[EVDL] Chevy Bolt charge times with a level 3 charger

2017-05-21 Thread Larry Gales via EV
Does anyone know the realistic charging time for the Bolt using a level 3 charger? Say, the time to 80% charge and the time to 100% charge? I have heard that the charging rate for the Bolt is rather slow but I have not heard any details. Thanks, -- Larry Gales -- next part

Paul, Were you charging Leaf or Bolt? I charged my Leaf twice at EMW's CHAdeMO fast charger which can go up to 120A And I too noticed that after a short initial max power charge, it starts to taper. I had my LeafSpy Pro display the cell voltages and it is easy to see that the reason That the Leaf

When people talk of performance EVs, they usually forget about performance charging. I have always had a keen interest in quick charging even in the old (90's) days of PbSO4. I had 6 chargers on-board with their output tied in parallel. With all of them on I could push 22+kW into my pack (I had

Paul, Maybe they confused "balanced" and "stiffened"? I don't know as I did not read the Tesla driver's experience as there was no link provided. As far as I know, the Tesla has ~24V modules (blades) with 6 series connected herds of round cells (approx 6-7 dozen in parallel) and the BMS only has

This reminds me of a case in Law, i.e., IBM vs Fed Gov: where IBM would not sell their machines to a customer; they would only lease them for an ongoing charge per month so they could maintain complete control of the machines. The courts ruled against IBM and required they also sell the machines;

I don't know what stiffen the pack means. Sounds made up. I did watch my car charge on a chademo charger though. I had 15 miles range showing when it started. It said 27 minutes to charge. It started at 100 amps. After about 8 minutes I was up to a 60% charge and it was charging at 48 amps. It
