I have a 2017 Model S and I am wondering if my charging speed will be the same at a 250 KW supercharger vs a 150kw or 72kw charger station. Like everyone else I want to charge as quickly as possible and if my charging speed is the same or virtually the same from the 250 KW and 150KW charger then I will have more choices on where to charge as I go on my trip.
With all of this said, I did speak with Tesla support and the person said it does not matter which supercharger I use, I will pretty much get the same charging speeds at any super charger (including 72 KW). And he said that the speed that my S chargers at will be pretty much the same as a new Model 3. That does not seem right at all. I have freinds who have a 3 and they say the charging speeds will sometimes by up to 1,000 mph while the fasted I have ever charged at is 450-480 mph.
Lastly, should I change my Current Charge Amps from 40 to the max of 48? Will this increase my charge speeds?
Any input is greatly appreciated.
