A friendly 10 A outlet, near Mission Beach

NSW → QLD Road Trip 2022–23

Staying at a BnB tonight, near Mission Beach, QLD. I tried to book one listed in PlugShare with a 7kW EV charger, but I chose the wrong one in Airbnb. Fortunately the host very kindly allowed us to plug into the normal 10A power outlet in the garage. It’s only 2kW, but it will get us mostly charged up by morning. Unfortunately, I made a bit of a mess when trying to do a three point turn at the top of the sloped loose gravel driveway, to reverse into the garage. Rear wheel drive is great for going forward up a hill, but not so good for reversing up a loose surface slope.

  1. It seems that because one wheel lost traction in the loose gravel, the other wheel (which I think had traction) was not allowed to spin. Is there a setting in the Tesla to use the wheel that has traction?
