maximum charge amperage on 120vac?

[EnerGene]

What's the maximum 120vac charge amperage of our Rav4's?
I've read threads about charging om TT-30 but wasn't sure what amperage rate the Rav would suckup.

Thanks

20 amps max at 120 volts. OEM charge cord is only 12 amps.

That's right. You have to have an EVSE that is properly configured to operate at 120 volts and signal the car that the higher current is available. A Jesla with a TT-30 to 14-50 adapter will do that. Even though the car is being told it can draw 40 amps, it will only draw 20, so it is safe.

All Tesla powered cars (2012-2014) are limited to 20 amps with 120 volts powering the onboard charger.

All newer Tesla cars (2015 - newer) are limited to 24 amps at 120 volts.
