Are you buying Tesla Accessories?

[SentinelOne]

Is anyone buying the basic mud flaps from twrap? I feel like I want something to protect from stones, but have not really seen anything else out there?

Mud flaps

My current truck with 35" tires is blue, throws rocks at the qtr panels and chips paint......not possible with CT Stainless! It could cause some minor damage but think we'd hear more of it if that was the case. So for me, no mud flaps.

I have a bag that holds all my ratchet straps and hitchpins, etc. I currently have a Tacoma and a Ranger, and switch between them.

I was just making a list of accessories, to try to prioritize for my delivery in April.

• Tint
• Bed mat tractor supply https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/4-ft-x-6-ft-x-3-4-in-thick-rubber-stall-mat
• Wheel covers t sport line
• Apple car play
• Cell phone mount for Face ID
• Window shade. https://evannex.com/products/sunsha...lKhdZJPpCsjsHzHLrSas_WGSqU86fxjcaAhEzEALw_wcB
• Sleeping setup
• Everbrite coating
• CCS and breakaway adapter
• tire plug kit
• Air compressor
• Window insulation
• RV adapter set
• Chains
• Cargo bed divider
• Light bar
• Crossbars
• Vault cargo bins
• Road flares
• Radar detector

what else should I consider?

12v jumper battery and flashlight… if your 48v battery dies you can apparently jumper 12v to get doors and frunk open.

I don’t know how you got all those Tesla accessories but good for you.

For filling tires, the tire is the "tank" and a metal one just becomes superfluous and creates longer run times because the air in the tank ends up being unused. I'm looking for one without a tank. Also, ideally one without a separate charger.

All true, but I threw a husky 1 gallon 120vac compressor from my shop into the smuggler bin and have been impressed. Just what I had on hand. It has really good cfm (1.8? I dunno, works great) at 40psi and a 50% duty cycle is reasonable.

Did you ever find an AC inflator that wasn't weak or have better than a 5 min max run time? I hate those inflator things with rubber hoses, they're all made for inflating a single tiny spare before overheating the gaskets with no warning. The tiny little tank, while not it's purpose, does a good job of adding a thermal buffer.

I am looking at a VIAIR RV-40047 infator. Relatively small, 100% duty cycle, and can fill large tires relatively quickly. The challenge is that is it a 12V with clips

https://a.co/d/fTNyhHk

To address that, and provide me with more flexibility, I am adding an Anbull 120V to 12V power supply that has posts. This will give me and easy to use 12V power supply. I may mount this to an interior Molle panel on the driver side.

Yes, I did. And it's super-fast, too fast to justify unless you will be using it with a four-way inflator hose to inflate all tires simultaneously. And for that it works really well, 3 minutes to go from 50 psi to 65 psi, total time for all four Cybertruck OEM tires. Most small 12V tire inflators would take over half an hour to do this, many would overheat and shut-off. It's almost as fast as using a CO2 tank or SCUBA air tank, but you will never run out of air and it takes less space. It's very compact and has a permanent magnet two speed motor/controller. I just hope the motor controller is reliable over time.

Amazon.com: TC·BL Portable Air Compressor 110V,Ultra Quiet Air Compressor Oil Free and Lightweight Small Air Pump : Tools & Home Improvement

No batteries, 120V only. Comes with a standard air compressor male nipple for use with your air hose. Runs quiet and has a pleasant, solid sound and doesn't jump around. The pressure spread between motor on and cutoff is non-adjustable, the max pressure is adjustable only in increments of 5 lbs. That means this unit should be used with an air hose that has a built-in pressure gauge.

I haven't tried it filling one tire at a time, it may be too fast for it work properly/conveniently. What I mean by that, it may pump air so fast it builds too much pressure behind the valve in the tire stem and cycle on/off. I will test that next time I have it out. This compressor is sold without a tank for use as an inflator, or with a 5L or 10L tank for using to power finish nailers, spray painting, etc.

That inflator is definitely not 100% duty cycle! The manufacturer claims it is 33% duty cycle at 100 psi which means you would be lucky to get 50% duty cycle at 50 psi.

https://a.co/d/fG9A6xj

Just keep an eye on your power output vs load. 600W on that is pretty good! But a standard outlet is normally around 1700-2000W depending on setup. Good idea

I don't understand why you want to use a 12V compressor when it requires another power conversion step (and more equpment, fans and wiring). It seems overly complicated and inefficent when you could just use a 120V unit to begin with.

A compressor is a high-amperage device, running it on 12V is more challenging than a 120V compressor. You need heavier cables and better terminal connection due to the high amperage 12V requires.

So far just purchased additional Tesla L-track hook points for the vault and the L-track adapters/net for the frunk.

Might consider the under seat storage and vault divider way down the road.

 

[L3it3R]

I bought the "usual" ones, but based on their store's customer service I probably will never buy directly from Tesla for accessories ever again. YMMV, but they were HORRIBLE to work with when items simply didn't arrive, or arrived damaged.

 

[btcrealm]

I think it would be interesting to find out who is buying what accessories from Tesla and why or why not. I am buying the vault divider as it is better then the wood version I made and use in my current truck. What is the likelihood that some third party will come out with a cheaper/better one? Also, I am considering the rubber bumper guard, but is it better than vinyl wraps I see or should you do both? I will likely order additional L track hooks as well and the under back seat organizer. I have an organizer now in my Ram and keep all kinds of things there such as bungies, rachet straps, rags, tools, ect.

@BestEvMod(AOSK) has a under rear seat organizer I would probably buy before getting the Tesla one.
