yes, I got that.


Have you got "From what sort of supply?" *How much capacity have the
batteries and what charging current is needed to get to 80% in 3 minutes.


My car battery is 150Ahr capacity. 80% capacity is 120Ahr. *to provide that
in 3 minutes (1/20th hour) at 12v a charging current of 2400 Amps is
needed. *With a 100% efficient charger a supply capacity of 120 Amps at
mains voltage.


How many AmpereHours are needed for a car battery?


work on at least 25kWh for a little scootabout and 100kwh for a family
saloon.

To charge 100kwh in 3 mins is 2MW. at *400V *that's 5,000 amps.

nothing a bit of T & E cant handle.
Not!


More drivel fromTurNiP.
The traction battery in the Mitsubishi Imiev is 15Kwh.
The Nissan leaf is a bit more.
These cars are all about efficiency and regeneration.
