Hi Cor,
I guess if you are soldering I can go that way.  However I do have a variety of 
crimpers.  I could go to harbor freight on my way down to get the security 
drivers.  I'm free today, tomorrow and Friday.  Working Saturday and Sunday 
night. These Dostar have two wires internal  connected to a switch , 152 ohm 
resistor.  Switch connected to the handle trigger. Connections:  PP CH are the 
small ones.  L, N and FH are the big ones.  L might be load and N the other 
load...or Neutral FH must be ground.  It's in the middle.  I've only done one 
conversion.  It was easy.  A simple line for line connection.  I simply bought 
a cord with the J1772 plug on it.  Lawrence

Hi Lawrence,
Do you come to Silicon Valley often?
I have done at least 5 conversions AVCON => pistol and I have always soldered 
the pins.
Make sure you have a soldering iron that can deliver enough heat to work fast 
enough that the solder does not wick up into the wire too far.
Also, I pre-tin the wire separately, then I heat up the pin and fill the pin's 
cavity about 2/3 full of molten solder, then I insert the pre-tinned wire so 
all solder flows together and then I let it cool, this avoids prolonged heating 
of the wire and the wicking problem.
The J1772 standard drawing has it all layed out, the switch is supposed to 
already have a resistor attached and I also liked to reference the conversion 
pictorial that is shown on I believe Rush's site of a conversion.
Then the proof of the pudding is in the eating - measure the voltages on the 
plug of your car and on the pistol before plugging in the first time. 
Everything is referenced to ground.
In fact, I need to do one more conversion of the DS-100 that I have that I have 
no pistol for, I only have a cord with attached plug but I will keep that for 
other projects. So, I would need one more plug.
Do you fancy a mini Maker Fair in my garage?
