Only when going on out of town on long trips every few weeks. I charge to 100% the night before leaving the house. Then drive until lunch time and have a nice lunch while it charges to 100%. Then drive until diner time and charge to 100% at a supercharger or the hotel charger overnight.
On...
Been doing this since 2019 on the following vehicles with no problems and only about 2% loss of range.
2019 Model S Raven
2021 Model 3 Performance
2023 Model S Plaid
2024 FS Cyberbeast
2025 AWD Cybertruck
I still have the 2024 Model S Plaid & the 2025 AWD Cybertruck.
Mine was 3m taped to the casting between the 2 mounting screw posts on the passenger side of the frunk. However l, when I removed the trunk liner everything was wet and dirty. I had not counted on how open to the road and wet the inverter would get. So, I decided to add length to the 48V wires...
Red is positive
Brown is ground
Green is not used
Cables were long enough
Went with this plug instead of the original I listed, since it plugs directly in to the Victron Inverter,

I updated the install with a better outlet for the frunk. Cybertruck 48Volt wired to inverter inputs. The power outlet simply plugs into the 120Volt outlet on the inverter and drill a 1-3/4” hole in the frunk liner and insert the power outlet. Install complete.
15A Weatherproof Outdoor Power...
I also wanted my cooler in the frunk and it draws only 48W. I also wanted more versatility for other powered options in the future, so I went with this setup. 48 Volt to 120 Volt and used the Ford outlet that is rated for the max 400W on the auxiliary outlet in the frunk.
Victron Energy 500VA...
Automated Safety System for towing fifth wheel and goose neck trailers. This is what I plan on using with my Cybertruck.
