Abstract
A wireless-charging adapter is connectable to a direct current (DC) fast charger and includes an induction coil for wireless charging a second induction coil on a vehicle. In some instances, the adapter may include an electrical connector to mate with a DC fast charger. In addition, the adapter may include hardware and/or software to receive a DC from the DC fast charger and provide an alternating current (AC) to the induction coil. The induction coil of the adapter may be positioned (e.g., on a ground surface) to align with an induction coil on a vehicle.
