The Tesla Mobile Connector is a portable charger that comes with your vehicle. It’s great for emergencies or occasional use, but it’s much slower than the Wall Connector, taking up to 20 hours for a full charge using a standard outlet.

3. Tesla Supercharger (For Public Use)

While Tesla Superchargers are commonly used in public locations, they are not typically installed in homes due to their high power requirements and cost. However, for Tesla owners who live near a Supercharger station, they provide the fastest charging solution—up to 80% charge in 30 minutes. Infact we have a full blog dedicated to just this subject.
