Can you source your statement that fast charging reduces lifetime?

I‘m not sure if fast charging degrades batteries. Just read somewhere an article stating that fast charging initially - first charge - boosts the overall capacity of the batterie due to chemical reactions that do not occur that long at anodes.

The issue with fast charging was the thermal management - it’s getting to hot. This is managed by good battery management and a different packaging of cells nowadays. I think fast charging isn’t an issue anymore. Can’t provide you a link or such, it’s what I gathered through serveral podcasts.

In recent test of a German auto club they found out that it‘s cheaper/ more effective to charger faster. You loose a lot of energy if you load slow over hours.

This energy is taken by the electricity of the car. So, while charging the car is on and takes some Watts. There are just a few brands that have decoupled the charger circuit from the overall electric circuit of the car.

Can’t find the article now, but I think charging a PHEV through a standard power plug had about 20% energy lost. It was clearly visible that a charger is a good choice.

You‘ll loose

  • ~10-30% AC 2.3kw Standard Power Plug
  • ~ 5-10% DC 11kw Wallbox
  • Internal car electronics are crucial: Is the loading circuit de-coupled or the entire car On?
  • Temperature or pre-heating the battery before loading reduces losses at DC charging

My first typing was a game into C64 using machine code. Game magazines at that time dedicated a few pages with lines of hex numbers for games. After typing 4 pages you had a game.

Unfortunately, I‘ve got my data tape recorder two month later for xmas. And mom was nervous about keeping the power on for days. I entered those numbers quite some times. Load„*“,8,1

You are not inside your brain. That’s an outdated concept. You are your entire body.

How clever your cat is. Look at you, you pee into a box and you live in a box.

Good question. You might ask Lupus

Biggest difference between the two groups? The skin color...

I know it is only anecdotal but to me it was noticeable.

Interesting. For me, the biggest difference between both was the value and rights a woman has in their culture.

Edit: Let’s write it more clearly. It is how they treat woman.
