Prior to this, the mobile charging connector is accompanied by the new car, this connection line allows the owner to charge the electric vehicle from the ordinary socket at home, its disadvantage is that the power is not high, the frequency of use is small, but its advantage is that the mobile charging connector can allow users to use the socket around them to charge the Tesla electric car, which is very necessary for emergency.
