Thank you, Roland and others.

In hunting around on the internet I came across the RV plug adapters with a
NEMA 14-50 receptacle on one end so I decided to go with the NEMA 14-50
plug pigtail that OpenEVSE has on their site. I then picked up an RV
adapter with a 14-50 receptacle on one end and L14-30 on the other end. I
removed the L14-30 and installed the L6-30. I figured that since all my
adapters were for 30A or smaller circuits that there is no reason to have a
all the adapters with a 14-50 on one end. I know this means one more
connection in the mix unless I'm plugging into a L6-30 outlet but I won't
be drawing any more than 24A on them anyway.

BTW, I discovered that the RV 14-50 to TT-30 adapter ties both hot legs of
the 14-50 together. I'm really glad I did a test of the adapter before I
cut off the end! I guess RVs don't have 240V appliances, that or they
simply don't operate since they see 0V leg to leg. No wonder RVs can get
away with the TT-30 & 5-15 adapter to 14-50 and claim 45 Amps "of power".
