Extremely cursed adapter.

[ben@bluetoot.hardill.me.uk]

@jonty Didn't @mattgrayyes build something like this recently to charge his bike?

[knud@mastodon.social]

@jonty

Now please show the wiring scheme!

[knud@mastodon.social]

@jonty

On second thought maybe don't...

[uint8_t@chaos.social]

@jonty @yvan it isn’t CCS! just the Mennekes Type2 (AC) part of the Type2 CCS

[rbairwell@mastodon.org.uk]

@jonty And there @mattgrayyes is cursing that they made their own electric car to electric bike conversion plug from scratch...

[jarkman@chaos.social]

@jonty what kind of terrifying voltage does that give you?

[barnoid@mastodon.me.uk]

@jarkman @jonty Only the usual 230V (assuming they've not connected across phases or something, but most chargers won't have multiple phases) but it can pull up to 7kW so mind your fuses

[jarkman@chaos.social]

@barnoid @jonty speed toasties!

[barnoid@mastodon.me.uk]

@jarkman The terrifying thing is that you could stick US plug in that socket

[tamonten@mstdn.social]

@jarkman @jonty Yes.

@jonty@chaos.social i love how companies on aliexpress don't stop to think if they should make an adapter from one standard to another, just that they can

[an0key@chaos.social]

@jonty that’s put Matt’s video to shame?

[lettosprey@tech.lgbt]

@jonty Oki, being aliexpress this probably does not complay to standards, but these kinda adapters are not all that unique, are they?

The car probably need to support V2L, but several do and you can get these adapters for those cars.

[lettosprey@tech.lgbt]

@jiub Several cars comes with these kinda adapters, it's does not seem all that odd... @jonty

[bhtooefr@snack.social]

@jonty@chaos.social fun thing: there's a motorcycle OEM that sells a J1772 to IEC C13 adapter for some of their older/smaller motorcycle models: https://zeromotorcycles.com/accessories/products/j1772-charging-adapter

so you could totally just plug your computer into a EVSE that way

[lettosprey@tech.lgbt]

@jiub This feels like way more of a risk-level. Adapter with protocol translator doing up to 50kW between two DC standards...

@jonty I bought something vaguely related recently although a little less cursed. My car charges from a 13A plug (basically a built in extension lead) but I'd like to be able to use public chargers.

Your device would've also worked

[jonty@chaos.social]

@lettosprey This is for use with a charger, not with a car. It is quite unusual.

[jiub@not.an.evilcyberhacker.net]

@lettosprey@tech.lgbt @jonty@chaos.social i think this is the opposite of what you're thinking of

some EVs (i've seen it on hyundai and kia at least) have an adapter that converts the CCS port on the car to an AC outlet

this converts the CCS plug on a charger to an AC outlet

that's what i've gathered by looking at the connectors https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_Charging_System

but i agree it's not very dangerous assuming it has basic electrical safety for 240V/50A or whatever the max is for L2 charging

[jernej__s@infosec.exchange]

@jonty Hey, @TechConnectify, looks like AliExpress is selling a ready-made version of that adapter you made!
