Sleep at the Campground. Wake Up Charged.
Pack the right Tesla RV adapter kit for overnight campground stops — TT-30 and NEMA 14-50 adapters for your Tesla Mobile Connector, plus an optional EV-rated extension cord.
Why EV Charging at Campgrounds
Is Confusing
Most campground outlets aren't standard EV plugs
RV park pedestals use TT-30 (30-amp, 120V) and NEMA 14-50 (50-amp, 240V) outlets — neither of which plugs directly into most EVs without an adapter.
You need the right adapter for your campsite outlet
RV park pedestals come in different outlet types — TT-30 and NEMA 14-50 are the most common. Bringing the wrong adapter for your campsite's outlet leaves you without a charge.
Not every campground allows EV charging
Some parks restrict pedestal use for vehicles or charge extra for high-draw usage. Showing up without confirmed access means a wasted stop on your itinerary.
What Do You Need at the Campsite?
Your setup depends on your vehicle type and which outlet your site's pedestal has.
Tesla RV Adapter Setup
Use your existing Tesla Gen 2 Mobile Connector — just add the right NEMA adapter.

What's at the Pedestal?
Your campsite pedestal determines what to pack. Most sites have TT-30; full-hookup sites often also include NEMA 14-50.
| Outlet | Voltage / Circuit | Approx. Charge Rate | What to Pack |
|---|---|---|---|
| TT-30 (30-amp pedestal) | 120V / 30A | 6–8 miles / hr (Not Level 2) | Tesla TT-30 Adapter → connects your Mobile Connector to the 30A pedestal |
| NEMA 14-50 (full-hookup) | 240V / 50A | 28–35 miles / hr (Level 2 — ~4x faster) | Tesla NEMA 14-50 Adapter → connects your Mobile Connector to the 50A pedestal |
| No outlet at site | — | — | Plan a DC fast charging stop before or after the campground |
Campsite Pedestal
Too Far Away?
Some RV park sites place the power pedestal at the road edge — out of reach of a standard 25FT charger cable. A WenStorm EV-rated extension cord bridges the gap without compromising the charging circuit.
