Update on my Chademo adaptor that had a firmware upgrade.
I tried the adapter at the local Safeway charging station last week, it is the Electrify America station with 3-4 CCS chargers and one Chademo and no success. If anything, the charging status ring in my charging port flashes red faster. I tried three times with three different permutations: inserting the adapter into the Chademo port and activating it and plugging it into the Tesla, and inserting the adapter into the Tesla first, and then activating my credit card and then plugging into the adaptor, and just hooking all of the damn things together and then submitting the credit card.
The charging station errors our so quickly, you really need to hook all of the components together before activating the charger. Red flashing error light, will not charge!
Anyway, will try later this week at the EVGo Chademo station at Trader Joes and see how that goes.
