Perfect for Integrating a Non-Tesla EV with a Tesla Wall Connector!
By TK Cape Cod on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2025
We recently added a 2025 Mercedes GLC 350e to our household, and we already had a Tesla wall connector installed in our garage. Instead of going through the hassle and expense of installing a separate J1772 charger, we decided to try the Lectron Tesla to J1772 EV Charging Adapter.I'm happy to report that it works flawlessly! We simply plug the Lectron adapter into our Tesla wall connector, and then plug the Mercedes into the J1772 port on the adapter. It's that easy.The adapter feels well-built and sturdy. It fits snugly into both the Tesla connector and the Mercedes charging port, giving me confidence in a secure connection. Charging has been consistent and reliable, with no issues whatsoever.This adapter has saved us significant time and money. It's a fantastic solution for anyone with a Tesla wall connector who needs to charge a non-Tesla EV. Highly recommended!

Overheats after 1 month, Tesla support team knows about Lectron issues.
By SSR on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2024
First ever 1 star review I've felt the need to post, in hopes of sparing someone else. Bought the Lectron adapter for my Porsche Taycan 4S because it appeared to be the best adapter available (clean branding, higher price point, plenty of orders, etc) but that was a huge mistake. The adapter worked for about 10 uses, then I started getting an overheating warning on both my car's charging port and on the Gen 3 Tesla Wall Charger as well. The car would charge properly for about an hour, but as time progresses the adapter heats up and charging kWh slows down from 8.8 to about 2 before it eventually quits due to overheating.I spent 3 full days troubleshooting, and I'm a pretty resourceful person. From verifying that both the Porsche and Wall Charger are up to date, to ensuring that my 50 amp breaker has a max output of 40 amps, to even putting the Tesla Charger into "Compatibility Mode" which is designed to work for non-Tesla vehicles - nothing worked. After speaking with a representative from the Tesla Wall Charger support team, they were able to tell me first hand that Lectron complaints have skyrocketed on their end and that the higher ups are aware and actively trying to figure out a solution to this. They said something is off between the communication between the Tesla Charger and the adapter itself.Other details important to note: Lectron has not responded to my voicemail and 3 calls I've left them over the last 2 weeks. I also noticed they have dropped the price on this exact product over the last couple of weeks. Perhaps they are finally experiencing the impact of a inadequate product.My solution: I returned the product and ordered a replacement adapter. I won't be saying the replacement's brand name because this is not intended to be a shoutout to another competitor. I will say that this replacement is LESS money, rated at 80 amps instead of 48, and has zero issues reported to the Tesla Wall Connector Support Team, whereas Lectron had several issues reported.Do not buy this product. It could have caused serious damage to my tesla wall charger, my rather expensive car, or worse, it could have burned down my house!
