I also have the A2Z adapter. I have had issues getting it to be recognized and contacted the company and also have received a replacement which I have not tried yet.

In my case each time I was however able to get it to work after some fussing with it. Make sure the NACS is fully seated. You should hear a snap or thunk when it seats. If you do it is very clear that the latch button is fully locked in. If the latch button is indicating kinda locked it is not and the charger will not initiate. It may take some force to get it to seat.

I am headed out to try the replacement today. I’ll update with my experience.
Make sure you inspect the small pins on your car's charge port. One of mine was bent, which caused my problem.

To A2Z’s credit there is little play on the NACS side. I had to quickly and forcefully push the NACS connector into the adapter (you must hear the faint snap ate the end) and then I had to close the lock completely. Then I could charge. I got it to work at the Brea Mall. Some of the connects I could not fully engage because they were a little roughed up. Not sure where in the OC you tried.
Turns out there is very little play on the J1772 side as well. The Control Pilot pin on my car was bent and the A2Z wouldn't connect to it. Thankfully it was an easy fix.

Got over there and plugged in the new one and it initially did not connect. Got the Red flashing light. Pulled it out reseated the NACS, this required pushing it hard. First time I pressed the adapter against my front tire. Heard the snap plugged back into the car and intimidated the charge. Did it 3 more times just to be sure. Then tried the original and it also worked. In the end my issue was probably user error.
