How to Use the Lectron Tesla Extension Cord

The Lectron Tesla Extension Cord is a convenient tool that lets Tesla owners charge their EVs without being limited to the distance set by their Tesla charging cable.

You can now add an extra 20 feet between the charger and your Tesla, making it easier than ever to charge your EV, wherever you are.

In this post, we provide a step-by-step guide on how to properly use the Lectron Tesla Extension Cord to ensure that you’re getting the most out of your Tesla charger.

Step 1: Check Compatibility

Before using the extension cord, it is important to check that it’s compatible with the Tesla charger. The extension cord only works with Tesla High Powered Wall Connectors, all generations of Destination Chargers, and Mobile Connectors. It is not compatible with the Tesla Supercharger.

It is also important to check your vehicle's charging requirements and to ensure the extension cord can deliver the necessary voltage and amperage.

Note: The button on the plug end of the extension cord is not designed to open your car’s charging port.

Step 4: Monitor the Charging Process

While your Tesla vehicle is charging, it is important to monitor the charging process to ensure that everything is working properly. Check your dashboard to see if your car is receiving the maximum output from your charger.

Step 5: Disconnect

Once your Tesla is fully-charged, press “Stop Charging” on the dashboard.

Then, tap “Unlock Charge Port.

Release the plug from the charging port.

Press the red button on the extension cord to separate it from the charger.
