Tesla Wall charger for Taycan?

[Shigura]

I am eagerly awaiting delivery of my CT4 in a few weeks time. However I am a little concerned about one regular round trip that I make here in the UK of about
210 miles with no fast chargers on route or at the destination. With a few miles added whilst at the destination this comes close to the range of the car. I do have access at the destination to a Tesla owner's 2yr old Tesla Wall Charger and I understand it is possible to use this as it uses a type 2 connector. But I have been told that I may have to move an internal switch to an alternative setting in the Tesla Wall Charger to make it work with non Tesla EVs. Does anyone have knowledge of this switch, it's whereabouts and perhaps a photo?

It is very easy to do. If you can download the installation manual for the Tesla wall connector do so. Here is a picture of the DIP switch that you need to set in the off position. Tesla state that the switch should always be in the on position but no problems to switch. Have used mine for 18 months or so.

I’ve not flipped the switch on my Tesla Chargers - but it make make them work differently - so far they appear to “just work” if you have the requisite TeslaTap or equivalent

Not sure if my electrician flipped the switch or not, but it is definitely possible to charge the Taycan with one using an adapter like TeslaTap. This is how I charge mine at home.

Many thanks for your helpful and informative reply.
