    The L1 & L2 info is good but obviously DC L3 will not work because the those are CCS1 plugs!
    It plugs directly in the car which your Bolt has.
    It's a mute point of even testing the L3 with the adapter.

      Carolus, the reason why I was trying out a L3, the charging adapter I use, converts a Tesla plug, to a J1772. I was not trying to convert a CCS1 to J1772.

      @@TheAutomotiveFanatic OK that makes sense now. The J1772 only handles AC charging.

    As I understand it, for AC charging, a Tesla EVSE uses the exactly the same SAE J1772 control pilot signaling protocol - the only difference between the two standards is the shape of the plug - that's all! The manufacturers of Tesla (now "NAS") to J-1772 ("J-plug) adapters apparently don't want you to know this - because making an adapter yourself is a very easy DIY job if you can find the parts - a female Tesla receptacle, a male J-plug and a short piece of 5 conductor EVE charging cable!

      I believe you're 100% right. It's all the same protocol using different shaped connectors.

    EVgo chargers regularly fail to work. I’d have been convinced if a Tesla charger didnt work. It would have been nice to see a L2 Tesla charger attempted. That said, as Bolt owner, I found this useful.

      Bill, I have used this particular CCS spot and it worked well. I could have taken it one step future by making sure it charged my Tesla. As always, thanks for your comment and support!
