Newbie Dave again, trying to get my wifey’s “new” 2016 set up.
The car came with the standard cable, model number 29690 3NF2E with regular 120v input.
On EBay I bought her what I thought was the same model (from a fellow in GeorgiaJ to keep in her trunk to use at her workplace, a residence with an outdoor 120v outlet next to where she parks. What I received, though, was model number 29290 3NF0E with a larger input plug that looks like the one a dryer might use, plus a short adapter cable to standard 120v. There is what looks like a factory sticker that says:
Input Voltage (Unit Automatically Adjusts)
100-140V - 16A (typically 12A / 1.44kW)
200-250V - 24A (typically 20A / 4.80kW)
AC only 50/60HZ - Use on dedicated circuit
Warranty void if unit tampered with or abused
So my question is, can I plug this “new” charger into my dryer circuit and get faster charging? Is this “Level 2” charging? Or is this charger an international model for use outside the USA?
