THE FORD CHARGE STATION PRO CCS1 TO NACS ADAPTER HAS ARRIVED

EV Channels Review

This video addresses a specific, yet increasingly common, problem for EV owners: charging a NACS-equipped vehicle (like a Tesla) using an AC charger with a CCS1 connector, such as the Ford Charge Station Pro or GM PowerShift charger. The reviewer highlights that standard CCS1 to NACS adapters designed for DC fast charging will not work with these AC chargers due to design differences. The primary recommendation is the A2Z Thunderstorm Lite adapter, which is specifically designed for AC charging and is deemed safe and effective, costing $97. The reviewer strongly advises against using universal AC/DC adapters due to safety concerns, including potential electrical shock and vehicle damage. The video is particularly relevant for Ford EV owners who receive the Charge Station Pro as part of Ford's Power Promise program and also own a NACS vehicle.
