I installed carscanner at 60% charge, since i remembered i have the obd2 with me and was running out of ideas as of why it was stuck at the same charge speed. Will try to track it the next time from start. And also try a Tesla charger. But what i take from this is i cannot have control over...

The speeds i am getting are 60 to 70 kW as if i plugged in at 65%, even though i plugged in at 26% and 45%. Based on Fastned, at 26% i should be charging at well over 100kW.

I watched that one, thanks. It is a model with a smaller battery pack but i think same chemistry so it should be comparable for charging speed. I will rewatch it to see if i missed something, but he did drive it with battery heating on all the time as well. Well, that was in another video from...

So, both times i was under 60%, the first one even at 26%, 1 hour of intelligent battery heating and driving for 2 hours before the stop. Or are you saying that i need to start charging with less than 20% in the first place to reach 100+ kW speeds? I sure hope that is not the case, otherwise...

Last few days i am trying Ionity to see how it goes. So far i had only two charge sessions, both of which went less than optimally. Before this, if I charge at a DC FC I did not focus on speed, it was colder, I did not preheat, etc. I tried two different Ionity locations, both times claiming...

Will do

This i hadn't thought of, will try it, thanks!

I think the only time the car would be off while we are not at our several accomodations, would be while charging, so for about 30 minutes to an hour. I hope it is not gonna warm up too much inside of the fridge. Is it a fridge you recommend?

It is, but i will have at least 40% of the trunk filled up with gifts (clothes or rigid odd shaped things) that we will haul the entire trip to gift to family members. It's just how the family on my partner's side are and is non-negotiable. Will get one then. Should i look for something...

This is super helpful, i will for sure use it. Never thought to disconnect them unless i pull out the shelf to make room for the seasonal tire change. Thanks!

Here are some questions i have open, that maybe someone can share some knowledge on: Do you guys recommend using a fridge? Something compact since there is no space to begin with. Main things would be sliced meat/cheese for some quick sandwiches. Also, maybe a coolbox that fits somewhere that...

Is there some road trip app that can gather that data with minimal input from me? Would be nice to not rely on Google maps tracking me. But i did Google maps plus gather all the charge invoices for a previous similar trip. If i can input it into a generic tool i don't mind sharing most of that...

I also got an email from Ionity about their prices being lowered by a subscription. I used it only as a last resort last year because the prices were i think 79 or 89 cents per kw. I preferred Tesla, but the Tesla chargers were usually further away from the highway. Looking at ABRP with now...

That is quite a nice trip. Did you take the ferry between Denmark and Germany or drive a bit longer? I only took the ferry once thinking it saves some hours driving but it cost close to 300 Eur in both directions.

That is the case in the Netherlands. I often choose to fast charge at a Tesla charger because even without a subscription it costs 39 cents per kw and no parking. On my street i have to pay parking plus 34 cents per kw at one cheap AC charger or at the same street i have an expensive charger at...
