Tesla to J1772 Adapter

[bkleaf]

I'm looking at purchasing this tesla to j1772 adapter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TP ... HFSB&psc=1

It's 50amps ... they also make an 80amp version... My question is what is the maximum Ampage the Nissan Leaf 2019 can take? Should I get the 50amp or 80amp version? They also make a 40amp version...

30A is all you need.

Oh, really? not 50? is it that small of a difference between them?

[LeftieBiker]

I just looked through the 2019 owner's manual, and I see no onboard charger spec. I'm assuming that it remains 6.6kw, or 27.5 amp.

We have one. Works well. 50 amp is the biggest a leaf needs. (Technically a Leaf can pull max 27 ish amps).

40 amp, actually, but 50 is a more common breaker size.

How does one do the math. I was just going with 27.5 amps x 240volts = 6.6KW

Does this work? Can you use the Tesla non-supercharge stations?

Yep. Depending on wether it is a first or second generation Tesla wall charger the connection can take up to 30 seconds as the handshake is done with the adapter. We have used ours maybe 8 to 10 times now. Never not had success.

We keep ours on that little compartment in the back where the inflator is.
