Aftermarket NACS Adapters - best recommendations?

[Bushwood CC]

I’m tired of waiting for the Tesla adapter that’s free and never shows up. I saw an earlier post that recommended 2 but I can’t find the thread anymore. Can anyone make a suggestion? Thanks.

A2ZEV’s Typhoon Pro or Lectron Vortex also. Stay away from the cheaper knockoffs.

I just got my replacement Typhoon Pro from A2Z. Comparing it with the "free" Ford adapter and the original Typhoon adapter. I wholeheartedly recommend the Typhoon Pro. Of all the adapters I've seen, it seems to be the best built and most ergonomic to attach/detach from both side. Plus the company has been outstanding with this silly recall that has been forced on them.

Stay tuned. Someone will post a discount code for the A2Z adapters.

Many folks here have that adapter and it serves them well.

A2Z Typhoon Pro adapter. It is better built than the Tesla adapter and the company truly stands behind its products.

Watching Tom’s State of Charge Video, sounds like you could swing by a Nissan Dealership and order their “kit” for the Aria and get it next day or a few days and have the Tesla adapter.

I’m the new owner of a 2022 lightning. Ford online store has been sold out obviously. This conversation really helps! Going to check into this Nissan thing and then move onto the Typhoon Pro.
I would love to have the Ford issued one, but it seems like it is impossible.

THIS! Typhoon Pro is definitely better than the others

+1 for A2Z Typhoon Pro. One in each vehicle. Both flawless.

The adapter produced by Tesla is so janky that I wouldn't pay actual cash money for it.
As a FREE adapter, sure, fine, but it's not well made and feels like Tesla squeezed every last penny of margin out of it. Heck, it doesn't even come with a protective case.

A2ZEV makes the Typhoon Pro adapter for Tesla SuperChargers. It sells for $185.00. They also sell the Stellar adapter, which is for Tesla Destination chargers (such as hotels, private homes). It sells for $109. If you buy both, you get a package discount - $266.75 vs. $294. They are currently shipping quickly. I have both adapters and have used both many times. They work great. https://a2zevshop.com/products/nacs-ccs1?ref=Typhoon&variant=43186507579592

I ordered the A2Z typhoon pro And the Tesla destination a few months ago. I have nothing to compare it to yet, but the pro seems very solid and I have used it a couple times with no issues. I have not used the destination charger yet. One of the things I really like is that they come with a case so I just keep them in my net in my frunk.

I would say A2Z, TeslaTap > Lectron, OEMs. From what I've read, not from experience. I've only tried the OEM one once.

I just watched this video. I can't believe the size and cost of the CHAdeMO adapter for the Leaf. Glad I don't need this thing.

Just think of the adapter envy though
