it's not recommended - but if you're going to do it - use a commercial/industrial quality cord - at least rated for 20 amps.

something like this or even heavier duty…

if you burn down the house don't blame me - it's NOT recommended.

Tony—just pay an electrician to put a 240v plug into your garage. Bracket the mobile charger right underneath it, and you’re done. (And your house won’t burn down.)

As long as you use a heavy duty cord (12/3 or 10/3 better, or lower), it's fine. Done it with my Tesla for ages.

I have this one that I bought when chargers were far and few between, never used it and I would sell it tomorrow.
