@widodh you say you're now back up to 32A. What has changed? Have Tesla fixed your car? With software or with a hardware change?
Please see this post: Reduced charging current after FW upgrade V5.6 - Page 6
That tells the whole story!

@widodh you say you're now back up to 32A. What has changed? Have Tesla fixed your car? With software or with a hardware change?
You aren't going to get more than 62A, since that's what those chargers supply (per phase), and there's no realistic way to make 75A single phase out of lower current 3-phase.
However, it's not entirely clear what in your current setup is stopping you drawing 62A: people have reported plugging Model S into those chargers and seeing it report 62A pilot which should be compatible with Roadster. My understanding is that the Can is a straight-through adapter and rated at 75A already. Your Type2->J1772 is presumably something non-standard: is it active and limiting to 32A due to connector ratings?
If the issue is down to your Type2->J1772, the challenge is mainly a mechanical one - where to obtain a 63A rated receptacle to mate with the connector on the charge point. I haven't discovered any so far - most are only 32A rated; one (expensive) option might be to trawl the Renault parts catalogue for a Zoe charge port harness.

I visited the UK with my Model S using the Ecotricity network.
My car can charge at 32A again, so I could draw 22kW at those stations now or 43kW later with the CHAdeMO adapter.
For the Roadster you could make use of 62A single-phase at those stations, but that would require some adapters which you have to make yourself.

I got it all working just fine: so I now can charge the Roadster at ecotricity's convenient motorway service points at a healthy 60A (Small mod to cable and its Type2 plug/socket ... simples and now no 32A limitations
I measured Renault zoe, i3 and other cars' sockets that take the Rapids type 2 flying female... The measurement that is missing from most specs is depth of engagement.
I had previously not got any power from rapids (but had heard of others getting 32amps).
I agree the ecotricity rapids also don't seem to sense the male plugs resistor .
Testing now with both 220 ohm and 100 ohm. However, Polar/cm do - with 220 they limit to 32amp, but not with 100 ohm.
Quick question: I see that Henry offers a can now with a type 2 connection on it. Does this remove the need for making a modified extension cable ie should an Ecotricity charger now connect direct to the can?The details about connecting Ecotricity Rapid chargers to Roadsters (which is kinda off topic here anyway) continues over at SpeakEV.com forums, Tesla Section in the UK >

I can now answer my own question: it only currently offers the U.S. model S connector which is not compatible with our type 2.Quick question: I see that Henry offers a can now with a type 2 connection on it.
