Hi everyone,

I'm in a bit of a bind and could really use some advice. I requested a Tesla super charger adapter from Ford back in March, but due to supply issues, it won't be arriving until September. Unfortunately, I need one for a couple of summer mini road trips.

I'm looking for recommendations on reliable adapters that are currently available for purchase. Has anyone had experience with third-party brands or retailers that offer good-quality adapters?

If you have any specific brands or models you can vouch for, or any tips on where to find a good deal, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks in advance for your help!

A bit confused by your question. A2Z *is* a brand of adapter.
The Tesla SuperCharger adapters Ford is sending out are designed by Tesla, but I'm not sure of the manufacturer.

Search on this forum for other posts. I think generally people have been happy with A2Z and you'll receive it way earlier than the Ford one.

You've got some terminology confused. A2ZEV is a company that makes adapters. They are not making the Ford adapter, that is being supplied by Tesla.

The A2ZEV adapter is very good and reliable, and right now will arrive between 6/7 and 6/14.

$177.30 (10%) off. https://a2zevshop.com/?ref=Typhoon

If you also want to charge at hotels and such with Tesla Destination chargers, in the drop down menu on the Typhoon page you can pick both adapters, and it's $252, 18% off.

From everything I've heard A2Z is the best alternative to the Ford adapter. Strictly speaking Tesla doesn't allow use of any adapter they've not approved (which as of now and the foreseeable future is the one they provide to Ford, Rivian, etc.), however there are no active parts in the adapter so there is no way for Tesla (or Ford) to know what adapter you're using. So I would definitely recommend you get the A2Z adapter. But order it soon, as I think there is still a two to three week lead-time to receive one from them.
