Tesla Launches New Home Charger That Can Charge Any Electric Vehicle

Tesla launched a new level 2 home charger today called the Tesla Universal Wall Connector and it can do something that no other charger can - it can charge any electric vehicle sold in North America without the need of an extra adapter. 

That's because The Universal Wall Connector uses an AC version of its Supercharger Magic Dock to allow the charger to release a built-in J1772 adapter when the user needs it. That will charge vehicles that use the new North American Charging Standard, or NACS, as well as those that have an EV with a J1772 inlet, which has been the standard in North America since 2011.
