I've been to many Tesla chargers where there were no spots available,.. or there was only a spot or 2 open but I couldn't charge because I couldn't double park. I had to wait until spots opened up to where I could either double park, or get the far right spot.

I just ordered the 5 footer because I don’t want to go through that anymore. If the is only 1 spot open, I want to be able to pull right in and charge... not look for 2 spaces. :cool:
Were you able to get my discount code to work or did you have to use a different one?

Hmm... i didn't remember that video showing a discount code, but I did get 125 bucks off using the code in the video that I posted.

apparently the hansshow cable is not UL certified. The company claims all its components are UL certified, and that it is designed to UL standards....


A2Z says they are in the process of actually getting UL certification for their cable and they won't sell a cable until it has the certification.

Interesting result. I wonder why the pre-production version was fine and the production version failed...

Looks like a nice product and very expensive. I still believe this is a solution waiting for a problem to solve. I have been driving EV cars and trucks for 4 years never had the occasion to not charge because e of the length of the Tesla cables... maybe I have been lucky..

Makes me wonder if the sensor or board went bad. I’ve used mine 3 times so far haven’t had any failures but also never pulled as much as the Rivian does. Seems like something fried in that cable though.
