Re: Is it possible to make a CCS to CHAdeMO adapter?

I'm not concerned about the component costs, if it's feasible to do. The plugs are affordable enough to make it worthwhile. Unfortunately this is too technical for me and I just don't have the time to go at it alone, but if it's possible to do, I'm more than happy to support and work with whoever is ...

Re: Tesla Combined Charging System (CCS)

Yes, if you look at the standalone development thread, you can see the board is physically larger and has the GreenPHY support on it.
The practical road path I see going down this road is reverse engineering the signals the Chademo->US Tesla connector uses, and having a CCS adapter speak that. If ...

Since we're moving toward CCS adoption and there are getting to be more CCS chargers than CHAdeMO, this is a highly requested need. I always tell them such an adapter is not feasible to make because the two ...

Re: Tesla Combined Charging System (CCS)

Hello everyone. My business is making charging adapters for Tesla, and a few days ago I tried charging a 2020 Model 3 (North America market) vehicle using a prototype CCS1 to NA Tesla adapter. It didn't work, and maybe that's a confirmation that only the European Tesla vehicles have the additional ...
