This ridiculous misconception that cameras are a deterrent to crime needs to stop. If there’s no vehicle in sight for the camera to hopefully capture a license plate there’s little law enforcement can do. Most cameras don’t have facial recognition and even if they did, face coverings are very commonplace nowadays.1. All Tesla Supercharger should have dedicated cameras at each location.
Tesla should have done this from the start. These thefts and other incidents (icing and attacks on Tesla drivers) was entirely predictable.
2. Change chargers to 800V which uses cables with less copper.
3. Apple Air tags, RFID or other tracking devices in each cable.
4. TeslaChargeBot ( uses wheels Not humanoid type TeslaBot) mobile robot
- special design just for charging task
- mobile security ( patrol area. Detect loiters or stalkers hiding in area )
- plug/unplug charging cable to car
- drivers/owners no longer need to get out of car (safer from muggers)
- has a couple of industry standard adapters for non-Tesla EVs
Cameras mostly result in a placebo effect for victims of crime. Sometimes we get lucky and if the footage is released to the press someone might recognize the perpetrators and report them. But every cable theft footage will not result in a news story.
