I did the same thing to my 2020 when it was new and it died at 65.2 Kw used.

Here in NC and Virginia, they have shutdown virtually all their stations. On PlugShare they have posted messages saying they are “upgrading the site to improve performance “. Any idea what the heck they are doing. Nice they did it right before Labor Day as in many cases they were the only...

Once I had an Electrify America station in Emporia VA charge in the low 50’s for about 20 minutes before dialing back.

Back on the question of 100% versus something less. I have had my Bolt for two years and always use HTR except when I am leaving the next day for a long trip. Yesterday I was in MD and did a 100% charge in the early afternoon so I could get home. As I was pulling out from the hotel something...

Forgive those of us outside California if we laugh at this. In most parts of the country outside of metro areas, level 3 chargers can be few and far between. The entire state of West Virginia has none. From my perspective, EA is filling in holes along major interstates so now, for example, I...

We travel between Raleigh and DC occasionally and I wish EVgo would install some chargers around Richmond. The Richmond market has about 10 DCFC, two are Chevy dealers (with about 20kwh capacity) and the rest are Greenlots, of the eight Greenlots, one is working. The others have been broken...

That loss of kw threw me for a loop. When I got the car back it showed it was fully charged so I figured they must have plunged it in while doing the service. I drove off the lot and in 16 miles home had used 14 KW according to the main screen :shock: :shock: . I turned around and went...

I did mine a few weeks ago and got the credit for my 2017 Bolt.

I have to wonder how today’s batteries would handle this high level charging. Can they cool the batteries enough? I also wonder about the impact on longevity.

Your right, those more powerful chargers will be a game changer for long distance traveling. In my mind, right now long distance traveling, while possible is not really the niche for current EV’s. I have had my Bolt five months and outside of a trial run with EVgo (to make sure it worked), I...

Ideally it should display the time limit on the charging screen when you are charging, I have only used it once and can’t recall if it said anything. I actually charged for 50 minutes but was only charged for 31.

It’s on the EVgo website plan pages where it states “ sessions are limited to 30 minutes”. Again, a little preparation is helpful before showing up at a charger.

I used EVgo for the first time today, worked fine but I had done the research and had everything ready including an EVgo card. The charger actually charged for 50 minutes but I only got charged for 31. I was 40% when I started and 65% when it stopped. Worked great in my trial run. Don’t...

My bolt stays between 20-60% as I use free public charging. I have a level 2 charger at home but so far am not using it. Does the battery living in that range create any concerns? What about cell balancing. Thanks
