    Tesla Charging Adaptor (SAE J1772)

    Hi All- I hope I am posting to the right place. I have a non-Tesla vehicle and a J1772 EVSE hardwired in by a master electrician who specializes in these installs. For some reason I feel like my car is not totally compatible with this charger. I cannot get the charger to stop "feeding energy" to...

    Tesla Charging Adaptor (SAE J1772)

    I'm wondering if others have this issue. I have a non-Tesla vehicle and a J1772 EVSE hardwired in by a master electrician who specializes in these installs.

    Tesla Charging Adaptor (SAE J1772)

    I agree. Those are my exact thoughts. In all honesty I have not tried another EVSE. I will go to both a friend’s house with another charger and a public charger. With the public ones, it should shut off, correct? There’s no arc normally? Thank you for all of your advice!! Truly appreciate

    I’ve got the J1772 (non-Tesla, Tesla charger), and use it with a Mach-E. When I release the nozzle from the port, there is a small arc that occurs every time. I’m having trouble posting the video. I will try again in the AM

    Tesla Charging Adaptor (SAE J1772)

    Thanks, Dave. Pushing the button on the handle triggers something ON on my vehicle. I left out two important points that I had written in my own post hat was never approved here. I brought my car in for service at the dealership to see if it was my car itself. There were no reports on record in...

    Tesla Charging Adaptor (SAE J1772)

    I wrote out a whole explanation/question in this group last week and the moderators have not approved it — no idea why. I have a Ford and the J1772 EVSE. It was hardwired in by a master electrician. I noticed that when it charged to the % that I’ve indicated both in my car itself and in the...

    Newbie question on adapters: Is there a Tesla brand NACS-to-J1772 adapter?

    They seem to have stopped production of J1772. I got the last one at my local Best Buy, and there is some sort of incompatibility issue with my non-Tesla vehicle.
