dpeilow,
thanks for this find.
Now we have the confirmation, that it IS (would be) possible to charge the roadster, even in continental DACH europe, with 70A (in the 16kVA case: 69,5A).
The negative issue is the price; I have converted it and xe gave me 6.868 EUR for that value. Lets reduce it by about 10% to 6k EUR - but as for industrial electronics, you surely have spoken about prices excl. VAT - so here in austria we have 20%, which means we are at 7.200 Euros. And then there is transportation costs.... its not mentioned how "heavy" the device is, but from the dimensions and the looks ...
Another problem is heat dissipation. Datasheet says under load, for every 1000W load -> 100W of heat are generated. So when charging with 16kVA, you have constant 1600W of heat generated from the device (seems to comply with the 90% efficiency).
So just imagine, for the charging time of 4 hours, a heater blower with 1600W is running. This will result in problems. For charging, less ambient temperatures are extremely important. See tread "energy consumption while sitting", etc.; at TM owners section. With that heat source, you wont efficiently charge, and in summer, you simply have a problem in your garage.
So, depending on the size of your garage, add 4k EUR to EUR 8k for a stationary air condition including installation.
But then - with the air condition running - see overall energy efficiency (AC, Inverter, roadster itself).
Hmm. I like the Schieflast more and more :wink:
