Ishaja ye-EV engcono kakhulu ye-Teslas: Isixhumi Sodonga se-Tesla

Ishaja ye-EV engcono kakhulu ye-Teslas: Isixhumi Sodonga se-Tesla

Uma ushayela iTesla, noma uhlela ukuyithola, kufanele uthole iTesla Wall Connector ukuze uyishaje ekhaya. Ishaja ama-EV (iTesla nezinye) ngokushesha kancane kunokukhetha kwethu okuphezulu, futhi kulokhu i-Wall Connector ibiza u-$60 ngaphansi. Incane futhi ithambile, inesisindo esilingana nengxenye yokukhetha kwethu okuphezulu, futhi inentambo ende, encane. Iphinde ibe nesinye sezibambi zezintambo ezinhle kakhulu kunoma iyiphi imodeli echibini lethu lokuhlola. Ayishintshi njengeGrizzl-E Classic, futhi ayinazo izinketho zokufaka i-plug-in. Kodwa uma ingadingi i-adaptha yomuntu wesithathu ukuze ishaje ama-EV angewona amaTesla, kungenzeka ukuthi salinga ukuyenza ibe ukukhetha kwethu okuphezulu.

Ngokuvumelana nesilinganiso sayo se-amperage, i-Wall Connector inikeze u-48 A lapho siyisebenzisa ukushaja i-Tesla yethu yokuqasha, futhi yafinyelela ku-49 A lapho ishaja i-Volkswagen. Yakhuphula ibhethri le-Tesla lisuka ekushajeni okungu-65% laya ku-75% ngemizuzu engama-30 kuphela, kanye ne-Volkswagen ngemizuzu engama-45. Lokhu kusho ukushaja okugcwele cishe emahoreni ama-5 (e-Tesla) noma emahoreni angu-7.5 (e-Volkswagen).

Njenge-E Classic, i-Wall Connector ibhaliswe ku-UL, okubonisa ukuthi ihlangabezana nezindinganiso zokuphepha kanye nokuthobela imithetho kazwelonke. Iphinde isekelwe yiwaranti yeminyaka emibili ye-Tesla; lokhu kufushane ngonyaka kunewaranti ye-United Chargers, kodwa kufanele ikunike isikhathi esanele sokuqinisekisa ukuthi ishaja iyahlangabezana nezidingo zakho, noma ukuthi kufanele ilungiswe noma ishintshwe.

Ngokungafani ne-E Charger, enikeza izinketho eziningana zokufaka, i-Wall Connector kumele ifakwe izintambo (ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ifakwe ngokuphephile nangokuhambisana namakhodi kagesi, sincoma ukuqasha uchwepheshe kagesi oqinisekisiwe ukwenza lokhu). I-Hardwiring mhlawumbe iyindlela engcono kakhulu yokufaka, noma kunjalo, ngakho-ke kulula ukuyigwinya. Uma ukhetha inketho ye-plug-in, noma ungenalo ikhono lokufaka unomphela ishaja lapho uhlala khona, i-Tesla iphinde yenze i-Mobile Connector enama-plug amabili angashintshaniswayo: Enye ingena ku-outlet ejwayelekile ye-120 V yokushaja okune-trickle, kanti enye ingena ku-outlet engu-240 V yokushaja okusheshayo kufika ku-32 A.

Ngaphandle kweTesla Mobile Connector, i-Wall Connector iyimodeli elula kunazo zonke echibini lethu lokuhlola, inesisindo esingamakhilogremu angu-10 kuphela (cishe njengesihlalo esigoqwayo sensimbi). Inesimo esihle, esihlelekile kanye nephrofayili encane kakhulu—elinganisa amasentimitha angu-4.3 ukujula—ngakho noma igaraji lakho lincane, kulula ukulidlula. Intambo yalo engamafidi angu-24 ilingana neyokukhetha kwethu okuphezulu ngobude, kodwa incane kakhulu, ilinganisa amasentimitha angu-2 ukuzungeza.

Esikhundleni sesibambi sentambo esifakwa odongeni (njengalezo eziningi zamamodeli esizihlolile), i-Wall Connector inesinqe esakhelwe ngaphakathi esikuvumela ukuthi ubophe intambo kalula emzimbeni wayo, kanye nendawo encane yokuphumula. Kuyisisombululo esihle nesisebenzayo sokuvimbela intambo yokushaja ukuthi ingabi yingozi yokukhubeka noma ukuyishiya isengozini yokugingqika.

Nakuba i-Wall Connector ingenaso isivalo sepulaki yerabha esivikelayo, futhi ingangeni ngokuphelele othulini nasemswakama njengoba kunjalo ngaleyo modeli, isengenye yamamodeli asesimweni esibi kakhulu esiwahlolile. Isilinganiso sayo se-IP55 sibonisa ukuthi ivikelwe kahle othulini, ukungcola, namafutha, kanye nokuchaphazeka kwamanzi. Futhi njengamashaja amaningi esiwahlolile, kufaka phakathi i-E Classic, i-Wall Connector ilinganiselwe ukusetshenziswa emazingeni okushisa aphakathi kuka--22° kuya ku-122° Fahrenheit.

Lapho ifika emnyango wethu, i-Wall Connector yayipakishwe ngokucophelela, kusele isikhala esincane sokuba ishaye ngaphakathi ebhokisini. Lokhu kunciphisa amathuba okuba ishaja ishaje noma iphuke endleleni, okudinga ukubuyiselwa noma ukushintshaniswa (okungaba yinkinga enkulu, kulezi zikhathi zokubambezeleka kokuthunyelwa isikhathi eside).

Indlela yokushaja izimoto eziningi zikagesi ngeshaja yeTesla (kanye nokuphambene nalokho)

Njengoba nje ungeke ushaje i-iPhone ngekhebula le-USB-C noma ifoni ye-Android ngekhebula le-Lightning, akuwona wonke ama-EV angashajwa yishaja ngayinye ye-EV. Ezimweni ezingavamile, uma ishaja ofuna ukuyisebenzisa ingahambisani ne-EV yakho, ulahlekelwe yinhlanhla: Isibonelo, uma ushayela i-Chevy Bolt, futhi okuwukuphela kwesiteshi sokushaja endleleni yakho yi-Tesla Supercharger, ayikho i-adaptha emhlabeni ezokuvumela ukuyisebenzisa. Kodwa ezimweni eziningi, kukhona i-adaptha engasiza (uma nje unayo efanele, futhi ukhumbula ukuyipakisha).

I-Tesla to J1772 Charging Adapter (48 A) ivumela abashayeli be-Tesla EV abangebona abe-Tesla ukuthi basheshe basebenzise amashaja amaningi e-Tesla, okuwusizo uma ibhethri lakho le-Tesla EV elingebona abe-Tesla liphelelwa yisikhathi futhi isiteshi sokushaja se-Tesla siyindlela eseduze kakhulu, noma uma uchitha isikhathi esiningi ekhaya lomnikazi we-Tesla futhi ufuna inketho yokugcwalisa ibhethri lakho ngeshaja yakhe. Le adaptha incane futhi incane, futhi ekuhlolweni kwethu isekele isivinini sokushaja esifika ku-49 A, idlula kancane isilinganiso sayo esingu-48 A. Inesilinganiso sokumelana nesimo sezulu se-IP54, okusho ukuthi ivikelwe kakhulu othulini olusemoyeni futhi ivikelwe ngokulinganisela ekuchithekeni noma emanzini awelayo. Uma uyixhuma ku-plug yokushaja ye-Tesla, yenza ukuchofoza okwanelisayo lapho ingena endaweni yayo, futhi ukucindezela inkinobho kuyikhipha ku-plug ngemuva kokushaja. Iphinde ibhaliswe ku-UL futhi inewaranti yonyaka owodwa. I-adaptha ye-Tesla ye-J1772-to-Tesla ilinganiswe ukusekela amandla kagesi afinyelela ku-80 A, futhi ifakiwe mahhala ngokuthenga noma iyiphi imoto ye-Tesla.
