Re: charging station / wallbox hardware basics
If you do not need the plastic housing anymore, just dremel it away (e.g. at the green lines), maybe this reveals some snap-in thingies below the PCB.
If nothing helps, you can dremel the housing and PCB on the blue line.

First video review of this unit i see from an actual customer, maker is Yi Dian Xiong from China (易電熊 for those who can understand chinese)
Interesting note, the car seems to think it is charging at a Supercharger, see 9:41 in the video. Wonder if this ...

Re: charging station / wallbox hardware basics
LF356 should be ok. The only concern is the output voltage swing, WE need nearly rail to rail, which does neigther the 356 nor the 355 advertise. So just give a try and look on the scope.
Thanks for the advice, i have not got all the components together yet, shall update the homeplug situation ...

Re: charging station / wallbox hardware basics
A question regarding op-amp selection.
On the BOM it stated to use the LF355 Op-Amp, is it ok for me to substitute it with the LF356N. (355 dont seemed to be available in the UK and i dont fancy buying potentially fakes on ebay)
I have skimmed through the datasheet, it seems like the difference is ...

Re: Selfmade CCS Inlet?
Found some chinese seller are selling a complete unit for around £70, socket + pins, no wires.
Is it really worth printing your own?

Re: charging station / wallbox hardware basics
They assembled it somehow. It doesn't look like a mold in place situation from the picture at all.
The shrouded one needs better pictures. They connected it / trapped it in there somehow. It's it soldered?
Maybe a small torch to heat the terminal from the top to melt the solder of it is?

Re: charging station / wallbox hardware basics
To take the PCB out I think I have to remove the AC pins (Pass thru plug so the pin at the bottom are holding it in).
There are two ways of doing it I think.
a) Destroy the plastic casing and extract the PCB that way
b) Use a Dremel and cut the PCB off right below the AC pins
Any ideas will be ...

Re: charging station / wallbox hardware basics
Sorry for asking very basics questions, have been reading up on the GitHub repo about modifying the modem.
Currently i have got a TP-Link PA4010P v5.0 (UK plug), the live and neutral pin on the PCB seems to be injection moulded into the plastic housing, preventing me from disassembling it.
I see ...
