The surprising Tesla products you never knew existed
Whatever happens to the Tesla cars (which some find awesome and others flawed), there are always other branches for Elon Musk to make money in.
And even if it's not his space travel company, SpaceX, then at least he'll have a range of products on his website to fall back on. What about this 60-dollar Tesla umbrella? Click on to see what else Musk is selling.
Taking advantage of its original designs, the company has a surprising catalogue that includes this go-kart for the youngest drivers for 600 dollars.
300 dollars for a 750 ml bottle of Tesla Tequila is quite a lot, but we're talking about a premium tequila with a hint of nuts, vanilla, cinnamon and pepper. In any case, remember: when you drink, don't drive.
It was a surprise launch and, despite this, the stock of 200 surfboards sold out in less than 24 hours. Each board cost $1,500 and at resale they even fetch up to four times the price. Designed by Lost Surboards and Matt Mayhem Biolos, they are made from the same 'Black Dart' carbon fibre that Tesla uses in its car interiors. The company receives many calls for them to be made again.
For many of us, this is the most accessible way to get ourselves a Tesla. That is, a Tesla hat, not a car. It costs $30.
Tesla's sportswear line includes the 'S3XY' hoodie, a limited edition with a price of $80.
The Tesla Solar Roof helps reduce traditional electricity consumption in the home. According to the webstore, they are designed to last for decades and three times stronger than ordinary roofs.
This innovative energy storage system continues the power supply in the event of a blackout. It is recharged by solar energy and can keep the house running for days. The cost is $7,500 plus installation.
For those interested in a baby Tesla, there's a few miniature models on the market. The 1:24 scale Tesla truck costs $174. Designed by the same team that builds the full-size Tesla Semi, every detail, curve and surface of the model is precisely replicated, says the webstore.
My First Tesla replicates the Model Y and is suitable for 1- to 4-year-olds. The price for this mini version is 120 dollars. It's not easy to find in stock because it sells out quickly.
This battery charger for mobile phones has a capacity of 3,350 mAh. It's a bit meagre compared to other chargers, but of course, they are not Tesla. The price is 52 dollars.
This Tesla tumbler is made of stainless steel, can hold 500ml of liquid and costs 30 dollars. Of course it has the Tesla logo on it.
The Desktop Supercharger replicates the company's car charger including the CAD with its original design. It costs 35 dollars, but it doesn't include the lightning cable that you will need to charge your Apple device.
For fans of miniatures, Tesla offers all of its models in 1:18 scale, starting with the Model 3. It was made by the team that builds the full-size original, according to the website. The model costs $175.
The California design team has ensured that this 1:18 scale model is a close match to the original, the webstore notes. It has over 270 parts, the interior is meticulously designed, and even the boot is carpeted. Its price? $175.
This 1:18 scale Tesla Model X has double-hinged falcon doors, three rows of seven seats and a rear spoiler drive. Like the other models, it costs $175.
The 180 parts of the miniature Tesla Roadster 2.0 include seat belts made of fabric, and doors and a boot that open. The price is $175.
Finally, there a product many of us use, but then in Tesla design. The stainless steel water bottle has a capacity of 600 ml and holds both hot and cold liquids. The price is $30.
