It was brief but for a minute I could fly. Now I’m back to earth.

How is 175 kW on a 150 kW charger possible? I think this number is just as wrong as many others we have seen. The only metrics that seem reasonably correct are the current rate displayed on the charger screen, and the number you can read on your vehicle with, say, EVnotifiy.

 

[LieutenantLefse]

Yeah, 7kWh in 7mins is 60kW.

 

[Skirmish]

I don’t need the numbers to be real to feel special. You guys are just jealous.

Final score

 

[Spin]

You are tied for first

 

[gorj]

If my math is correct you averaged about 84 kW. One time several weeks ago when I was down to just 40 miles of charge left I plugged in to an EA charger and it went up to 145 kW, but by 60% charge it dropped down to about 75.

we should get matching jackets.

I was in Starbucks for most of it so I never saw the screen but it was cycling from 100 to 175 then down as the curve dropped to 66 at the end but still occasionally jumping to 175. It was a fairly quick charge but I’d have to match it against a normal run to see if it was any faster when it claimed 175 or just followed a standard top run curve.

It's bullshit. I have been tracking the input into the BMS on over 30 charges from low SOC. EA is reporting 145, 160. It has never gone above 129

I checked my history and found another almost identical charge and got the same charge time within 1 second. Pretty crazy how predictable it is. Anyway, that one has a 128.25 max.

I had a similar experience:

OK, OK, I felt special yesterday too! Took a trip to Dulles Airport and stopped at the nearby EA charger, and was informed I'd reached 175. Let me bask for a few minutes before popping that bubble

We're going to need more jackets

I had a similar experience yesterday during my first stop at the only EA station in Minnesota. I saw it hit 175 kW 3-4 times during the session.

Wow you got 175kw and only gave them 4/5 stars 😂

 

[Tinman]

- 1 Star for the ambiance of a Sheetz. Prefers the always unfolding drama of a Walmart parking lot.

My last three charges have all said Max 175. I’ve watched the last two charges closely and I never actually got over 110 on either of those sessions. It’s definitely a bug in their system.

 

[NeoFrank]

I should know the answer (or maybe I’m just unwilling to believe) but is there no record of charges in the ID.4 or in CarNet?
