TESLA LECTRON EXTENSION CORD AND J1772 ADAPTER

EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive review of Lectron's 20-foot extension cord and J1772 to Tesla adapter, focusing on their utility for EV owners. The reviewer highlights the adapter's solid construction, comparing it favorably to the OEM version and noting its suitability for modern Teslas despite a lower amperage rating than older models. The extension cord is praised for its heavy-duty, weatherproof build and inclusion of a convenient semi-hard carrying case. Practical tests demonstrate the products' functionality with various charging setups, including mobile connectors and destination chargers, confirming compatibility and performance. A minor drawback identified is the non-functional button on the extension cord's handle, requiring users to manage charging via the car's app or screen. Despite a perceived high initial price, the reviewer concludes that the extension cord offers significant flexibility for travelers, those facing 'ICE-ing' situations, or charging outside a garage, making it a useful accessory for Tesla owners.
