You would also have to upgrade the pilot signal to send a 96% duty cycle signal so the EV would recognize 80 Amps was available. Pretty hefty wiring to power the EVSE too.

I am a fan of converting old Avcon EVSE to J1772. Nothing more than a new connector. Could I just upgrade the wire and contactors in just about any EVSE to harden it for higher amperage? Anybody done that yet?
