These charging locations use Tesla Wall Connectors for charging. Tesla confirmed with The Motley Fool that there are about 350 locations in North america and more than 800 worldwide.
Most of these locations have two Wall Connectors, says Tesla spokeswoman Alexis Georgeson. Wall Connectors are popping up at hotels, casinos, ski resorts, restaurants, shopping centers, airports,
and even mobile phone stores. In the U s.,Wall Connectors are showing up at well-known names like Costco, Hyatt, Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton, Best western, and Westin.
Tesla Destination Charging program has exploded out of nowhere with initial efforts in rolling out the program beginning early in second quarter 2014.
Wall Connectors give Tesla owners a charge rate of up to 58 miles per hour when paired with Dual Chargers,
Tesla owners without a second onboard charger can charge with a Wall Connector, too, but they shouldn expect to charge at a rate higher than 29 miles per hour.
or more long enough to get a meaningful charge from a Wall Connector. Like Tesla Supercharger network, these Wall Connectors are free for Tesla owners.
Compelling economics The economics for all parties involved are compelling. The cost of the Wall Connector is minimal;
the company sells the contraption on its website for $650. And the installation of a 240-volt circuit isn expensive probably no more than $3, 000 and as little as $500.
offering free Wall Connector charging is a low-cost way to provide greater customer convenience while also potentially serving as a marketing tool.
when not having Wall Connectors could become a slight disadvantage for hotels and restaurants. While Tesla investors shouldn count on such an optimistic scenario,
