    Hi,

    It looks like Saturday and Sunday sunrise will be perfect weather for another set of benchmarks:
    • 25 mph - without head lights, close enough to sunrise
    • 50 mph - without head lights
    • 75 mph - " " "
    I will also make some compare and contrast photos:
    • CHAdeMO
    • CCS-1
    • J1772
    • Tesla
    I don't have a small scale to measure weight but can do that on another trip.

    IF I have time, I may do a 'pulse and glide' vs 'cruise control' benchmark. Using my 2019 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus in 'standard' acceleration mode for six, opposite direction, same road runs:
    • Pulse and Glide protocol:
      • Use "N" to glide to the low speed, 25 or 30 mph.
      • Use "cruse control" to accelerate to the pulse speed, 50 mph.
      • Measure "end-to-end" speed.
    • Cruise control protocol:
      • Set to "end-to-end" speed.

    To used the circular benchmark route, I used 45 mph. A 50 mph benchmark would require bidirectional passes. The ZIP file has the OpenOffice spreadsheet.
