Kyle - start gigging charging sites for not putting a roof over chargers. We could see 20 gas pumps under a well-lit roof in your background. Those cars are only there for 5 minutes, and they get to get out of the rain. I was standing in a flash flood in OK in an inch of water pouring along the Walmart parking lot in front of the EA chargers holding a 350 KW cable thinking there'd be nothing left but my shoes. Start pushing these guys to get the EV chargers out of the weather, and (hey) maybe under some SOLAR PANELS!!!!!

6%, more than 1 out of 20 new vehicles sold are electric, which is 3x the rate it was in 2020, just 2 years ago. Now maybe some chargers weren't that busy, but I've heard a lot of chatter about busy chargers breaking, and not getting repaired quickly. Chargers need to be available, make money, and they need to work reliably. We are way past the"OG Baker electric", the golf carts of the "oil shocks", and even the 75 mile first gen lithium based EVs. Tesla is great, but not everything is a Tesla. Somebody with 250 mile range and 100kw charging should not struggle to get around.

I love that you say size the charger for the location. My rule of thumb has always been that it should be able to charge 50% of the battery pack size in the amount of time a typical person spends at that same location not in an electric car. So in a shopping center, a 30-60kW might be fine if people spend 1-2 hours there anyway. But at a C-Store where people spend 15-20 minutes usually, a 350kW would be better. Restaurants also make a 50kW make sense. 11.5kW for charging at offices.

These charger’s definitely need a canopy , maybe with solar panels on the roof as others have suggested. Not only would it keep you dry and out of the summer sun, it would provide solar for the charge site and keep the cables a bit cooler and out of direct sunlight. However, it does make me wonder if the end game is to convert some if not all the gas pumps to electric and bingo the canopy is already in place!

@Tomaskom Жыл бұрын

The power sharing is usually not limited by software, but by the power delivery modules of the charger. For example Alpitronic that I use a lot has 75kW modules, so the split is done in these increments only (75/150/225/300kW). Quite clear as they have 75, 150 and 300kW chargers. If that ABB has 90kW modules, you get just 90/90 split, if it's 45kW, it would be more adaptable. I remember one of your videos with some company that hat 20kW bricks which I loved for this exact reason 🙂

We have had them out here in the Southwest for a while. Circle K has really nice locations, they are usually clean, and have a nice selection of snacks and even some hot foods, Hot dogs, and Pizza.

Crazy how many Tesla chargers are way out in a parking lot and very sketchy to walk to the nearest store. BTW have not been to a Circle K since I bought my Tesla Model 3 five years ago. While I will never buy pizza from a gas station, unless it is a Wawa, I would buy coffee, etc.

@patrickmay8261 Жыл бұрын

With gas pumps you'll have to pull them all out and the local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction, i.e. city or county) will probably require everything associated with the fueling system pulled out. You can't have these chargers within 25' of a gas pump. And I would assume that the AHJ would say that would included the length of the charging cable. So the difference would be the 25' plus the cable length to the charger.

I love this 180kw ABB charger, it should be the industry standard. It makes so many things right! - long spring loaded cable - connectors in the front, at low height easy accessible to short and handicapped people. Also easy for those in a wheelchair. - the same applies to the screen and payment machine. - No apps and no create account hassle - decent charging rates. - easy, quickly and simple. To be perfect it only needs to also allow payment by cash in the cashier and also allows to insert phone number to receive notifications.

I'm starting to see the up-and-coming Freewire DCFC chargers at AM/PM gas stations in my area (Pacific NW).

@ab-tf5fl Жыл бұрын

Yes - I live in the Pacific Northwest and tried one out last week. It was extremely nice to be able to just hop right off I-5, plug in, charge, and get out. I was able to pay just like Kyle did, by simply tapping a credit card on the card reader - no wasting time downloading and configuring apps. Much better than driving through a busy WalMart parking lot to charge at a nearby EA, and also cheaper ($0.35/kWh vs. $0.48/kWh). The only downsides of the freewire charger I visited is that the power is limited to 75 kW and it can only charge two vehicles at a time. When I went, neither were an issue - the site was empty, and I drive a Bolt, which can't go much beyond 50 kW anyway. But, I could definitely see this site becoming chronically full as drivers start figuring it out, and being forced to go back to the EA WalMart to avoid waiting in line. Also worth noting, many people assume that when a Bolt plugs into a charger, it's going to be stuck there for 45 minutes, but that doesn't have to be the case. In my case, I just needed a few extra kWh so I could make it home with 12% rather than 2%, which would be too dangerous. The entire charging session took all of just 10 minutes, most of which was spent using the restroom, which I'd be doing anyway in a gas car.

Good, lets see some covered parking at those chargers, trash cans, windshield washing supplies etc. I couldn't agree more. The real money isn't made on gasoline or charging, it is in the convenience store that the money is made. This should be a no brainer. They will need to have some pull throughs for the towing and large vehicle applications. Convenient just off highway easy access sites would be fantastic. They should offer an option to "pay inside" at the charger so you can go in buy everything you need inside and pay in whatever payment method you want including cash.
