That would be about the most power you can expect from most level 2 chargers on modern Teslas. The + kWh is the number of kWh you've added during that charging session. So here, you added 1 kWh so far.All I ever seem to get is 6 - 7 kW from type 2 public chargers , they are free but is that the standard range. Also what’s the + digit kWh
kW = rate
kWh = capacity
Beans, you contradicted yourself. Your first statement is correct. You should have dropped the "h" from the second as you are referring to rate. Hence, the product is 7,020 watts, or 7.02 kilowatts.You can calculate the rate, kW, from the Amps * Volts. In your photo, you’re getting 30A at 234V, which 30*234 = 7,020Wh = 7.02kWh.
If you are charging on a 120V outlet and it's 30 below zero with a cold battery, charging speed would be impacted, wouldn't it?
Sort of. The charging speed isn’t necessarily impacted but the battery might need some time to warm before it accepts a charge. But when have you ever seen a level 1 public charger? Also being a public charger, one would assume the battery would be warm enough to charge since you had to drive to it.If you are charging on a 120V outlet and it's 30 below zero with a cold battery, charging speed would be impacted, wouldn't it?
Yes it would. I would never advise to rely on 120V/15A charging in the winter as a regular thing (do it, of course if you have low charge and you have no other choice). The original question was whether a Level 2 charger would be impacted, and the answer is that it would take a small hit, not very noticeable.If you are charging on a 120V outlet and it's 30 below zero with a cold battery, charging speed would be impacted, wouldn't it?
I had to use a 120V outlet at home for a few weeks when I moved once and it was around freezing. The battery was so cold I think I gained 5 miles of range overnight. But you're right, there are basically no public level one chargers but there can be a bed and breakfast/hotel and things now and then where they allow you to plug into an outlet.Sort of.

I've never personally seen a public L1 EVSE. For ages, Products | PowerPost EVSE only sold an L1 unit but I've never seen one in the wild.Sort of.
