Extension Cords
One problem with any corded EVSE (like the Tesla Mobile Connector) is that they typically only have a 20' long cord, and your receptacles could be farther away, especially if you are charging on the road in a random rented house or condo and are trying to reach a dryer receptacle.
You have two choices. You can buy an extension cord for the household plug side, in which case you need a specific extension cord for every type of plug you want to extend. Or you can now purchase an extension cord for the EVSE plug end (either a J1772 extension or a NACS plug extension), in which case it becomes a universal extension cord for any type of plug that your corded or mobile EVSE supports.
For the latter, here are a few products that will extend the EVSE plug end giving you a universal extension cord:
If all you need is a single extension cord for a known destination plug, here are some links:
