In theory only a new J1772 inlet and diode+resistor, plus an on/off switch and an additional resistor across the first one are all that is needed. However, all commercial plug in stations will provide 208 or 240V AC. So for a 120V AC input older conversion, just stick with the NEMA 5-15 plug or expect to acrry around a 240-120V transformer...

It only needs 120vac at 16 amps, or less. So far, I haven't investigated exactly what sort of charging stations the ones in town are.... which I supposed could also affect it. But.... in general, what do you need to go from the standard extension cord input to the fancy charge station? I seem to remember some discussion on this recently, but when I searched, I was only finding discussions on the opposite (charging a newer factory EV from a 240vac outlet).
