Itshaja ye-EV engcono kakhulu yeTeslas: Isixhumi sodonga seTesla

Ukuba uqhuba iTesla, okanye uceba ukuyifumana, kuya kufuneka ufumane iTesla Wall Connector ukuze uyitshaje ekhaya. Itshaja ii-EV (iTesla nezinye) ngokukhawuleza kancinci kuneemoto zethu eziphambili, kwaye ngoku sibhala oku, iWall Connector ixabisa i-$60 ngaphantsi. Incinci kwaye ithambile, inobunzima obuphakathi kwesiqingatha semoto yethu ephezulu, kwaye inentambo ende, encinci. Ikwanayo nenye yezona zibamba iintambo ezintle kakhulu kuyo nayiphi na imodeli kwidama lethu lokuvavanya. Ayitshintshi njengeGrizzl-E Classic, kwaye ayinazo iindlela zokufaka iplagi. Kodwa ukuba ayifuni iadaptha yomntu wesithathu ukuze itshaje iimoto zeTesla ezingezizo ezeTesla, kusenokwenzeka ukuba siye salingeka ukuba siyenze ibe yeyona ilungileyo.

Ihambelana nomgangatho wayo we-amperage, iWall Connector inikeze i-48 A xa siyisebenzisa ukutshaja iTesla yethu yokuqeshisa, kwaye ifikelele kwi-49 A xa itshaja iVolkswagen. Inyuse ibhetri yeTesla ukusuka kwi-65% yokutshaja ukuya kwi-75% kwimizuzu engama-30 kuphela, kwaye iVolkswagen kwimizuzu engama-45. Oku kuthetha ukutshaja ngokupheleleyo malunga neeyure ezi-5 (kwiTesla) okanye iiyure ezi-7.5 (kwiVolkswagen).

Njenge-E Classic, i-Wall Connector ikwi-UL, nto leyo ebonisa ukuba iyahlangabezana nemigangatho yokhuseleko lwesizwe kunye nokuthobela imithetho. Ikwaxhaswa yiwaranti yeminyaka emibini yeTesla; lo ngunyaka omfutshane kunewaranti ye-United Chargers, kodwa kufuneka ikunike ixesha elaneleyo lokuqinisekisa ukuba itshaja iyahlangabezana neemfuno zakho, okanye ukuba kufuneka ilungiswe okanye itshintshwe.

Ngokungafaniyo ne-E Charger, enika iindlela ezahlukeneyo zokufakela, i-Wall Connector kufuneka ifakwe kwi-hardwire (ukuqinisekisa ukuba ifakwe ngokukhuselekileyo nangokuhambelana neekhowudi zombane, sicebisa ukuba uqeshe ingcali yombane eqinisekisiweyo ukuba yenze oku). I-Hardwiring mhlawumbi yeyona ndlela ilungileyo yokufaka, nangona kunjalo, kulula ukuyiginya. Ukuba ukhetha i-plug-in, okanye awunayo amandla okufaka itshaja ngokusisigxina apho uhlala khona, iTesla ikwadala i-Mobile Connector eneziplagi ezimbini ezitshintshanayo: Enye ingena kwi-outlet eqhelekileyo ye-120 V yokutshaja ngokucothayo, kwaye enye ingena kwi-outlet ye-240 V yokutshaja ngokukhawuleza ukuya kuthi ga kwi-32 A.

Ngaphandle kweTesla Mobile Connector, iWall Connector yeyona modeli ilula kakhulu kwidama lethu lokuvavanya, inobunzima obuziikhilogram ezili-10 kuphela (malunga nesitulo esisongwayo sesinyithi). Inesimo esithambileyo, esilungelelanisiweyo kunye neprofayili encinci kakhulu—enobunzulu obuziisentimitha eziyi-4.3 kuphela—ngoko ke nokuba igaraji yakho ixinene, kulula ukuyidlula. Intambo yayo engama-24-foot ilingana neyeyona ikhethwayo yethu iphambili ngobude, kodwa incinci nangakumbi, inobunzima obuziisentimitha ezi-2 ukujikeleza.

Endaweni yesibambi sentambo esifakelwa eludongeni (njengezo uninzi lweemodeli esizivavanyeyo), iWall Connector inesigqubuthelo esakhelwe ngaphakathi esikuvumela ukuba ujikeleze intambo ngokulula emzimbeni wayo, kunye nendawo encinci yokuphumla. Sisisombululo esihle nesisebenzayo sokuthintela intambo yokutshaja ekubeni yingozi okanye ukuyishiya isengozini yokugilwa.

Nangona iWall Connector ingenaso isigqubuthelo seplagi yerabha esikhuselayo, kwaye ayithintelwanga ngokupheleleyo luthuli kunye nokufuma njengoko kunjalo ngaloo modeli, iseyenye yeemodeli eziguquguquka kakhulu esizivavanyeyo. Uvavanyo lwayo lwe-IP55 lubonisa ukuba ikhuselekile kakuhle eluthulini, ukungcola, kunye neeoyile, kunye nokutshiza kunye nokutshiza kwamanzi. Kwaye njengezinye iitshaja esizivavanyeyo, kuquka i-E Classic, iWall Connector ilinganiswe ukuba isetyenziswe kumaqondo obushushu aphakathi kwe--22° ukuya kwi-122° Fahrenheit.

Xa ifika emnyango wethu, iWall Connector yayipakishwe ngononophelo, kungekho ndawo ingako yokuba ikwazi ukungena ngaphakathi ebhokisini. Oku kunciphisa amathuba okuba itshaja itshajwe okanye iphuke endleleni, nto leyo enokubangela ukuba ibuyiselwe okanye itshintshwe (nto leyo, kula maxesha okulibaziseka kokuthunyelwa kwexesha elide, enokuba yingxaki enkulu).

Indlela yokutshaja uninzi lwezithuthi zombane ngetshaja yeTesla (kwaye ngokuchaseneyo)

Njengokuba ungenakutshaja i-iPhone ngentambo ye-USB-C okanye ifowuni ye-Android ngentambo ye-Lightning, ayizizo zonke ii-EV ezinokutshaja yitshaja nganye ye-EV. Kwiimeko ezingaqhelekanga, ukuba itshaja ofuna ukuyisebenzisa ayihambelani ne-EV yakho, awunathamsanqa: Umzekelo, ukuba uqhuba iChevy Bolt, kwaye isikhululo sokutshaja kuphela endleleni yakho yiTesla Supercharger, akukho adaptha ehlabathini eya kukuvumela ukuba uyisebenzise. Kodwa kwiimeko ezininzi, kukho iadaptha enokukunceda (ukuba nje unayo efanelekileyo, kwaye ukhumbule ukuyipakisha).

I-Tesla to J1772 Charging Adapter (48 A) ivumela abaqhubi be-Tesla EV abangengabo abeTesla ukuba basebenzise iitshaja zeTesla ezininzi, nto leyo eluncedo ukuba ibhetri yakho ye-Tesla EV engeyiyo eyeTesla iphelelwa ngamandla kwaye isikhululo sokutshaja seTesla sesona sikhetho sikufutshane, okanye ukuba uchitha ixesha elininzi kwikhaya lomnini weTesla kwaye ufuna ukhetho lokugcwalisa ibhetri yakho ngetshaja yakhe. Le adaptha incinci kwaye incinci, kwaye kuvavanyo lwethu ixhase ukuya kuthi ga kwisantya sokutshaja se-49 A, idlula kancinci umlinganiselo wayo we-48 A. Inereyithingi ye-IP54 yokumelana nemozulu, oko kuthetha ukuba ikhuselekile kakhulu eluthulini olusemoyeni kwaye ikhuselekile ngokuphakathi ekutshizeni okanye emanzini awe. Xa uyiqhagamshela kwiplagi yokutshaja yeTesla, yenza ukucofa okwanelisayo xa ingena endaweni yayo, kwaye ukucofa nje iqhosha kuyikhupha kwiplagi emva kokutshaja. Ikwafakwe kwi-UL kwaye inewaranti yonyaka omnye. I-adaptha yeTesla yeJ1772-to-Tesla ilinganiswe ukuba ixhase ukuya kuthi ga kwi-80 A yamandla ombane, kwaye ifakiwe simahla xa uthenga nayiphi na imoto yeTesla.
