@cornbinder89, thanks a lot for your advice...I am happy that you can express yourself in that way....This has gone on for 5 pages, you've heard from all that say it will work, you've heard from many people with JDM cars that say it will work. A label may fall off, be missing because someone had the thing apart, and cleaned the case aggressively.
I think it is time for you to either take the advice given or walk away from the car, and look for a car that does have the label so you can feel better.
Nothing else can be done for you and no amount of fretting over it is going to change anything. Either plug the damn thing into the power you have or sell the car!
The J1772 socket is not just a shape but an engineering standard. Just as power sockets around the world must be configured in a manor that matches the power provided, the J1772 standard means it must meet the standard.
Enough already!
Everybody said that it could work or I think it will work and no one said that I am convinced (just go with closed eyes) because I came across something which is exactly as yours. As you are a "professional" in the field, I am sure that you will have done that damn thing. I am a novice in the field and just asking people/professional if they came across such a situation and can advise me.
I have got good advice and even some people have taken their time to send me pictures/videos. I appreciate that a lot btw (even YOU gave me some advice )
So, as you said, enough already, just note that you are not forced to give me advices or help me in one way or the other...
I would like to inform you, that even I am tired of that situation. However, it's my car and I don't want it to be out of use (it's not a question of feeling better as you pointed out) for any such reason.
Also, I am in a small country where I haven't come across a JDM leaf. Otherwise, I would have stopped the driver on the road and ask to see if I can find that label on the OBC...and would have not started that thread at all..
