Yes, it is the Tesla CCS adapter. They are now somehow obtaining them without needing you own login credentials or VIN. Nobody knows exactly how they are getting them, how much longer they can keep them available, or when Tesla will finally start selling them directly in North America.

CCS Adapter - ?

Yes the adapter was in Tesla packaging. Looks legit to me. They used to require log in credentials, but not anymore.
Yes, it's OEM. They are a proxy service where they provide a Korean address for a Korean vendor, in this case Tesla Korea, and then they ship it to you. My wife uses a similar service to buy beauty products.
They current do not require login credentials from you any more. A few weeks ago, they posted on these boards asking for a donor/volunteer to provide credentials. I think the post was deleted. I assume they found somebody either locally here or there to act as donor.
Man, my DHL package never deliver yesterday and tracking still listed as "Shipment is out with courier for delivery" since yesterday 12:21pm PDT. Try to call DHL this morning but the center is close till Monday...well well well. Maybe they will deliver today (does DHL deliver on Sat?) or I need to call back on Monday...
Anyone ever experience something like this before, I rarely have shipment from DHL so not much experience with them. If it is FedEx or UPS, I know what to do...
I've already release the signature portion couple days ago but how can you make arrangement to redirect to a DHL dropbox location (online? Calling?)?

Appreciate the quick responses. I decided to place an order. I suspect this will come to an end in short order.
It was an option on the tracking info page
You should be getting text updates which should link you to that page
DHL apparently does not deliver on weekends in the USA. I sometimes have this issue with FedEx or UPS where it’s said to be out on the truck but they fail to deliver it. I think they over-commit and sometimes the drivers just run out of time and can’t deliver everything. They should automatically try to deliver it again on Monday.
Thanks to all of you who recommended Harumio. I ordered my CCS1 adapter from them, and they were a pleasure to work with on the purchase. Excellent customer service all around. The adapter arrived and I paid WAAAAY less than other 3rd party companies were charging for theirs. Works great!! I highly and unreservedly recommend Harumio. VelkySyr

The only option for me on the tracking page is to waive the signature (which I did), there is no option for me to hold it at the nearby dropbox location...
Anyway, I will wait for Monday. Thanks

mine was delivered on a Sunday and left at my door without signature. I dint recall waiving one either, but my neighborhood is pretty safe so I was happy it was waiting for me

With the prices of Tesla Supercharging nearing the price of the other networks, now might be the time to purchase the CCS adapter. Some of the chargers that were $.27~$.32 are now raised to $.48~$.52 -- (good thing I charge 90% of the time at home.)
Maybe Tesla is going to be opening up their network to non-Tesla car sooner than we think.

Watching one of Kyle Connor's videos the other day (he was driving a Rivian on a long road trip). He basically stated that the amount of charge you'll get from an EA station will be dependent on the guts of the machine (yeah, he said lots more. Too many numbers for my limited understanding of electricity to take in!). So, even at a 350kW EA station if plugged in with your CCS adapter you might max out at either around 130kW or around 180kW.

So the ID4 EA free plan works free still? Can't wait to get my adapter to give this a try too!I freaking knew it!!
I freaking knew it!!
It also looks like Harumio redesigned the case to add a spot for the standard Tesla J1772 Level 2 adapter alongside the Tesla CCS adapter. Nice feature, but it looks like it makes the case maybe 3 inches wider than the previous version. Harumio currently sells the case for $45 (worldwide shipping included) or $25 if purchased with the CCS adapter.
