situation by upgrading owners of the V1 adaptor to the Pro version. This makes Tesla happy and it makes their early adopter customers happy...win-win.
Unlike the recall for Lectron and the Tesla adapter, which had immediate risks that needed to be addressed, the A2Z V1 adapter has no immediate safety risk. Unless you are a power user and have cycled it 1000 times. The temperature claim is absurd, there are no EV's being produced that will draw 500A for an hour. In my mind, A2Z has cemented my loyalty with their response. Their communication is a step above anyone else.
Ford missed a golden opportunity to partner with them. I guess they like taking risks with companies that aren't as good. *cough*SUNRUN*cough*
I’m betting they do a better job of replacing their product than Ford/Tesla does getting theirs out and they have had several weeks head start.
