Free interactive buying guide

The adapter direction matters more than the product name. Identify the charger plug and the vehicle inlet to find the relevant AC charging option — or learn when you should not buy an adapter at all.

Start with the connectors

Select both options and we will explain which adapter direction to research.

Three mistakes to avoid

AC adapters are not for Superchargers

The Lectron adapters compared here are for compatible AC charging equipment, not DC fast chargers. Supercharging access and DC adapter approval depend on the vehicle manufacturer and charging network.

Connector shape is not the whole story

Confirm your exact vehicle model, year, charger, authorization requirements and adapter rating in the manufacturer documentation before purchasing.

Check what came with your car

Some vehicles already include an AC adapter. Check your glovebox and the vehicle handbook before buying a duplicate.

Understand the difference

Our existing comparison explains both connector directions with examples, safety limits and buying checks. Read the Tesla vs J1772 buying guide.
