EV: 2015 Nissan LEAF S (6.6 kw onboard charger)
Current charging setup
Portable EVSE: Zencar (Duosida) L2, 16a, 14-30p (with adapter)
Mode 2 EV Charging Cable
Type: 3030-PSE-16-7.5AC-AS

Output: 110-220V AC 16AMPS 50/60Hz

Work Receptacle: 14-50r, 50a circuit
Desired charging setup
Same Portable EVSE: Zencar (Duosida) L2, 16a, rewired to 14-50p with $11 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08GY3WMKF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Questions for the forum:
1. Can my portable EVSE spec support both 120v and 240v charging?
2. Given my current and desired charging setup, will this configuration work?
3. Given that the NEMA 14-50 supports 240/120v, can I also charge on 120v with $13 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08PMJB14V/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=A26OASPQYU1JXQ&psc=1 ?

Work Receptacle: 14-50r, 50a circuit
Reasons for this approach:
- Prioritizing a least cost approach to replace 14-30p on portable EVSE with 14-50p rather than spending another $200+ on a new portable EVSE
- Standardize receptacle between Home and Work locations with 240v / 50a circuit
- Eventually will want to install a 40a wall mounted EVSE at home with 14-50p
