Hi there,
I'm sorry if this has been asked before, I did a search and couldn't find the answer.
There is a chance that I will be charging my Leaf through a 13 amp socket - this isn't as bad as it sounds as I am a Brit so we have more power going through our normal domestic sockets. However, I remember reading somewhere that if you use 13 Amp sockets you cannot use the timed charge.
This seems odd to me as surely this is just a matter of the onboard charger accepting or refusing the connection.
My worries are that we won't be able to time it for off-peak energy costs and that each time the car will charge to 100% rather than 80%.
Anyone have any experience of this?
