Hello! We have a new Grizzl-e 40a regular (not smart) charger that works fine for charging out 2021 rav 4 hybrid, but is not working on the 2013 Model S we are currently borrowing.

The Model S charges fine on a 120v outlet using the same adapter, and charges fine at my office with a juice box.

When we plug the grizzl-e in the light stays blue and says check charger power.

Grizzle says it’s Tesla’s problem and Tesla says it’s Grizzl-e’s, so hoping we can figure it out on our own!

Thank you!

    My guess, and I emphasize guess, is that the 2013 Model S uses an older handshake protocol variant that while perfectly valid is not properly supported by the Grizzl-e.
