EVHIKING CCS1 to CCS2 EV Charger Adapter — Black, DC 1000V/400A & AC 250V/32A, Automatic Mode Switching

EVHIKING CCS1 to CCS2 adapter converts CCS1 and J1772 (Type 1) charger plugs into a CCS2-compatible inlet, supporting up to DC 1000V/400A and AC 250V/32A for reliable cross-region charging.

Built to let European electric vehicles charge from North American public chargers and home stations, this adapter automatically detects and switches between DC CCS1 and AC Type 1/J1772 charging guns. It uses silver-plated guide pins to improve conductivity and reduce heat buildup, and includes an impact-resistant carry case for secure transport and storage. The adapter also monitors temperature and pauses charging if safety thresholds are exceeded.

How does the adapter handle both DC fast charging and AC charging?

The EVHIKING adapter is engineered to accept CCS1 DC and J1772/Type 1 AC plugs and present them as a CCS2 interface to the vehicle. Internal circuitry and connectors are rated for high current and automatic switching so the correct charging mode is used without manual configuration.

• DC capability: up to 1000V and 400A for high-power fast charging.
• AC capability: up to 250V and 32A for Level 2 charging where available.
• Automatic detection and mode switching between DC CCS1 and AC Type 1/J1772.
• Silver-plated guide pins for improved conductivity and reduced heating.

What safety features protect the adapter and my vehicle during charging?

This adapter includes temperature monitoring and built-in protections that pause charging if temperatures exceed set limits. When the internal temperature rises above 85°C the adapter will interrupt charging; charging will resume only after temperature falls below approximately 65°C and the vehicle accepts the charging signal again.

• Real-time temperature detection to prevent overheating.
• Automatic pause and resume behavior tied to safe temperature thresholds.
• Durable materials and silver-plated pins reduce thermal stress under load.
• Operating temperature range: -30°C to 50°C for broad environmental use.

How do I connect and use the adapter correctly?

Proper seating of the charging plug is essential for a secure connection and safe operation. Insert the charging gun fully to the bottom of the adapter before initiating a charging session to ensure correct electrical contact and communication between the charger and vehicle.

• Insert the charger gun fully to the end of the adapter before starting charging.
• Verify that the plug is snug and latched as required by the charging station.
• If temperature protection activates, remove and reinsert if needed or wait for the vehicle to re-establish the charging signal.
• Store the adapter in the supplied impact-resistant box when not in use.

What build quality and accessories are included with the EVHIKING adapter?

The adapter is built for heavy use with enhanced conductivity and durability features, and it ships with a robust protective case for transport and storage. Silver-plated guide pins reduce resistance and wear, while the case protects the unit from impacts during travel or daily carry.

• Silver-plated guide pins for longevity and improved electrical performance.
• Impact-resistant, heavy-duty storage box included for protection.
• Robust housing and rated components for high-current applications.
• Designed to bridge European vehicle inlets with U.S. charger standards.

Who is this for: EVHIKING's CCS1 to CCS2 adapter is intended for drivers of European-market EVs who need to charge from North American CCS1 and J1772/Type 1 charging infrastructure. It’s suitable for frequent travelers, owners who use public DC fast chargers and Level 2 AC stations, and anyone who wants a rugged, high-current adapter with temperature safeguards and secure storage for regular use.
