They were replacing my bricked adapter, which they sent already, but this photo is a third adapter they sent lol. So now I have two working adapters, one I use with my bike stand, and the other for transportation. Stark is awesome they just hook you up well.Did they tell you it was coming? Did you have to ask or did the just send it to you??
OK, so the moral of the story is just ignore the colors of the conductors on the 240V NEMA 1430R male plug on our Varg chargers. The Europeans used black as ground.
As far as the 120V to 240V adapter goes, is it OK to use the orange single-piece unit?
Swank171, 120/240V adapter didn't work so you made one? Difference is polarity of white and black?
Certainly ground is ground here so the only difference would be swapping neutral white and hot black which shouldn't matter, right?
First photo here is adapter I made works fine for Alta charger, have not tried on Stark charger yet.
Second photo is a 120V plug my dealer provided, must gain access to back of charger to use.

All you really need to know is that they used black for ground, where as in the US we use green for ground.So if I cut the female plug coming out of the charger, and just want to wire a US female 110 plug on there permanently, which wires do i switch? Thanks
Same here. My plug eventually melted and Stark sent me a replacement of their new version. Much better.Check your charger wires mine were not stripped far enough to create a good contact.
