@jonty i love how companies on aliexpress don't stop to think if they should make an adapter from one standard to another, just that they can

@jiub Several cars comes with these kinda adapters, it's does not seem all that odd... @jonty

@lettosprey @jonty i think this is the opposite of what you're thinking of

some EVs (i've seen it on hyundai and kia at least) have an adapter that converts the CCS port on the car to an AC outlet

this converts the CCS plug on a charger to an AC outlet

that's what i've gathered by looking at the connectors https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_Charging_System

but i agree it's not very dangerous assuming it has basic electrical safety for 240V/50A or whatever the max is for L2 charging

@jiub This is not a CCS plug, though, it is a type-2 plug. CCS has to extra pins for DC, this does not.

A type 2 socket can provide most anything as long as the plug gives the correct control signal. So mimicing a regular outlet should not be all that tricky.
