Which chargers can we use?

[Coffinhunter]

I know Electrify America. I was previously able to use Tesla chargers as I had an adapter for my Ford Lightning. Can I still use that adapter and charge at Tesla? Can I use the Mercedes charger? Just trying to figure out traveling.

I assume you are referring to DC chargers. You cannot use a regular Tesla charger with your adapter at this time. Supposedly you will be able to do this sometime later this year. You can use Tesla Magic Docks.

You can charge everywhere but at a Tesla charger. Hope later this year we can.
Otherwise: EVgo, Mercedes, Circle K, Pilot, Chevy Dealer, Ford Dealer, etc.
Apps like Plug Share is your friend. If not sure, post a station and we can let you know.

As dgkhn said, you can use any Tesla Superchargers that are equipped with a Magic Dock, which allows charging CCS vehicles without an adapter or software enablement.

Is the 30-minute free charging only available at Electrify America chargers and Porsche dealerships?

EA - most porsche dealerships don't let you use their charges…they are for service vehicles and generally very very busy.

I have used the dealer's chargers more than once. Before I had my home charger I needed to charge on a long drive and found the local dealer In the area. No issue and half an hour later I was off.

great - but this is not universally true - zero bay area Porsche dealers will let you use their fast chargers - so best to call /verify before you plan on showing up and using their fast chargers…
