Tesla Supercharger to CCS1 Adapter 500A ⚡

This NACS to CCS1 adapter lets CCS1 electric vehicles use Tesla Supercharger stations for faster and wider charging access. The Tesla Supercharger to CCS1 adapter supports high current charging up to what the manufacturer states is 500 A and 1,000 V, allowing rapid replenishment of driving range for compatible CCS EVs, according to the manufacturer. This makes long trips more convenient when Superchargers are available along your route.

Key Points

The adapter expands charging access by enabling non-Tesla CCS1 vehicles to connect to many V3 and V4 Tesla Superchargers, increasing options on major highways and in urban areas. Connectivity is straightforward, with a plug-and-play approach where you attach the adapter to the vehicle port and then to the Supercharger cable, which helps simplify the charging routine. Note that charge speeds depend on the Supercharger version and the vehicle’s onboard charging capability, and the adapter currently requires vehicle support for the Tesla Supercharger protocol.

Technical Specifications

• Name: FOCSPROD Upgraded NACS to CCS1 Adapter
• Maximum current: 500 A.
• Maximum voltage: 1000 V.
• Reported fast-charge rate: up to 150 miles in 15 minutes, according to the manufacturer.
• Supported standards: NACS input to CCS1 output for CCS-enabled EVs.

Usage Recommendations

Before using the adapter, verify vehicle compatibility with your manufacturer to confirm support for the Tesla Supercharger protocol. When connecting, ensure both the adapter and vehicle port are clean and undamaged to maintain a secure electrical connection. For charging sessions, monitor vehicle telemetry or the instrument panel to confirm that the session is delivering the expected current. The adapter is intended for high-power DC fast charging at Superchargers and is not compatible with level 1 or level 2 AC chargers.

🔌 For some makes like Ford, GM, and Rivian, this adapter can enable Supercharger access once the vehicle supports the required protocol update. ⚡ For other brands including Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Kia, Mazda, MINI, Nissan, Porsche, Stellantis brands, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Honda, the adapter is currently not compatible according to the product notes. Consider that firmware or protocol requirements may change over time and that features may depend on manufacturer updates.

Positive Aspects

The main advantage of this adapter is broader access to Tesla Supercharger infrastructure for CCS1 EV drivers, which can reduce detours to find compatible fast chargers. The design emphasizes simple connect and disconnect operations to speed up turnover at charging stalls. A practical nuance is that actual charging performance varies with Supercharger hardware, vehicle limitations, and any required vehicle updates, so peak rates may not always be achieved.
