Tesla Cybertruck owner does test to see how long it takes to charge the car from a regular plug outlet

A Tesla Cybertruck owner tried charging his truck using a regular plug outlet.

The result was a little bit disconcerting.

It’s going to take him over a day to charge his truck to 100 percent, it turns out.

That’s not even the worst part – he’s starting from a half-charged truck.

Charging an EV with a regular plug outlet might not be a great idea

Joe Fay, a Cybertruck owner and content creator who goes by jf.okay on social media, often documents his experiments using his truck on his TikTok channel.

As part of his latest experiment, he tries charging his truck using a regular plug outlet, the same system you’d use to charge your phone or your laptop.

It didn’t go particularly well.

He says it’ll take over 24 hours to charge his truck from 55 percent to 100 percent.

That sounds terrible, to be honest, even for something that’s obviously to be a last resort solution, and it begs a question.

Namely, does that mean it would take 48 hours to charge the truck from 0 to 100 percent?

This Cybertruck owner’s latest experiment

Fay uses his TikTok channel to talk about some interesting ‘experiments’ he conducts using his Cybertruck, which he clearly adores by the way.

Among other things, we’ve seen him show off the incredible steering capabilities of the truck.

He also talked about the Cybertruck’s tonneau cover, and how you can, as it turns out, use Cybertruck as a charger for other vehicles.

This is one of the most interesting features we’ve heard of so far.

Just like using a regular plug outlet, charging your EV with your other EV is obviously not ideal.

A bit like charging your iPhone using your Mac, but it can be done, in case of an emergency, which is sort of nice to know, isn’t it?
