Hi Cor,

I guess if you are soldering I can go that way.  However I do have a
variety of crimpers.  I could go to harbor freight on my way down to get
the security drivers.  I'm free today, tomorrow and Friday.  Working
Saturday and Sunday night. These Dostar have two wires internal
connected to a switch , 152 ohm resistor.  Switch connected to the
handle trigger. Connections:  PP CH are the small ones.  L, N and FH are
the big ones.  L might be load and N the other load...or Neutral FH must
be ground.  It's in the middle.  I've only done one conversion.  It was
easy.  A simple line for line connection.  I simply bought a cord with
the J1772 plug on it.  Lawrence

Hi Lawrence,
Do you come to Silicon Valley often?
I have done at least 5 conversions AVCON => pistol and I have always
soldered the pins.
Make sure you have a soldering iron that can deliver enough heat to work
fast enough that the solder does not wick up into the wire too far.
Also, I pre-tin the wire separately, then I heat up the pin and fill the
pin's cavity about 2/3 full of molten solder, then I insert the
pre-tinned wire so all solder flows together and then I let it cool,
this avoids prolonged heating of the wire and the wicking problem.
The J1772 standard drawing has it all layed out, the switch is supposed
to already have a resistor attached and I also liked to reference the
conversion pictorial that is shown on I believe Rush's site of a
conversion.
Then the proof of the pudding is in the eating - measure the voltages on
the plug of your car and on the pistol before plugging in the first
time. Everything is referenced to ground.
In fact, I need to do one more conversion of the DS-100 that I have that
I have no pistol for, I only have a cord with attached plug but I will
keep that for other projects. So, I would need one more plug.
Do you fancy a mini Maker Fair in my garage?

   I thought the 90 dollar price of a Male connector was just too much so I 
bought 5 from China.  Doestar.  Very nice units.  I need to find out how to 
wire the internal switch.  I think it's the proximity. I thought I was so smart 
that I had star drivers to take it apart but after doing so I found in the 
connector they have the evil triangle  security screws protecting the pins.  I 
guess I'll have to go to harbor freight and buy the 100 security bits for  6 
bucks. If there is a video or internet instructions or if someone could just 
give me a few hints that would be great.  One guy soldered the connections.  I 
don't like doing that.  Heat is your enemy.  Lawrence Rhodes... I have 4 
connectors and would like 75 dollars each.
