It will most likely have a better build quality with better OTA support than the Ford one. But this is based off my experience with a Gen 2 that doesn’t have OTA updates. Hasn’t failed me in over 4 years. What I don’t know about this Tesla one is whether the app will be able to control charge capabilities and possibly show Charge Rate.If I haven’t opened the box on the Charge Station Pro, but intend to install something before winter, what would the advantage be of this new Tesla setup over the CSP ?
The biggest difference, and reason I wouldn't (since you have an ER which can handle up to 80a), is that the FCSP can charge up to 80a and provide power back to your house from the battery if needed (optional, expensive install). This new Tesla charger is limited to 48a and can't provide the backup ability.If I haven’t opened the box on the Charge Station Pro, but intend to install something before winter, what would the advantage be of this new Tesla setup over the CSP ?
Since you have a gen 2 tesla charger, do you have it configured for 80A? I have a gen2 sitting in a box and I've been too lazy/cheap to set it up and buy the 80A teslatapIt will most likely have a better build quality with better OTA support than the Ford one.

Tell us more about that cabinet! It is beautiful!Just installed the Tesla J1772 wall connector charger. It’s getting the full 48amps and updated to 22.7 software. Now hopefully will get my truck soon to actually be able to use it.![]()
I got it off Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PD9N6KR?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_RGX2JZBEP5M3SR851CXN)Tell us more about that cabinet! It is beautiful!
Do you know if it has any smart features? Can you control charging from the Tesla app? My understanding is that Tesla briefly released a J1772 charger last year but it was a "dumb" charger.Just installed the Tesla J1772 wall connector charger.
