I have been trying to figure out all day what the 'Magic Dock'. Thanks for this explanation!

So as I understand it, if a CCS1 driver requests charging on a specific Magic Dock supercharger via the Tesla app, removing the cable will cause the CCS1 adapter to be already attached and non-removable.

But removing the cable without requesting CCS1 charging via the app will leave the CCS1 adapter attached to the supercharger frame, so that the default connector can charge a Tesla exactly as on a non-Magic Dock Supercharger.

Do I understand correctly?

If so, that's pretty slick!

This will be awesome! We just came across ND, the only level 3 charger in Jamestown ND is Tesla. We spent a lot of time on the Jamestown collage campus just to get enough charge to get to Dickinson. Looking forward to being able to use Tesla when there is no other level 3 options.

The so-called Magic Dock adapter that will let non-Tesla EV owners to top up at Superchargers in the US has appeared in leaked schematics and it looks like the Magic Docks in South Korea, just with the reverse purpose. Tesla's goal is to be prepared for the upcoming US government mandate on charging infrastructure compatibility in the US.
