Conversation Starter: The Charger Contagion - Are We Playing with Fire?
Hey Tesla community!

I recently came across a concerning article about the risks associated with using non-approved EV charging adapters, particularly for Tesla owners. It seems that the temptation to save a few bucks on a cheap adapter could lead to serious safety hazards, not just for our vehicles but for our personal safety as well.
This got me thinking: How do you feel about the current state of EV charging infrastructure? Are you comfortable using third-party adapters, or do you strictly stick to manufacturer-approved options? Have you ever had a close call or a bad experience with a non-Tesla charger?
Let’s discuss the balance between convenience and safety in our EV charging habits. What precautions do you take when charging your Tesla, especially on long road trips? And do you think the industry needs stricter regulations on charging equipment to prevent these risks?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences!
