They have 2 adapters. One is the Korean and another is OEM. The latter is available. Anyone have any insight on this?
You can't. Tesla now is making sure the vehicle in your account is a SK model. You would need a SK vehicle to order the adapter without Tesla canceling your order.I have a friend in Korea, can they purchase the CCS adapter using my VIN?
As far as I know, the adapter made by Tesla is no longer being sold by Harumio. The OEM non-Tesla made one isn't affected but I think it was just released so there's no reviews/info about it outside of Harumio's product page.They have 2 adapters.

It’s in my cart but I’m not sure of checking out as there are no reviews like you said. No refunds so $230 would be gone should it not work.You can't.

Maybe your friend can check out the 3rd party one at Harumio?I have a friend in Korea, can they purchase the CCS adapter using my VIN?
The non-Tesla CCS1 adapter on Harumio looks to me like the A2Z adapter from Canada. That said, it's odd that buying from Harumio is cheaper than buying direct from A2Z; but maybe Harumio worked out a big discount and is working on razor-thin margins -- or maybe the two products just look identical in photos, and are in fact from different manufacturers.They have 2 adapters.

There are significant discussions of the A2Z adapter on this forum… The A2Z product has no lock to prevent the CCS plug from being disconnected…I'd prefer to hold out for the Tesla adapter, or at least something with the safety interlock…
You have your answer in the specs. Same design different specs. Harumio just changed it this morning, they removed the 150A but they advertise still less kW than A2Z.The non-Tesla CCS1 adapter on Harumio looks to me like the A2Z adapter from Canada.

There are significant discussions of the A2Z adapter on this forum. I don't recall if they're in this particular thread or elsewhere. In brief, those who've gotten their hands on prototypes say that they work, but the product is so new that I have yet to see any comments from anybody with a regular production sample. The A2Z product has no lock to prevent the CCS plug from being disconnected while the car is charging. As I understand it, this is a violation of the CCS1 specification, and at least in theory, it makes it less safe; but there are other safety features in CCS1, so it's unclear to me how important this omission is. Personally, I'd prefer to hold out for the Tesla adapter, or at least something with the safety interlock -- but I also have a 2019 Model 3 that's not CCS-enabled, so I need to wait for an upgrade to the charge port ECS anyhow. (I'm aware of the DIY ECS upgrade path, but I've decided not to go that route, at least not right away.)
Any insight on this one:
CCS Combo 1 Adapter
Compatible Models: Tesla Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X* TESPLUS CCS Combo 1 Adapter will expand your fast charging options and provides charging speeds up to 250 kW at third party charging networks. Includes: 1x CCS Combo 1 Adapter *Please note, check the system setting at...www.tesplus.com
Dunno, but the contact us page of their website says:Does that mean it will also be made by Pegatron of Taiwan?
If it’s the extra resistors and stuff that gives you pause (honestly it would give me pause too since the car won’t know the real temperature of the charge port), one option might be to attempt getting the South Korean gen 3 charge ECU. I don’t know if anyone who’s actually tried that, but in theory it should be plug and play.(I'm aware of the DIY ECS upgrade path, but I've decided not to go that route, at least not right away.)
I had been under the impression that the A2Z adapter was Canadian in origin. I looked more closely, though, and the product page includes a Canadian address for the company and a logo that specifies "proudly designed in North America." The "designed in" language is something that companies sometimes use to obscure the fact that a product, although designed one place, is being manufactured elsewhere. Thus, your hypothesis makes sense to me, and I may have been taken in by the "designed in" language when I first saw that page.Harumio told me that their aftermarket adapters come from China. Maybe where the Canadian adapters originate?
Maybe, but I've seen enough inconsistency on specs, even for one product from one company, that I wouldn't put too much faith in this. It could be the same product, but two different sellers are claiming different specs, because of miscommunication or one being more optimistic than the other. Also, as all of these products are dumb pass-through devices, the actual kW delivered depends on the car and the DC fast charger, not the adapter. Neither the car nor the adapter knows what sort of adapter you're using. If the car and fast charger negotiate too high a rate, then the adapter could be damaged -- one reason I intend to exercise caution about buying a third-party pass-through CCS1 adapter for my Tesla.You have your answer in the specs.

They definitely picture the authentic one, packaging and all. Ala Moana address, I’m sure some one will check it out. The video isn’t the best but if this is a reseller as it appears, I wouldn’t expect a great video.anyone here order a CCS adapter from this site? TESLA OEM CCS1 Charging Adapter
curious if they actually sell an authentic Tesla adapter
In their shipping and delivery section, it talks about high-end jewelry which is unrelated to the CCS adapter. I emailed them and they said it’s the original OEM one from Tesla Korea.They definitely picture the authentic one, packaging and all. Ala Moana address, I’m sure some one will check it out. The video isn’t the best but if this is a reseller as it appears, I wouldn’t expect a great video.
Hope they’re legit!
Well if this had popped up around 3 weeks ago, I'd have been able to run over there and check one out, since I also have the official Tesla adapter and would know what one looks and feels like.They definitely picture the authentic one, packaging and all.

I see what you say and I see some logic. But at the same time, being manufactured in China is not a bad thing, even Tesla’s official adapter is made in China or Taiwan. A2Z’s adapter been visible since beginning of July. They were speaking about development back then. I have seen and heard so much stories about Canadian and USA companies getting copied or cheated by suppliers in China. If they really designed it and brought an aftermarket option to the market, it’s a good thing for all of ya. If someone stole their design, copied their product or if simply their supplier cheated them, it’s another issue. I will keep supporting a North American company that’s for sure especially if they came on the market first. According to what I know, they are even working on a 250+ kW version and an adapter that does the reverse job : other ev’s to Tesla charger…I had been under the impression that the A2Z adapter was Canadian in origin.
