Abstract: A portable electric vehicle charger with adjustable current provides a versatile, safe, and efficient charging solution for electric vehicles. Intermittent current control and protection device (IC-CPD) automatically detect input voltage and adjusts charging currents for both Level 1 (120V) and Level 2 (240V) power sources. Embodiments include interchangeable NEMA plug cables for flexible use, supporting current adjustments from 8 A to 40 A. A temperature sensor may monitor the charging process, reducing current to prevent overheating and automatically resuming once safe conditions are restored. Wi-Fi connectivity provides remotely control and monitor charging via a mobile app.

Abstract: A cross-standard electric vehicle (EV) charging adapter enables compatibility between different EV charging standards, including allowing CCS1-equipped vehicles to access the North American Charging Standard (NACS) network, which includes the Tesla Supercharger network. By enabling cross-standard charging compatibility, the limitations of existing charging infrastructure are overcome, enhancing accessibility and convenience for all EV owners. The adapter supports high-power charging up to 500 kW, ensuring rapid and efficient charging for a wide range of electric vehicles. An advanced temperature control system to prevent overheating and an interlock mechanism may ensure secure connections. A durable, compact design that simplifies manufacturing while maintaining reliability and safety is provided.
