how are you getting 8 kwh? Do you have a third charger? How do you go about wiring something like that? It requires 2 j1772 plugs, doesn't it?
Would it be better to get TC chargers now, or if I can find diginows would those be the better option? (considering they aren't made or supported anymore)
On my SR, I use two 3.3 KW Elcons plus the OBC that is around 1.3KW. So 3.3+3.3+1.3=7.9 KW.
For my DS, I use two larger, heavier but less powerful (older design) 2.5 KW units. 2.5+2.5+1.3=6.3KW.
I wired my external chargers direct to the battery contacts of the motor controller.
I only take the Elcons for longer trips where I will need a charge.
Sometimes it requires two J-plugs for 8KW, but often not. There are several high power J-stations around these days. But most of the ChargePoint stations can only handle 6.3 KW per side, so then I hog up both.
I can adjust my power manually as I can overload SOME J-stations since I do not use the pilot signal.
See here and read the several messages after it.
BTW, I think it's kinda neat that I can charge my Zero SR at a higher rate than most cars can accept on an AC charge. I have deliberately overloaded a Chargepoint once just to see what will happen. It shutdown and reset by itself in about 30 seconds and sent me an e-mail that I am drawing excessive power which made the station shut down.
"Dear Donald,The station at which your vehicle is charging, DC CORRIDOR / COLFAX D&D L2, has detected that your Vehicle is drawing more current than the station's rating, and has suspended charging to prevent the circuit breaker from tripping. This typically indicates an issue with configuration of the vehicle or an issue with the battery management system on the vehicle. Please contact the manufacturer of the vehicle if you receive this notification again.Team ChargePoint"I enjoyed getting that message!
