If I am not mistaken your charger would just need to connect and negotiate the power level with J1772 charging station in a fully automatic fashion. A circuit similar to this would have to be added to your charger - Modular EV Power It would handshake your charger to a J1772 charging station, and determine charging current Level needed.

Let me know what you think ???

Hey Mark,

I did really want to add J1772 to my charger, but was unsure of how many people wanted it. Well 2 is enough to convince me. (You and Myself)

I will be getting back to this project soon. Im just trying to get the 1000A controller finished up.
