Tesla Level 2 Home Charger to 2025 Air

KOB-TX · Mar 17, 2025

Took delivery of '25 Air this weekend - will our garage mounted Tesla level 2 charger work on the Air?
Does anyone have experience with this? What adapters from NACS to CCS have you had success with?

Thx for help!

I use a Lectron NACS-J1772. (Not the Vortex, that won't work). It works fine at 32 Amps, about 35MPH.

I have a Tesla Wall Charger and bought this adapter in January 2022 (currently unavailable) from Amazon when we replaced the Model 3 with an Ioniq 5: Tesla to J1772 EV Charger Adapter

The Tesla charger was purchased in 2019 when I got my Model 3. At first the charger wouldn't work with the I5, and googling I discovered there is a dip switch inside the charger which needs to be changed from "Tesla" to "Legacy" and then it worked, and has been since, and works perfectly with our Lucid Air Touring

Possible that newer Tesla Wall Chargers do not need the switch change.

I bought a TeslaTap back in the early days when they had fit issues. That's been fixed, but many more high-quality and less expensive alternatives exist now. I'd buy an 80-amp adapter from either A2Z or Lectron. I do not have direct experience with either company's adapters, but A2Z and Lectron seem to be the quality leaders in the US:

I plan on using the Tesla Universal Wall charger which comes with CCS and NACs for my Air lease and then Gravity. I think the new one is all software configured on the app as far as allowing all OEMs and then changing the amp limits.

Been using a TeslaTap for a couple of years now with no issues (I think I got the revised / fixed version)

I think that the more costly Lectron NACS to J1772 adapter works reliably at 48A with the Air as does the TeslaTap adapter.

I used my old Tesla wall adapter with TeslaTap adapter for over a year before I upgraded to the Lucid wall adapter... worked fine. should have left it at that. purchased the Lucid adapter because it was going to support car to home backup... never happened... SO, just buy the adapter and use the old Tesla level 2 wall adapter.

Another new ‘25 owner here coming from a Tesla with gen 3 L2 charger in the garage. I bought the Lectron adaptor and it works great although after a while the charger throttles down to about 8 kw from the standard 11.5 and I get the 3 blinking red lights at the top of the wall charger. Not a huge deal though. It works.

How hot does the Lectron adapter get? The Tesla charging handle? Something is overheating, not good.

Not very hot. I had an issue about 5 years ago when the gen 3 Tesla wall charger came out and a bunch of units were defective and overheating. In that situation the cable was actually bubbled and deformed. Nothing like that here. I should also say I’m using a Tesla extension cable and then the Lectron adaptor. More variables than I’d like but trying to avoid buying a whole new wall charger.

New Touring owner here as well with a Tesla Gen 3 Wall charger. I ordered the new Lectron NACS to J1772 adapter and it just arrived today. Car is charging at the same speeds as my Model S did - about 11kw at 48A.

As for heat, it’s been charging almost an hour and the Tesla handle is warmer than the Lectron which was very cool. The heat on the Tesla handle is what is normally feel

Question: For those with the Tesla Gen 3 Wall Chargers, do you leave the adapter plugged into the NACS handle when not in use? I notice the wall charger shows the blue light indicating “waiting for vehicle to accept charge” when attached to Lectron but not plugged into the car. Normally it’s a solid green when idle and not connected. Perhaps this doesn’t matter but curious.

I usually unplug it when not ready to charge.

Another new Touring owner with a Tesla wall connector from 2019. I bought an adapter from Schumacher on Amazon. It works well with no heat and seems very durable.

I live in Texas and the summer heat in my garage coupled with the heat that emanates from the car while charging would trip my Tesla Level 2 charger. I backed the amps on the charger itself down to 40 amps and used a 50 amp breaker. A little slower, but I didn't want to burn my guest house down, again!
