Nope, at the time of my comment I was just looking at what's available from the Nissan configure/build page. Nissan states that you use "the same plug as your home dryer", which led me to believe it's a 14-30p, but I since learned (from other posts in here / other social media) it's a 14-50p (which seems a bit disingenuous and even dangerous to suggest you should plug into a dryer outlet).EVDRIVER said:Do you have a link that references different adapters other than a 14-50 and 120V? I have not seen any other reference to other adapters for dryers, etc.
I also learned that it comes with a 5-15p adapter that looks rather clunky, and may include some sort of temperature sensing circuitry. Presumably there's no adjustability at all, and the sticker on the unit says it pulls 30 amps. The 120V adapter may somehow signal to reduce the pilot to 12 amps, or maybe the unit just signals 12 amps when it internally detects a 120V supply. Or maybe the pilot always just signals 30 amps and it's expected that the Leaf (or whatever EV you're using it with) just won't pull more than 12 amps on 120V...
In short, lots of unanswered questions remain!
