I really like this thing. I am able to keep the batter up on heavy use days.
Used to be on a busy day I wouldrive up to 100 miles, plug the car in with a very low battery and it would have to charge a good portion of the night.
Now I can drive up to 120 miles in a day, the battery will still have some charge left and have it charged back to 90% usually in around an hour.
Or only about 2 hours if the battery is really low.
The charger power peaks at 8.1kw as it approaches 90%.
If the battery voltage is really low, 360 volts, or 20% SOC it's only hitting about 7kw. Because the charger output is limited to 20 amps.
