Bookmark or Share- Using Nissan Leaf charger | Tesla Motors ClubThe Nissan EVSE is a dumb charging station, i.e., no intelligence for things like scheduling, multi-unit communication, no WiFi, no usage reporting. So a pretty simple and flawless unit since all of the intelligence features are in all of the vehicles anyway. The J1772 nozzle works perfectly with the LEAF and Ioniq5.
- Home charging vs Petrol station | Tesla Motors ClubAs long as you’re not in a hurry. 8 hours to home charge, 5 mins to fill up at a petrol station. And that’s assuming of course you have access to home charging facilities at all. I now sense a definite move to install more electric chargers in car parks but prices are ridiculous and the bays just sit empty 99% of the time.
- Charging at non-Tesla charging stations | Tesla Motors ClubTry another CCS1 charging station, like one with EA. Third party stations are notorious for being down and unable to charge. Or ask someone else to try your adapter. Just noticed you have a third party adapter; so it may be that I have and use a Tesla adapter with no issues.
- how do i pick a charging station? | Tesla Motors ClubWhile it is true that V3 Superchargers can charge at 250kW charging rate this charging rate is only possible for ~5 minutes before the charging amperage, kW charging rate starts to taper down. In practical use a V2 Supercharger at 150kW maximum charging rate is almost as quick.
- Can I charge My Tesla at the supercharger every time to 100% or not?Level 1 = charging at 120VAC; what you typically have in your home; Level 2 = charging at 240VAC (or 208V at some locations); again, what you have in your home to power larger appliances like ovens and dryers. DC Fast Charger = a charging station which provides DC power to your vehicle. Also sometimes called Level 3 or noted as DCFC.
