It doesn't do anything, and I've found the range not to be quite so large, it's just a funny trick to play on parked teslas as you're going by. They even close themselves after a small while, all chargers emit a small radio signal when you pick up the charger plug and the flipper emulates that, making the Tesla think you're about to plug it in and open automatically.
