CCS-2 adapter in Europe is 170 euro or ~$200.
Hi I am the owner of Tesla Model X in Korea. Finally, we succeded in developing a dc combo adapter. The maximum speed is about 80~120kw, and since it is still in the sample stage, the speed was about 61kw.
If you have any question please comment
What is manufacture date of your Model X ?Hi I am the owner of Tesla Model X in Korea. Finally, we succeded in developing a dc combo adapter. The maximum speed is about 80~120kw, and since it is still in the sample stage, the speed was about 61kw.

If this product comes to fruition... you could always get a CCS2 to CCS1 adapter. European to US CCS Combo 2 to CCS Combo 1 EV Quick Charger Adapter – EVSE AdaptersMainly interested to hear if they had to convert to CCS talk or the car natively understood CCS. However based on the size of the thing and the previous passive adapters seen for US->EU I think there's some electronic stuff going on there, especially since they're using it on a model x.
Given that the passive adapters work up to ~120kW or so I wonder if they put in the data/signal to cap the power, even if the car itself says I can go much higher. They would probably need to do this to prevent a 350kW charger from overloading for a model 3, which can get close to ~190kW.
And this is out there, but I wonder if they could make a CCS2 variant as special order for imported cars into Europe from US. (Niche market though so unlikely).
I am really interested in the project but now that I see examples I am somewhat worried about the strain this is going to put on the charging 'port'...Just saw this post on the FaceBook Model 3 forum:
Welcome from Korea! Do you know anything about the CCS1 to Tesla charging adapter coming from your country? A few days ago there were photos posted on another forum, and a lot of people in North America are excited about it!

You mean this? Yes, i'm aware of the development. The actual building of it is done in China, and is being funded by an on-line forum group in Korea. As of now he's been able to successfully charge the S and the X but not the 3. He's currently on the 2nd/3rd sample units, and so far max speed achieved has been 77kWh on the S & X. (Theoretically it should be able to reach around 120kWh but it's more important to get compatibility of all the different modems used on various chargers) Engineers on it have also determined that in order for them to implement Model 3 compatibility will require additional H/W. Currently awaiting sample #4 to test. With chademos being slowly replaced by CCS, Tesla should be doing the developing but since they have no plans... brave souls here have put up $150K of their own money to do it.

Could they dona chademo to ccs as an easier conversion, then just daisy chain the 2 converters?
Would be nice if they got their units right. Charging speed is measured in kW, not kWh.He's currently on the 2nd/3rd sample units, and so far max speed achieved has been 77kWh on the S & X.

Sure, but it beats most public J1772 charging, which is usually only 30 amps max, so charging rates are usually just 6 to 7.2 kW, and on the lower end if the supply voltage is 208 volts (common for US commercial power).50kW is painfully slow when you are used to supercharger speeds so ideally they skip the chademo adapter.

In the 3 SR+ you taper to 60kW pretty quickly, especially in cooler weather. If it's otherwise a 15+ minute round trip detour to a supercharger, even the lowly chademo adapter is quite competitive. If this CCS adapter can manage >75kW and Tesla gives it the green light (or at a bare minimum promises not to brick it with a software update), I am all over it.50kW is painfully slow when you are used to supercharger speeds so ideally they skip the chademo adapter.

Don't forget about busy days when the supercharger has a 5+ car line... if there's a competitively priced CHAdeMO nearby I'll head there (Webasto network I'm looking at you). But it would be a lame bottleneck for a CCS adapter.In the 3 SR+ you taper to 60kW pretty quickly, especially in cooler weather.
