Community, I’ve tried several 3rd party CCS adapters and have had no luck getting them to work. The only setup that has worked is using an OEM Tesla CCS adapter along with an EVJECT. By the way, I only consider using non superchargers when I’m out at remote locations.. Appreciate any feedback. Thanks

I've had my eye on this one, but haven't pulled the trigger:

There is a discount code as well for it for 15% off: stateofcharge
This one has worked for me at Nissan fast chargers and ChargePoint fast chargers. The biggest issue is that it’s a tight fit on the ccs end and hard to get off. Additionally the push pin switch actuator thingy hits the truck’s charge port housing rather hard.
I also have a Lectron standard CCS adapter and EVject that I prefer to use. Just have to push in on the pin manually as you insert into the butthole.

I have this and used it several times with no issues.
Yes A2Z works it’s just a little clunky to work with. Much prefer the EVject work around with Tesla design CCS adapter.
EVject doesn’t sell anything currently except the version 2.0 “preorder” that Tesla bullied them into at least attempting. I’ll believe it when I see it. Seems to be taking too long as to make me think it’s never actually coming to market. Vaporware like the range extender that nobody talks about anymore.

I use the A2Z and I can second the tight fit. On EA stations it tends to be better than other (lesser used) stations. If a REMA cable is used... get ready to spend a few minutes trying to wiggle it off! :ROFLMAO:
