Tesla charge adapter

[moritzes]

Although it looks like you bought the correct adapter (CCS1 on the link), there is no mention of UL or CSA certification, which means it has not been tested for the power they claim on the link. It is not a known brand and certainly NOT #1 in Canada.

This is important. Use caution until it proves itself (or keep it as an emergency backup and use the A2Z adapter). Not to say it won't work, but failure will be expensive.

Or, since it's from Amazon, just return it and get the A2Z supercharger adapter. It will be less expensive on Black Friday and very reliable.

I’d like to ask the forum a question of the group going forward into a future purchase of possibly a 26 or a 27 EV. I read this statement today. “New vehicles will get built-in NACS charging ports starting in 2025.” so the current Port that is on the Mustang or other non-Tesla vehicles. My Ford charger works on every car pretty much that has stopped by to visit me. Neighbor with a Tesla I had an adapter plugged it into the adapter, then plugged it into the Tesla worked flawlessly. If they go with that built in NACS port isn’t that gonna change the design of the port compared to the charger handle that you have on your wall for your Ford? Would you need an adapter again? just a little confused on that. I mean, if they’re gonna make the port on the car where you can drive up to a supercharging station and just plug right in with the handle without an adapter it seems like the charger you have at home for your Ford. It’s not gonna work unless you have an adapter?

You are correct, current Ford J1772 chargers will need J1772 to NACS AC adapters to plug into the new NACS-native Fords. But soon, the chargers distributed by Ford or bought by 2027 Mach-E owners will be NACS-native, I'm sure.

Yeah, I wouldn't throw out any of your adapters.

Yep, even though I don’t have an electric car right now, I do have my adapter that will charge from the 1772 to my EcoFlow generators and I have the Tesla adapter

I really wouldn’t mind going back to the Mustang. I’d like to see a body change to be truthful. I’m kind of been looking at the new equinox RS the 26 I like the color of the red seats in the 25 but I’m looking towards 26 and 27 models if you’ve heard any drawbacks on the equinox you can share them privately if you want.

Yes, I'm very interested in seeing how the Mach-E will look in '28 when our lease is up. Wouldn't be at all surprised to stay with a new version of the car--we love it. Didn't look at Equinox when we got the Mach-E. We wanted a bit higher trim level and looked at the other usual suspects.
