That’s not a charger though. EVs can’t take the direct power from a generator. It needs to communicate with a base. So that “cable” is impossible and is a joke.
You 100% can plug in an unpowered mobile connector and drive away. If it’s not actually on a circuit, it does not detect it, does not light up, and does not lock the charger (the plastic notch underneath).
My point is that wouldn’t work, unless the car was in park. A Tesla will simply refuse to move if a charger is connected

Doesn’t matter. The car knows something’s plugged in, even if it can’t talk to it

Of course every single pin in a Tesla is labeled ‘X-something’.

As this comment explains, the car can detect a plug that’s not connected to anything.

Ah, gotcha.
