I gather (from Plugshare) that most AU Level 2 public EVSEs are either tethered J1772 or a Type 2 (Mennekes) socket. In the former case, a simple J1772 (Type 1) to Mennekes (Type 2) converter would work fine. You could make one yourself for AU$200 and no degree in rocket science required. In the latter case an equally simple Type 2 to Type 1 cable would be equally fine and still cost about $AU 200 (eg www.EVBitz.uk!).
