I am wondering, if the both Ukrainian and Korean adaptors are just bypassing the currents from charger to vehicle, then shouldn't they be able to support both AC and DC charging? It's up to the communication between vehicle and charger to decide on which mode they operate, just like TPC can be used for both AC and DC charging. If Ukrainian and Korean adaptors can sustain high voltage/current from DC charging, there's no reason why it cannot operate under AC.

The adapters have no connection to the J1772 AC pins. And if they did it would be a shock hazard as the AC would be live on the exposed DC pins under the J1772, top portion of the CCS1, connector.
Absolutely right, it is not 3d printed at all and it is of fabric quality. 3d easily melts.
I suppose they could be, but neither existing adapter comes with such a cover. (Or the AC pins.) Someone would have to design, and produce, a different adapter.
It is already done. Ukrainian adapter is not the only one. Successfully use such universal adapter.

I just sent @harumio an inquiry to get this purchase started. It'll be nice to have more options on trips

Thanks for the help on this. So far Haurmio has been easy to deal with. My CCS1 adapter has been shipped from Tesla to you. Thanks for helping us out with getting the adapters into the states.Hi Harumio here,
We saw some traffic to our site coming from here, so we registered an account to engage directly and get some feedback and suggestions.
To answer a few questions,
1. Our pricing might differ from Google exchange rate because Google uses mid-market rate, which is significantly "cheaper" than what PayPal / Credit card companies actually charge us. We could offer a US bank wire transfer option but that's usually reserved for bulk orders of 10 adapters and above.
2. Based on our past experience, there shouldn't be any tax/duties for USA customers but Canada would probably have taxes/duties.
3. If there's demand for it, we can organize a group buy but a member of the community would need to offer their Tesla account in order for us to purchase the adapters.
If there's any questions, please feel free to ask.
Thank you!

Just to give you all a time frame... Sent Harumio an email on the 18th. Paid on that date, and Tesla Confirmed the order on the 20th, By last night Harumio had said it was shipping. DHL informed me that delivery will be on Wednesday to California. That's pretty impressive.
(DHL is already in possession of the package, confimred)

If you are in the US you may able to buy th part in Tesla service center directly, according to other people in the US did this before. Cheap and faster than find this part here.

Interesting. I do not live near a service center but maybe they would ship it to me? I might go ahead and schedule an appointment in the app and see…

Late to the party on this thread but I am in too if we are starting a group order. Please feel free to send me a PM
I just got one from my local service center - 1 day turn around as they shipped it in from another local service center. If they don't stock, they told me easy to order.
For those that have completed this mod and entered into service mode, are there any error messages showing? And issues with the PCS (power conversion system) afterward?

The official Tesla CCS1 adapter is rated for max 300 amps. If the M3 voltage is 350 amps, then my calculation tells me the max kW when using the adapter would be 105. Is that correct?
No, it doesn't seem to actually limit to 300 amps if the station can serve up more. I think somebody reported getting up to 215 kW with a Plaid, pulling nearly 500 amps:
