A2Z NACS To CCS1 Adapter Review

[Kenmecca]

Got my Typhoon and went over to a local SC to test. Ordered 3/18. This thing is no knockoff, has some heft to it and no way the Tesla one will be built better IMHO. Worked petfect but the plug and charge rates are crazy! Had to take up 2 spots as the outside spot was taken. I'll do another test this week via Tesla app. Hmmm now where to take a road trip this weekend

Damn…that’s expensive.

Got mine today and headed straight to sc to try it out.

So far so good, not even even warm to touch after 5 mins at full pelt.

So far 31.3kwh added at $21.70

That's what impressed me about mine - doesn't even get warm.

Ordered 3/19, received yesterday (4/22)

Tested today at my local SC, plug and charge failed (I tried 3 times), charging via the Tesla app worked though (and 120kW+ at 68% with a cold pack, amazing).

Anyone else have plug and charge issue with SuperChargers?

You may have. Credit card issue on your rivian account. Try adding another payment method and making it default.

Received mine yesterday (ordered 3/19) and tried it last evening. Worked flawlessly all around.

Rate was $0.53/kWh (Cincinnati, OH)

Used mine for the first time yesterday with no issues. Didn't even feel warm after charging for about 45 minutes.

Just got mine in the mail - very impressed with the apparent heft and build quality.

I am a bit concerned about it's slipperiness however. I see that another supplier just started taking orders on a plastic cover with a lanyard and I didn't see the point. Now that I've handled it I am thinking that wrapping it with some elastomeric tape to improve grip might be a better approach.

Talon Grips for the win

Ah great - I see their are sheets of that material on Amazon for $11 - I'll try that!

$0.70/kWh, damn!

I feel for the folks that can't level 2 charge at home. I guess charging in the middle of the night in a dark parking lot is option that can reduce the price 20-30 cents/kWh.
