Thanks for this data on charging time. Sparky has told me that, when charging to 100%, somewhere beyond 80% SOC the charging switches to a pulsed mode, so the average charge rate declines. Is it possible for you to measure this extra time?mwalsh said:Here's >> me charging at work.>>> This is 3-phase 208v, so charging is a hair slower than plugging into 240v at home (my figures say 60 minutes per bar @ 208v vs. ~53 minutes per bar @ 240v).
I have trips planned where I would first charge to 100% at home, and then top-off at a Nissan dealer about 13 mi (about 2 bars) down the road. It would be very helpful to know how much time I need to allow for that last 20%. I realize the answer to this would be different for the modified L1/L2 at 12A,240V, modified L1/L2 at 12A, 208V, and the AV L2 at 15A,240V. Just measuring this final charge time for one of these cases that is convenient for you would be helpful. Thanks.
