Q: Is the CPCADA0008 compatible with my Nissan Leaf, Kia Soul EV, or Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV?
A: Yes. The ChargePapa Smart-Link CPCADA0008 is compatible with all vehicles equipped with a CHAdeMO DC fast charging port, including the Nissan Leaf ZE0 (2011–2017), Nissan Leaf ZE1 (2018–2022), Nissan e-NV200, Kia Soul EV (2014–2019), Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV (2012–2021), Mitsubishi i-MiEV, Peugeot Partner Electric, and Citroën Berlingo Electric. It supports up to 250A input from CCS2 (IEC 62196-3 — International Electrotechnical Commission Combo 2) charging stations, fully covering CHAdeMO 1.2 vehicles at up to 100kW.
Q: What is the maximum charging speed with the ChargePapa Smart-Link CPCADA0008?
A: The ChargePapa Smart-Link CPCADA0008 is rated at 250A and fully supports CHAdeMO 1.2 (200A × 500V = 100kW maximum). For CHAdeMO 1.0 vehicles such as the Nissan Leaf ZE0 and Kia Soul EV, charging is limited to 62.5kW (125A × 500V) by the vehicle’s onboard charger. Actual speed depends on both the vehicle’s CHAdeMO version and the CCS2 station’s rated output.
Q: How does the CPCADA0008 compare to a standard passive CCS2-to-CHAdeMO adapter?
A: Compared to standard passive CCS2-to-CHAdeMO adapters, the ChargePapa Smart-Link CPCADA0008 features an active protocol converter that translates PLC (IEC 62196-3 CCS2 communication standard) to CAN Bus (CHAdeMO vehicle communication standard) in real-time. Passive adapters cannot perform this handshake and will fail to initiate charging on modern CCS2 stations. The Smart-Link is rated at 250A — sufficient to support CHAdeMO 1.2 at full 100kW — and includes USB-C firmware upgradability for long-term compatibility.
Q: Is the CPCADA0008 compatible with the Tesla Cybertruck or other Tesla vehicles?
A: No. The ChargePapa Smart-Link CPCADA0008 outputs to CHAdeMO and is not compatible with the Tesla Cybertruck, Model S, Model 3, Model X, or Model Y. Tesla vehicles in North America use the NACS (SAE J3400 — Society of Automotive Engineers J3400) connector, and Tesla vehicles in Europe use CCS2 (IEC 62196-3) — neither of which is a CHAdeMO port. This adapter is for CHAdeMO-port vehicles only.
Q: Has the CPCADA0008 passed CE certification, and what does IP54 mean?
A: Yes. The ChargePapa Smart-Link CPCADA0008 carries CE (Conformité Européenne) certification, confirming compliance with European Union health, safety, and environmental protection directives. IP54 means the adapter is protected against dust ingress and water splashing from any direction — per IEC 60529 (International Electrotechnical Commission ingress protection standard) — making it suitable for outdoor charging in typical weather conditions.
Q: What is the SKU, and which CHAdeMO versions does the Smart-Link CPCADA0008 support?
A: The SKU is CPCADA0008. The ChargePapa Smart-Link accepts CCS2 (IEC 62196-3 — International Electrotechnical Commission Combined Charging System Combo 2) on the charger input side, and outputs to CHAdeMO on the vehicle side. It supports CHAdeMO 1.0 (up to 62.5kW) and CHAdeMO 1.2 (up to 100kW / 200A). The adapter is rated at 250A to provide headroom above the CHAdeMO 1.2 maximum. CE certified and IP54 rated. Firmware upgradeable via USB-C port.

⚠️ Critical Usage Note
This adapter is designed for CHAdeMO-port vehicles only. Do not use with CCS1 (SAE J1772 Combo), CCS2 (IEC 62196-3), Tesla NACS (SAE J3400), or GB/T port vehicles. Do not exceed rated operating limits (500V DC / 250A). Actual charging speed is determined by your vehicle’s CHAdeMO version. Inspect before each use — do not use if housing is cracked or contacts are damaged. Ensure connectors are fully seated before initiating a charging session. Powered directly by the charging station — no internal battery.
