Given that LTO (Lithium Titanate or Li4Ti5O12) cells are capable (apparently) of taking a 90% charge in 10 minutes, I was wondering if anyone had heard if the ChaDeMo standard - or CCS, for that matter - had an alternative charge profile available to take advantage of this higher rate of charge compared to the 'standard' 80% in 30 minutes it currently uses? Seems a shame that if the ChaDeMo can put out 120A at 300V the i-Miev (and Honda Fit) can't make the most of it.
Also, anyone with the ear of Vince Dale (ecotricity) knows if there are any plans to increase the number of ChaDeMo chargers at any of their existing sites yet? South Mimms seems like a good place to start. It'd be interesting to have access to statistical data regarding peak use times so one could avoid having to queue as I have had to twice now.
