I converted a very inexpensive Tesla Universal Mobile Connector (UMC) to a J1772 plug for my Chevy Bolt or any non-Tesla EV. The UMC is an awesome electric car charger and I couldn't resist the opportunity to build a custom one. If you are interested in one of these, please contact me at [email protected]. I would love to discuss.
