For a second I thought this was the magic charging arm that would allow driverless cars to charge themselves, not quite made it to 2018 yet pn Elon's promise timeline lol.
Tesla Magic Dock will work on all EVs with a CCS port (fast charging). After a quick Google search it would appear your Kia Niro Plug-In uses a J1172 charge port (level 2 slow charger). It will not work on most plug-in hybrids.
They actually do have signs posted with QR codes that say “scan to charge non-Tesla” but it just downloads and opens the app, you still have to manually select the stall.
@@donwald3436 The app is looking for a serial number really, to say you are at a specific location. That if you connect to the charger and cannot charge, then you can look for a secondary validation of why the scanned code doesnt work. Not the end of the world if you scanned an incorrect QR code. The app shouldnt be executing malicious code or actually directing you to a website instead.... So if you authorised another station to charge AND someone took that opportunity to start charging their car, you can see in app you are charging, yet you are not even plugged in, ending that session remotely. QED?
This video proves useful for EV Owners with different charging standards that are scarce in their area like Chademo.
You are not the first RUclipsr to say NCIS instead of NACS. It is just so close...
Wait did I? 🙀

FYI, you don’t need to use the app anymore. Press and hold the button for 2 seconds, push up and in, then pull out the magic dock.
he literally demonstrated that.
I have a 2019 kia Niro plug-in will it work?

I am curious if you would do the same charge on the tesla without the adapter to compare against with this test.
Yes, I have plans to do the same soon.
Just imagine each Tesla charger having a QR code you could scan than having to find the station you are at. RIP

@@AIAddict Stalls should be given unique QR codes then
@@dragade101 that would be a nice touch moving forward
Wow that'd be a great place to paste a scam QR code....

Does anyone know when Tesla going to allow VW to use Tesla supercharger c
Interesting experiment.
Thank you! Cheers!
So is the magic dock for charging non Tesla cars
Btw this is the guy you met at Santana row for the cyber truck
Hey everyone. he is a tesla ex employee that got fired!!! Just you know !
We know already and what has that to do with the product he shows in this video? 😅
Do you go around spouting irrelevant negativity to everyone you meet? I pity your life.
