Correction, 1000V. There might have been some confusion with volts and amps.

Will post some news tonight.

Thanks!

Good catch. 100% I had a brain fart and flipped the amps / volts numbers.

I tried using the A2Z adapter today at a supercharger.

For the life of me, I could not get it to work. I think either I'm not able to lock the bottom lock or it is not fully latching on.

Tried for almost 30 minutes before leaving the site frustrated

@A2ZEV maybe can chime in and let me know if any way to identify a (perhaps) bad adapter?

Any tips would be appreciated.

The first time I used the adapter it was tight. Is it possible that you don't have it on all the way? Also, make sure that the inside piece moves up and down when unlocked and does not move when locked. See attached.

Thank you!
I'm planning to try again this weekend. I'll update here.

Thanks to Ameen from @A2ZEV . He jumped on a call and sent me a video as well. Superb and fast!

@A2ZEV Is Midnight's discount code going to be restored to old value? Would appreciate it
I see the discount has been increased from 5% to 10% and you save even more if you bundle the Tesla AC to J-1772 charger.

Edit: Discount is now 15% off which is the same as when most folks ordered on March 18th.

I received my bundle AC + DC Tesla charging adapters.

I’ll make a review this weekend on the stellar AC plug that you can use with Tesla home chargers or destination chargers up to 80 amps.

I personally like A2Z AC adapter over others because of the higher amperage limit, smaller compact size, pricing and the built in lock.

I’ll share the rest of the review in a new thread for everyone.

just now I noticed the discount code “RIV” has been increased to 15%. This is the same price as when I ordered it when Rivian was finally able to use the Tesla network on March 18th.
