View DetailsCharging times may be slower than at Superchargers, but you still need to precondition for optimal charging speeds and performance. Tesla recommends preconditioning your battery for 30-45 minutes no matter what type of charger you use. Precondition by:
Battery preconditioning on Tesla is like your car's way of getting dressed appropriately for the occasion. It is an embedded feature in most recent Tesla cars. Tesla battery preconditioning is very useful during extreme weather conditions. You can also do it before supercharging your car to reduce charging time and ensure a fuller battery.
Preconditioning the battery prior to Supercharging (raises the battery to a much higher temperature) happens automatically provided you enter the Supercharger location as the next waypoint or destination in the Tesla Navigation system. This ensures the quickest and most efficient charging session when Supercharging. Click to expand...
