    You guys did a wonderful job on the casket. Nice touch incorporating the horseshoes. Thanks for sharing.

    My condolences on the loss of your father. What an honor to make a custom casket in his memory. No hurry for my UMC...I appreciate your offer to mod these. Thanks.

    While the new price for the J1772 plug is great...I made a purchase before the price cut. I will package up the components and ship them this weekend. Any estimate on turn around? My wife and I drove to South Lake Tahoe this weekend and took advantage of the EV charging stations at Harvey's...

    I'm interested in UMC mod if you are still accepting orders.

    If removed and wired to ModS EVSE, will the J1772 plug on the stock EVSE handle 40a loads?

    I am pleased with how efficient this one trip for the CS-60, UMC and the RAV4 turned out. We purchased from Hayward Autonation. I was truly impressed with the price negotiation and purchase process. My wife and I were in and out within 1.5 hours, including the test drive and review of...

    Understand now...no worries. I will come up to speed shortly with all the great info provided in this forum. Thanks. I should have the CC CS-60 and Model S UMC before picking up the RAV4 today. Once I order and install the 70a J1772 plug on UMC, I should be set for now.

    Where did you find one? I'd like to get one, and a local (Bay Area) pickup would be great. I have looked but have not found one yet for reasonable cost (< $1000). I may have spoke too soon, having difficulty making contact. Private party sale $725...nothing in quantity. Sorry.

    Tesla model S UMC with J1772 & JESLA(tm) conversion

    I very well may be confused...new to the EV technology. My thought was to use the Tesla model S UMC with a modified vehicle side connector swapped to a 70a J1772. The Tesla input plug (connected to charger) remains the same sin use of any adapters. Is it correct that some Model S were built...

    Tesla model S UMC with J1772 & JESLA(tm) conversion

    I will keep a close eye on the temp while charging. Can I use the Tesla model S UMC with J1772 connector setup to provide safe RAV4 charging at Tesla stations? Or, will the supercharger voltage fry my vehicle? Do you have to be a Tesla club "member" to use their chargers? Found a CC CS-60 in...

    A 70A J1772 plug only can be purchased from TucsonEV for $155 http://tucsonev.com/index.html, but delivery time is my immediate issue. Waidy - Thanks for the warning on the adapter. Is there a way to test the adapter to determine whether luck will play a role in charging safety and reliability?

    I plan to swing by the Tesla factory service center in Fremont for the UMC and adapters before the dealer. However, obtaining a 70a J1772 plug from TucsonEV or another source prior is not feasible. Does anyone in the bay area have a "spare" 70a plug for sale?

    Thanks for the clarification. I plan to purchase the Model S UMC ($480) plus 14-50, 5-15, and 10-30 adapters ($45 each) from the factory service center tomorrow. Then the J1772 plug for a little cord modification. Seems like a very flexible and portable 40A charging solution for $615 and...
