    EA 350KW unit speed of charge declined by 50% after the software update

    Very likely the charger, try a different charger or even a different site.

    Electrify America won’t charge since latest PCM update

    I have found chargers that would not accept P&C for my Taycan but others at the site would. Called CS and reported the defective charger. Hope this helps.

    Range at high speeds?

    Wheels and tires can make a big difference. The 70MPH range tests with the big range were done on aero wheels and skinny tires.

    Jason Fenske, Engineering Explained would give you an "A" for the homework assignment! I felt like I was listening to Jason as I read your post. Nice job!

    Simple way to measure useable battery capacity?

    " Of course, the absolute way is to discharge to 1-2% then measure what you used and how much you put back in to 100% - Bjorn's style " Tom Moloughney on State of Charge has found that some cars can trave further on the first 25% of the battery than on the last 25% of the battery. Although...

    Electrify America Plug and charge issues

    Interesting report as the EA app shows all units available now. I have been to this charger several times and my experience is that most if not all chargers were available.

    [North America] - this is getting embarrassing - Porsche nerfing/neutering the PMCC via OTA update?

    The CP Charger app does appear to have the amperage choice removed. However once set to 40 amps it holds that setting. Have no idea what happens when contacting tech support. The Porsche chargers can revert to 20 amps every time it is activated. Hope this helps.

    Electrify America Plug and charge issues

    I am suprised EA didn't start a complementary session for you. I have been to EA chargers recently and did find one charger that wouldn't start for my '22 Taycan so simply moved to another charger.

    First road trip - how accurate is ABRP?

    When you input the Grovetown charger the Nav app will display the anticipated SoC upon arrival. That will give you confidence about completing the leg sucessfully. Keep an eye on the arrival SoC and slow down if necessary to to keep a positive value. S/B no problem. Good luck.

    First road trip - how accurate is ABRP?

    ABRP is way conservative to start with and the reference consumption for your car is 417Wh/mi which is too high as well. Reducing the reference consumption to 350Wh/mi helps. Your car should be able to go 250 miles @80mph, so no problem to get to Grove Town through Walterbroro without charging...

    Reduced range

    In the Charging ICON click on the [...] option lower right hand side and the next screen will have: Battery Friendly charging option. The car will reduce its demand for power on 350kW chargers. Using a 150kW charger will limit your charge rate to 175kW provided you have the 150kW/400V option...

    Can you check to see if your pictail is the same as y photos? 40amp rating? Do you run that charger totally enclosed?

    [North America] - this is getting embarrassing - Porsche nerfing/neutering the PMCC via OTA update?

    I will run some tests this afternoon and report back later today. I have the Porsche charger running now for a baseline. The pigtail and plug are not an issue at all so far. The highest temperature is the wire near the J772 plug, about 25 degrees higher than the plug after nearly an hour.

    [North America] - this is getting embarrassing - Porsche nerfing/neutering the PMCC via OTA update?

    I do not have the charger with display screen. It's possible the the quality of the wire in the Prosche charger has more resistance than the etron unit? My CP Flex Home charger says 9.4kW going to the car. So 9.4/240= 39 amps at the 14-50 outlet.
