Adapting Ford Charge Pro 80Amp for J1772-Only EVs

[ragozinom]

So I’ve got a Ford Charge Station Pro 80Amp, but it only has a J1772/CCS input. The thing is, I’ve got a J1772-only EV (23 Lightning) that I need to charge. I was thinking of using a J1772/CCS to NACS adapter, and then a NACS to J1772 adapter to make it all work.

Is this a safe and feasible setup, or am I totally off base here? I’ve been looking for a direct J1772/CCS to J1772 adapter, but can’t find anything. Any advice or experience with this setup would be appreciated. TY

You need to use a J-1772 extension cord, but you also need to put some plastic on the input end so plugging in the FCSP is possible. Though, this is not good practice...

I know what you mean. My last EV used that J1772 plug, so I didn't need any extra stuff. If I could find one of those adapters, I'd totally buy it.

Keep in mind that you willl also need to modify the plastic on the stacked adapter, and a CCS to Tesla adapter won’t work for this.
