    DC Fast Charging, with timer set

    I normally charge at home and have the timer set to start at 11 PM and end at 7 PM. When fast charging say at noon, do I have to turn the timer off, or can I push the charge button on the key fob when it says connecting to the car?

    Why do EV's not follow a CCCV charge?

    I'm seeing a lot on the internet about CCCV charging, but when I look at car batteries most curves don't seem to follow CCCV. Is this because CCCV is only for longevity and car batteries are manufactured in between safe margins? Thanks in advance :)

To make things harder we even fitted it with a roof box. Our videos can be seen on facebook and on Instagram @watts_eup...

    IONIQ can charge 50% faster at high-power charging stations

    Most of the DC fast-chargers that aren't made by Tesla have, until recently, topped out at a 50 kW discharge rate. Now, Fastned, a charging station company, has hooked the IONIQ up to one of its 175 kW units. It can't of course, take advantage of all that juice, but it can handle enough of the...

    Anybody has any idea of what happened with the Obama administration plan to establish 48 new “charging corridors” on major highways across 35 states? The plan was supposed that they would have been installed in 2017. We live in Houston Texas where there are about 20 Combo Chargers, but if you...
