In this review the focus is on an adapter that expands charging options for J1772 vehicles at Tesla destinations. The bottom line: this NACS to J1772 adapter is for drivers who own a J1772 EV and need reliable access to Tesla wall connectors and mobile connectors, supporting up to 60A 250V charging. The reviewer found it straightforward to use, notably durable in build, and uniquely helpful for seeing charging progress thanks to the upward-facing LCD display.

Key Features

• Wide connector compatibility: Works with Tesla wall connectors, destination chargers, and mobile connectors from all generations for broad access to stations.
• Durable materials: Constructed from flame-retardant nylon and fiber materials to withstand more than 15,000 insertions and extreme temperatures from -104F to 185F.
• Informative LCD display: An upward-facing screen shows charging status in real time, removing guesswork during charging sessions.
• Compact and portable: At about 1 lb and 8.5 in long, it is easy to store in a glovebox or trunk for on-the-road use.
• Station access: Enables access to over 15,500 locations where Tesla connectors are installed, increasing usable charging options for J1772 vehicles.

Who It's For

This adapter is best for owners of J1772-equipped EVs from brands like Ford, Chevrolet, Volkswagen, Volvo, Toyota, BMW, Audi, Rivian, Mercedes-Benz, and similar who want to use Tesla wall or destination chargers at higher Level 2 current levels. It fits drivers who value a rugged, portable adapter with a readable status display.

It is not appropriate for drivers who need DC fast charging: it does not support Tesla Superchargers or any Level 3 charging stations, and it is explicitly not suitable for certain vehicles such as Tesla vehicles themselves, Jeep Wrangler 4XE, BMW i5, or Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid. Buyers seeking Level 3 charging capability should look elsewhere.
