If you’ve noticed your EV charges quickly to begin with and then slows down, you’re not imagining it! Your EV has a battery management system (BMS) that controls the rate of charge in order to protect the battery. The BMS will ensure your battery will never be damaged during a charge, no matter how hot or full it gets. ChargeNet’s 50kW DC charging stations will automatically charge to 80%, because that’s all you’ll usually need, and the last 20% of a battery is always the slowest to charge. If you need more charge for your journey, push the 80% max button on the charger, and it will allow you to charge to 95%.
