As a Dutchman i'm honoured Ginny loves our cheese, however it makes me a bit sad to see her with a Edam flavoured Babybel cheese, which is just as Dutch as a Renault, Peugeot or Citroën car. (Hint... all of these including the cheese are French)

You forgot to mention that you need to get a parking ticket to use any of the chargers at Oxford. Your first hour is free but you still need to get a ticket so the number plate recognition system does not send you a fine through the post.

That's totally fair. If you are shopping for the day, you can plug into a slow charger and pay for parking, whereas fast chargers who will leave within 30 mins or so don't pay a parking fee on top.

I’ve been to the Oxford chargers twice (on both occasions staying around 35 mins) and didn’t get a ticket. I couldn’t see any cameras on entry - was I just lucky or do the cameras only look at the parking spaces (and not the rapids)?

I’m confused. Why does using a Kia EV6 slow things down with a 45 minute max charge if they have a faster charging rate? Is it because you have 300kW shared? I’m not sure that was explained well. Is it just me?

You're not alone! I am also confused, when it should be able to charge much faster than the other cars.

@@aaravshah2288 Bc the EV6 with it's charge rate capability will drop the distribution to fellow EV riders. Nevertheless, it's advisable if you have enough EV charge spots, not to charge your EV next to an other EV, but rather take the next charger.. ( 2 EV's charging via same EV station will lower the charge speed...)

@@aaravshah2288 (most cars can't do 300kw anyway 70-120kw on newer cars less on older cars) and if the car that's first plugged in is less then 25-30% charge the second charger will likely be suspended until the first car charges past 25-30% (roughly), it's how the ones near me function on motaways services

Good review how is excess for disabled drivers?

Plug and charge works on the enyaq if it has the v3.0 software. I expect the ID4 will be the same

Please can we have one of these charging stations half way between Perth and Inverness on the A9 complete with toilets as the current infrastructure is dire. I take it this will work with the Chargeplace Scotland RFID card.

Please explain why fast charging cars are a problem with the 45 min time limit?

The Hamilton one is tucked away behind a supermarket in some woods. Not ideal if you're charging at night and want to feel safe.

You mention that with FastNed Ultra Rapid Chargers it is possible to charge two cars simultaneously. With others such as Gridserve there seems to be no way to tell if a charger with two outlets can do this. Is there any way to tell in advance without plugging in beside another charging vehicle, only to be told that insufficient power is available?

Yes you can charge 2 cars at once at Fastned

Fastned uses a propriatary System for Plug and charge by scanning the cars mac-adress. The official (ISO) Plug and Charge is of course supported by VW/Audi/Skoda. The question here is why is Fastned not using the official Plug and charge.

48p Kwh now, but I have no home charging so I'm a gold member.

I hope someone picked up the screw seen on the floor at 4:25.

Ya never get more than 85kw ish from the London orbital ones. Good chargers though. Beware the Oxford chargers need to have a parking permit over the hour, the car park machine’s behind the chargers at the bus station.

That’s likely because you haven’t been starting to charge from a lower percentage. The fuller the battery, the slower the charging speed.

This explanation is really more difficult than using Fastned 🤔

Vehicles can have the same ‘unique identifier’ with auto charge. It’s completely flawed. Try Plug and Charge, the true driverless authentication, being implemented by VW, Audi et al.

Which Dutch cheese is made backwards? .... Edam

Its doing a Tesla move 😄

kinda looks like juice ultra charger

Why bother with this new system which looks as if it will be problematic depending on what you drive - better still as Tesla has opened up its network to non-Tesla's just use them instead at a higher rate of .54p per kilowatt and I am blessed as I have a Tesla charging area 10 minutes from my home but still driving my ICE Fiesta

Cheapest tesla is 50 grand. Lots of good EVs for much less. Lots more rapid chargers than tesla rapid chargers. Competition good.

73P per Kw so more expensive to run than an ICE blimey

No thanks ! Multiple apps, different credit card accounts, QR codes? I’ll stick to Tesla. My model Y charges at 1600km/h and plans the route entirely on its own.

"Powered entirely by renewable energy".. 🤣 Well, not by those few solar panels. I cannot find any statement from Fast Ned about the use of strict renewable sources or credits, and most probably the energy supplied follow the common local network metrics.

This is like the oldest way to charge. Why not go the GridServe way and lower the price. PLUG IN, PAY, WALK AWAY, SIMPLE THE GRIDSERVE WAY.
