30 minute wait.... if you are lucky. Tesla's own site shows 75 minutes to full charge, and that's if you are using their latest cars/batteries with their own "super charger" stations, and further assumes your batteries are relatively new. As those batteries age you would get less "fuel" in that 75 minutes, so now you are driving say 20% fewer miles on the same charge which in turn increases your downtime (more frequent refueling for less miles driven). ..... and that's the ROSY picture as many electric vehicles claim 3+ hours to fully charged (refueled) and that's for a brand new car. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105775 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
