Charging the Mercedes Benz EQS in Electrify America
i went in 2013
700 dollars is a steal for tumi 19 degrees, i have the silver one
I KNOW, RIGHT?!!! I was settling for the Monos but I saw the Tumi in Nordstrom Rack. It’s usually retailed between $1,200-$1,300.
congrats! It's a good choice, love my tumi 19 degree carry on ❤️
Thank you for the video. Bought two rimowa originals ten years ago. Hundreds of trips and plenty of miles on the wheel, especially my carry-on. Both very tented, especially the check-in that have gotten a few hard knocks but only cosmetical. At least from my experience Rimowa is proper quality. Also have a TUMI nylon backpack that has weathered quite a lot as well. With that said, I checked monos warranty and lifetime warranty is very promising.
Thanks for sharing. Both the Rimowa and Tumi carry on were checked-in in our recent trip from Rome so both got some scratches right away. Thankfully no dent on the aluminum.
Low energy review. Covered the basics, ok for a quick review. Comparing to the Manila Hotel breakfast brunch is a big ask.
Yeah, just a quick impressions for an overnight stay.
How about entertainment??? What shows do they have? The hotel seems a bit boring 😢
@@Pedro-wz8rp that they lack. I think the hotel is more geared towards guests who want to relax and do nothing. No options for entertainment.
This December it's Bonjour Paris as Air France 🇫🇷 after more than 20 years they are returning to the Philippines and taking a 14hr direct nonstop flight from Manila to Paris Charles de Gaulle and can't wait to be greeted again by the cabin crew with "Bonjour et Bienvenue á Bord" plus a complementary champagne 🥂 onboard, I do speak a little French "Je parlez petits Français" . If you plan to travel on Air France better take a crash course in the French language. Bon Voyage.
Thank you for sharing. Do they provided some sort of fitted sheet to cover the reclining chair?
No fitted sheet but there’s a sheet and comforter.
Checking the map on Sept 20th ‘24 these are only available in northern california. The closets one to san diego is in LA 😂. Tesla does not want to open it up quite yet
Yeah, I think I only saw 3 in California. Opening via NACS is probably the best direction so Tesla doesn’t need to retrofit to magic dock.
I just subscribed as well. Hopefully, your numbers wil move quickly as well. It took me about a year to reach the 1k for my cooking channel. I need to do a lot more postings. Lately, work has been keeping me pretty busy. Good luck you too and thanks again.
Thanks. I’d like to post more but work got me busy. I’ll be posting some travel videos in the next few weeks.
@@mailaandjames I know what you mean about work😊. Posting travel videos is a lot of fun. You feel you’re re-experiencing the trip you took. I recently posted my Alaska trip and cruise. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’ve had our EQE 350 SUV for a couple months. I haven’t tried yet. I will download the Tesla App to see what’s around us in the Houston area, especially if we’re making a trip to Dallas, San Antonio or Austin areas.
Glad I could share.
MUSIC IS ANNOYING SHUT OFF MUSIC ONBOARD. VIDEO IS TOO SHORT
Thinking to use my points for this flight ❤
What’s ACS ?
NACS?
It’ll be nice if you cut out the music. It’s really annoying.
Hello very nice review! how many points did you use for the upgrade?
30K point plus $500 per person
I have a GV60 and am thinking about trading it for a used EQS 580 sedan. What are your thoughts?
@@GraysonA totally different class of cars and a total upgrade. Comfort, range, and features is far superior in the EQS.
@@mailaandjames I've read that the EQS has glitchy and outdated software and maybe worse reliability. Any concerns about that?
😊 how was the beach , is it possible to swim safely or the water is raged ? … I don’t like pools, I like to swim in ocean …
Yes it was at the time that we were there.
How much is your fare compare to PAL.?
They’re about the same, around $4500-$$4800 round trip… but we used United points for return flight upgrade though.
Tesla hasn't opened up charging to Mercedes, only Ford and Rivian. You can only use Tesla chargers WITH MAGIC DOCK, so your ability to charge on Tesla is very limited at best. It will be a while before Tesla opens up to other automakers.
Annette, are you a high ranking Tesla employee? How do you know?
That’s Lovely! Cheers for more awesome and breathtaking adventures!🥂🤩❤️✨
Thank you! 😃
Soon makakapasyal at staycation dyan.
Highly recommended
@@mailaandjames I'm thinking of buying a condo there, seems the best place in BGC, including being next to mall. What are your thoughts?
Tip: they’ll give pj’s over flights 14+ hours if you ask the FA. United usually never hands them out, but they are having a futbol special this month so I think they are promoting them heavily. don’t be afraid to ask! If PAL had better seats they would be awesome but definitely Polaris is a better hard product with that SFO lounge.
@@dis1pnoy thanks. I read about the 14+ hrs but SFO to MNL was about 13 that’s why we were surprised on the return flight. And yep, that Polaris lounge is miles ahead of PAL lounge, even PAL’s better NAIA lounge still falls behind Polaris.
I haven’t flown UA Business Class yet but your review jibes with what others said. UA food is mediocre. PAL Business Class food is topnotch!
Even the food presentation is better in PAL. Not to mention the service! It’s real Filipino hospitality. Seats are better in UA though.
Nice video! My daughter’s name is Malia James 😊
Thanks for posting this. Going back to Philippines for staycation but double checking if we’ll book UA or PAL. I guess I can’t judge the foods bec you guys pre-ordered vegetarian..
We flew PAL business a couple of years ago and also pre-ordered vegetarian. Even that was better food. Seats are nicer in UA though.
Such creative videos you’ve on this channel. I just subscribed!
Thank you so much!!
“Ohh I guess I have to do it manually” proceeds to talk to car again, 1st world problems 😂
I know, right?😂
For My 30th Birthday I'm Going To DISNEY AULANI HOTEL Which I've Never Been There Before But I'll Go There In 2026 To Meet Characters Like DUFFY And SHELLIEMAY And Other Characters There As Well
Can you leave a link for the doc connector. I just bought eqb. Greetings from Las Vegas. Thank you
This is the magic dock which already in the Tesla supercharger. I don’t think MB has an adapter to NACS yet.
Thank you for sharing this
You are so welcome
In 2026 For My 30th Birthday I'm Going To DISNEY AULANI HOTEL I've Never Been There Before But I'll Go There To Meet Characters Like DUFFY And SHELLIEMAY And Other Characters As Well
Glad you can enjoy the palms of Hawaii. Be sure to let us know of your experience.
Ok Sounds Great 😀👍
Thank you! Very helpful.
Glad you found it useful.
What do you think about the break ? occasionally when I stepped on it the car keeps going. I have to step hard to make it stopped. Sometimes I feel like the car break is defective Delilah
It’s not as responsive as I would want it to be. It feels more weird when you’re on strong regen mode so I keep it on normal regen.
You did not mention if I need an adapter because the tip is different than the Mercedez EQS 450
This Tesla supercharger has a magic dock (adapter) built in. There are only superchargers with magic dock in California right now.
Thanks for the tour. Feeling like I was just there.
Beautiful facility and guests

Hoping to get a GV70 2.5T later this year or early next year.
Hi, thanks so much for sharing all your information and your journey. I just purchased 04-20-2024 a 2024 EQE 350+ SUV the dealer did not charge The car took delivery with it at about 21% battery went to electrify America. It started charging at about 173 kWh, but then quickly dropped in about three minutes only about 40 kWh. I guess I did not pre-condition the battery is there any advice on how to start a precondition on the way to the charging station I actually couldn't find out how to select the charging station I was going to because all the charging stations in the car navigation just show half baked addresses, I knew the address but couldn't figure out how to select the exact charging station I was going to thanks
Congrats on the purchase. To precondition, go to EQ (top left corner), then “charging”, then HVAC bat. Pre-temp control. Mine’s set to automatic. For charging stations, I go EQ, then “route”, then “charging stations”. You can filter by kilowatts. Hope this helps.
@@mailaandjames thank you for your quick reply
Hi, Can you charge at any Tesla supercharger if you have an adapter of your own considering getting a EQE SUV. thanks
Not yet. Mercedes is supposed to release adapters this year. There’s limiting software at Tesla superchargers that’ll prevent you from using 3rd party adapters.
@@mailaandjames OK, thanks again for your quick reply. Appreciate it very much down here in South Florida the electrify America chargers are getting really bad reviews. I don’t know for sure because I do not have an EQ as of yet.
Hi, thanks for sharing. I am considering getting an EQE SUV. Do you have any advice or opinions regarding liability? Do you recommend the car any drawbacks and can you charge at any Tesla charger or only certain chargers thanks.
We’ve had the car for 10-11 months now and no issues at all. I just wish there’s on/off or lock/unlock just like Tesla/Rivian/Lucid. Mercedes is supposed to start using Tesla superchargers this year using an adapter. At this time, there are very minimal Tesla chargers that has Magic dock. MB gets 2 years free charging for 30 mins in Electrify America. I was also looking at the EQE500 SUV. 2024 Model comes standard with hyperscreen for the 500s.
@@mailaandjames thanks so much for your quick reply so if I get the adapter, can I charge at any Tesla supercharger here in South Florida?
Why bother blurring the license plate at this point? Should've just removed it before taking all the shots FYI
Thanks for tip. It was also a temporary plate to start withz
My EQS came with two years of free charging at Electrify America so I don’t think I would want to pay at a Magic Dock when I can charge for free at EA. That benefit will expire in June and I hope that Mercedes will offer a Tesla adapter soon after that. When they do it should be plug and charge, so no need to use an app. We are almost in Sept of 2024 now and still no word from Mercedes about an adapter to use superchargers. There are very few Magic Docks that we can use.
Yeah, I can’t wait. Press release states early 2024 so it should be soon. I know Ford has access to Superchargers now.
Thanks for the tips guys! We’re planning on going to El Nido end of July, beginning August. I looked up Seda Lio but for 5 of us, they wouldn’t allow more than 2 people per room. The resort looks nice! Perhaps we can stay here when it’s just my husband and I.

Nice one, got this car also but upgrading to Polestar 4 wen I take delivery of it ❤
Nice 👍
Wow, seems kind of expensive for 20% charge about how many miles was added with 20% charge did you take note? Thanks.
Probably about 70+ miles
@@mailaandjames OK, thanks so much for your quick reply
no one cause ill never buy a pos
Rivian ❤

Did you precondition the battery? If not, that’s likely why you only got 91kW of charging speed.
Good point. I didn’t pre-condition the battery.
Thanks for the helpful video. I haven’t used a Magic Dock yet.
I have a EQB how do I precondition the battery?
@@jenniferoneal1538 I have an EQS, not an EQB, so I don't know for sure how it works on the EQB. In my car, the setting for automatic preconditioning is on the charging screen. Select the EQ menu, then the charging tab at the bottom of that menu. There's a button to turn on automatic preconditioning. There's no way to manually precondition. Remember that for the car to precondition, you have to have navigated to the charging station using the car's built-in navigation system. Not apple maps or CarPlay. The car has to know you are heading to a charger. It will determine if the battery needs warmed up or cooled down and will do it automatically.
