147 - The 80% Episode

This is episode 147 of EV Musings a podcast about renewables, electric vehicles and things that are interesting to electric vehicle owners.

On the show today we’re doing some educating and talking about what happens when you stay on a rapid charger when it’s gone beyond 80% state of charge.

Charging above this rate usually involves throttling which slows down the charge. So what are the circumstances under which you should stay on a charger when it's charging slowly, and when should you consider getting off and freeing the unit up for others?

This season of the podcast is sponsored by Zap-Map, the free to download app that helps EV drivers search, plan, and pay for their charging.
