Time to start bugging Tesla bout a Frankenplug adapter... With 2 of these live within driving distance to me (and no Superchargers...), I'd rather have this than a CHAdeMO adapter...
These stations are dual standard (both CHAdeMO and CCS). See the company's blog.Good news ZBB, these stations are CHAdeMO, not frankenplug. So as soon as Tesla gets the CHADeMO adapter produced, you will be able to use them. No reason to hope for a Frankenplug adapter when there's only 1 frankenplug station in the whole US right now (per other posts on TMC).

There are at least 3 public CCS stations in the US (including these two goE3 stations in AZ and the evGO one in CA) and 4 others at car manufacturer locations (with the VW one in CA likely open to public usage). And I don't know how many times it's been repeated but there will be 200 installed in CA as part of the NRG settlement. SMUD in Sacramento also said they will install a bunch.
ZBB is saying given the choice between the two adapters, he would choose CCS over CHAdeMO (I would do the same).
I know it is not CCS (AKA SAE Combo) enabled, but I know it's almost trivial to enable it once there are cars that can use them (at least that's what goE3 has said in press releases).These are not CCS currently but will be able to have these adapters eventually.
Given similar charging infrastructure, I would prefer CCS simply because Tesla's connector is so similar. Tesla already said the protocol was 100% compatible, so all that's missing is some rewiring in the adapter (similar to the current J1772 adapter). That means it'll likely be much simpler/smaller/less expensive for essentially the same capabilities (I'm even assuming there will be few 100kW CCS stations and that almost all CCS stations will be dual connector 50kW stations).Is it the charging speed advantage of the SAE combo over CHAdeMo or why would you prefer it right now? I'd like to see both available, but it will be several years before SAE catches up to current CHAdeMO infrastructure in most regions. Give me a CHAdeMO for quick in-town charge now, and I'll take the SAE in 1-2 years when it's ready.
... the current CHAdeMO lead doesn't mean much to me (2-3 years later when I actually get the car, I imagine CCS will have a much stronger hold).
