Whoa. Using a J1772 with a nonstandard connection could be dangerous. Maybe I'm being too cautious. However, sooner or later, someone else could make a mistake and plug in from some other ESVE and create a disaster.

Ahhh, I should have added that my charger is a big honkin' off-board transformer. I don't want to put in in the car in order to save weight. But it does look like a J1772 port has 5 conductors. This might fit the bill.

Is your charger 110/220 volt compatible? Have you considered putting a J1772 inlet maybe where the gas cap is? There is some electronics to install behind it - a relay and a pilot signal. I suspect the hardware is for sale somewhere as I see the inlet ports are readily available for about $90 and then you could use any standard charge cable.

I'm ready to upgrade my charger connector. Right now I'm using NEMA plugs on the ends of pig tails under the hood (I have to open my hood 2x a day). My charge rate is 18A @100V (reduced to not melt said plugs). I think I need 5 connections: +100V, battery ground, +12V, chassis ground, and BMS output to turn the charger Off. I'd like for the connector to be accessible without opening the hood. What do ya'll use? Any ideas?
