Fully Charged in Just 6 Minutes – Groundbreaking Technique Could Revolutionize EV Charging
(scitechdaily.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
To add in something else, I stop about every 2-3 hours and most stops take like 15-20 mins. You don't ever charge to full. Most of the time you're going from 20-30% up to 60-70%. It's very fast to charge up to 60-70% but starts slowing down as you reach full.
When I do roadtrips I start at 4-5am, make my first stop breakfast, next stop is a bathroom break of sorts, following one is lunch, next is to stretch legs, and then maybe one for a dinner or late-afternoon snack if the hotel doesn't have a charger. This has been a reliable plan for up to a 600mi drive in one day.
Most of the time -- like the breakfast and lunch stops -- the car is done charging well before I'm done. Because it takes time to wait in line to place an order, get food, eat, go to the bathroom. The other times where I need an extra few minutes to charge? I just walk around.
Every time I roadtrip now I feel very refreshed and not exhausted at all by time I arrive. Perhaps some of it's autopilot.
