A quick release interface bracket for the Telsa wall connector Gen 3, 3 phase version.
I'm not sure if it fits the single phase version, please let me know.

If you add a Plug and Cord to your Wall connector, you can take it easily to use it as a 3 phase mobile charger.

It was strong enough to hold the weight of the charge cable coiled up and hanging on it, plus me pulling on it. Used PETG

Screws required.
6G x 12mm Sheet metal tappers - For the Interface bracket.
Flie the tip off the screw, about 1mm or less, to make it a little shorter

Interface bracket = 271g
Wall bracket clip = 122g

 

Print Settings

Used PETG.

Use 10% gyroid infill. I tried 5% but it was a bit soft.

3 Perimeters using a 0.4mm nozzle. With a 0.6mm nozzle you could use 2 perimters.

Use the Modifier files to add solid infill to the stress points, as shown in the slicer screen shots.
Interface bracket. Add 2 side bars, a top bar and the screw holes.
Wall bracket clip. Add 2 side bars and the screw holes.

I didn't need a brim. If you have it warping off the bed try a brim.

 

Post processing

Used a large flat blade screw driver to chisel out the infill. Needle nose pliers too.

Safety.
Always wear safety glasses when removing infill, sometimes it shoots off. When using sharp tools aim them away from your body.. :)
