Are there J1772 equipped charging stations where you charge?

I believe using an adaptor is the way to go, but did not realize this was a issue. I thought all charging stations had Shuko sockets.

This was not meant as a product advertisement - just as a check if I should create a new thread about it. I will make some photos when I assemble it and put them in a separate thread.

The main reason for me is really to have more opportunities to choose from with regards to EVSEs when/if the Th!nk EVSE collapses. If this works, looks solid, is not too bulky and is available for a reasonable price - I'm in

Think made design for three different charger inlets:

Device Names    Manufacturer     Part Number     Description
A40                    LEWDEN LEV      499                 CHARGE INLET LEWDEN
A40B1               FCI                   F344700          CHARGE INLET FCI, CAP RH
A40B                  Yazaki               7325-8646-3W  CHARGE INLET Yazaki, CAP RH

The attached wiring diagram shows how they should be connect to the PCU respectively.

The Lewden connector (A40) is the original "blue" installed in most cars.
Without having tested or done deep-study, I think both Yazaki and FCI-connector would do fine for the Think:

EDIT: Please note that the attached drawing with pin-mapping is valid for Gen2-PCU.
To retrofit an A40B-type connector at Gen1 PCU, the PCU-connector A13.C (7pin) is used:
- Pilot Signal (CP) -> G/7
- AC_line_gnd (PE) -> C/7
- AC_line_L2 (L2/N) ->B/7
- AC_line_L1  (L1) -> A/7

- AC_out_gnd (D/7) -> BMI X1 6/6 (PE)
- AC_out_L1 (F/7) -> BMI X1 4/6 (L1)
- AC_out_L2 (E/7) -> BMI X1 2/6 (L2/N)

And PCU-connector A13.B (24-pin):
- On_plug_detect_low (PD) -> 21/24
(other side of plug-detect-switch is grounded to detect plug)

In my new house there is a J1772 box on the wall that is networked to the house control systems and can also be controlled via an app.

Any EVSE will charge the Think. You just need to fit the Lewden plug to it.

I provide both portable and semiportable solutions for both Think, and the other EV's. Have even purpose build a dual system catering for both type of cars.
