Lightning specific 80AMP Continuous TeslaTap adapter 15% off coupon (Limited time)

[cwstnsko]

As I type this, I’m charging at 17kW on a Tesla destination charger using my TeslaTap Lightning. I Love the adapter, I wish the discount had been setup back before I bought mine. It’s the only adapter I feel safe using with an ER Lightning, when charging on a Tesla destination charger at a hotel.

I didn’t realize Tesla made any 80A Destination chargers. Gen 1 wall connectors were capable of 80A.

Gen 2 wall connectors are also capable of 80A and there are still some around listed as Destination chargers. I probably hit one or two a year.

I'm a little surprised by this latest bit from TeslaTap as nowhere can I find was it advertised that the 80A TT Mini I bought is actually rated for only 64A charging. Not in anything available to me pre purchase, not in any materials supplied with the product. How does this new 80A-charging-adapter-that-is-actually-rated-for-80A-charging differ in materials or construction, I wonder? Given the price I'm not super eager to cut one of each open and check...

It’s not the adapter, it’s the communication. Even if you stole Teslas magic dock, your truck won’t be able to authenticate with the network, at least not until Tesla expands more.

Thanks for clarifying. Much appreciated.

This exactly. I have Gen2s that loadshare 80A and a a 48A Lectron adapter. I have been using it with my Pro and my R1T flawlessly. But when I got my Lariat ER I forgot it pulled 80A, saved $150 on the adapter but nearly fried my truck. Luckily the Gen2 has a heat sensor and shut itself off….went and ordered this.
