"When a route is started that includes Tesla Superchargers, drivers may see a warning that the route requires a Fast Charging Adapter (NACS) – drivers should make sure to have it with them to use. Battery preconditioning when enroute to a charger is not available for Apple Maps EV Routing."
 
A new ChargePoint DCFC location opened on one of my regular routes, and every EVSE has both CCS1 and J3400/NACS cables. It got me wondering if using J3400 is better to charge the Lightning with as opposed to the bulkier CCS1 or if it doesn't make a difference. I have the adapter from Ford. My new Flash has extended range so I likely won't need to use the public charge, but I am curious if there's any benefit at a non-Tesla site.
