AC & DC Charging: Which one to charge your EV? - AutoBuzz

There’re more and more electric cars on the road, and you’re probably driving one now. Or perhaps considering to get one. But do you know the differences between AC charging and DC charging? How fast can your car charge? What’s the maximum charging capacity? 7kW? 11kW? Or 350kW? Well, if you’re wondering what’s all these, it’s probably best that you watch this video as Arif explains the differences between AC & DC charging.

thank you for this video. it makes me feel hopeful to see ev is becoming the norm. learnt few more stuff on this vid!

Super useful.

[@ildico]

I need time to grasp all of these. Perhaps owning an EV might help with the details esp the ampere. But I get the idea. Good job AB!

Cue Thunderstruck - AC/DC

[@benpaul22]

very informative ! good video Autobuzz!

[@Alozhatos]

AC do have additional job to convert to DC inside car rectifier. While DC charges directly to the battery. AC may suits for home especially with 3-phase 415V. Using 1-phase 240V took a long time to charge.

[@maxcavalera9797]

Dude you got nice voice as a presenter. Should be perfect for tv newscaster. 👍🏼👌🏼

[@toneysunny9283]

perfect timing for tesla launch

[@lh6135]

Thank you for being very comprehensive, RM62 plus minus, subject to TNB higher end changes, still a lot better than RON97 or RON95 without subsidy Could you do a vlog can Replacement of Batteries, trying to see how it will cost, setting off with less maintenance of an EV car?

[@user-tk3be9eh7l]

simple count 1/3 of the car price, batteries healthy rate is not included in warranty

[@wmd3477]

Very enlightenment content. Thank you AB!

[@ZulkefliMohamedIsa-ze6ho]

Considering there are four motor for its four tyre I wonder can we put alternator for each tyre ?

[@zans3876]

@9:01 there is possibly an error in the table. Charge rate (km/min) of 3.7 kW looks better than 7.4 kW. Conceptually, it should be the reverse i.e. charging using 7.4 kW must give more km per minutes as compared to lower power 3.7kW.

[@itisyouthatiadore]

more power equals to increased pricing presumably

[@kongming2005]

Is it bad to charge with travel charger or AC wall box whenever you reach home unless you travelled a long distance. Wouldn't it be better to have a "full tank" every morning instead stressing to find a charging station?

[@Alozhatos]

I wonder recent Volvo EV Prime Mover lorry does accept 350kW charger?

[@fooveyron3080]

Atto 3 extended range can take up a 3-phase 22 kW wall charger. Please confirm again!

[@Reddylion]

Nice ev.

[@hongjonglim3362]

😊 😊

[@alpacamix]

for me Ac charge make common sense at work, home, mall. since we spend hours in there. but DC or supercharger are valid on petrol station or any RNR since people doesnt want to stay for so long during their trip. I really hope Malaysia infrastructure improve on charge cause by go on many people will change their car to EV , and we dont want to be stuck waiting for line on stations.

[@shutengloke5907]

Will be a challenge to build charging facility in older apartment/mall/office lot.

[@davidchew]

6:48 - Shouldn't it be getting into a bit of more details of DC charging?

[@samg5429]

Possible to install DC charger at home?

[@user-tk3be9eh7l]

can

[@wespress0]

well that’s some they don’t tell you about the Atto 3 being able to only take a 7kw single phase 😮

[@fooveyron3080]

Atto 3 extended range can take up a 3-phase 22 kW wall charger. Please confirm again! 16A x 3 phase.

[@PsychedMedia]

​@@fooveyron3080nope, it cannot. Atto3 extended range can only accept single phase 7kW. You can charge at a 22kW charger but max you will get is 7kW (6.5kW realistically)

[@makwk]

@@PsychedMedia thx. is there any reason why they are selling 3 phase chargers to BYD buyers? future proof?

[@PsychedMedia]

@@makwk yes because sime darby motors other brand cars that they sell all has 3 phase capabilities.

[@rajaharry7170]

Have a feeling full EV still not that suitable for people living in apartments unless the apartments have significant amount of AC charging points. Many apartments still do not even have that facility. Charging at the public charging station with charging rate per minute would be very costly for over hours of charging, may even cost more than petrol. And using high voltage/current DC fast charging regularly would degrade the battery faster.

[@shutengloke5907]

Yes, infrastructure at older apartment/mall/office lot/etc simply may not be viable to build charging station.

[@zizimai7568]

Its up to residence to discuss with the apartment committee/mgmt to install charges on the parking lots.

[@CameronKang91]

You don't really need to charge it everyday. I live in high rise with an EV. I usually charge at shopping mall and office or go makan near a DC charging hub and my car would be fully charge after my meal, and I'm good for the week

[@darrenkwok84]

​@@CameronKang91so you bought byd dolphin? Which charger did you use and how long did it take to to charge? How long does batt last for mileage?

[@khairol1588]

I own a BMW EV and living in a condo with no EV charger. I typically charge at DC station or office which provides AC charger. I can assure, I only charge once a week for city use.. and on average I spent Rm60 on DC charger from 10% to 80%. If I charge at the office, it’s free. I only pay for parking. Full day is only Rm20 for parking. All considered, it is still cheaper than owning an ICE conti car and a lot more fun to drive.

[@bellofire1217]

Lecehlah nk menunggu.. buatlah 3 bateri.. 1 habis guna bateri no.2.. 2 habis guna bateri no.3 .. ini 1 bateri je ...jln jem lagi kuat mkn bateri.. .

[@sackboy5683]

Kalau letak byk battery, lg berat kereta, lg x jauh la dia travel per charge. Lg 1, EV x makan battery masa jem ye. EV makan battery byk bila drive lebih 110km sejam. Kalau cakap pasal leceh menunggu, pada tahun 2008 dulu aku pernah rasa iPhone tu x best sbb selalu kena cas sebab battery cepat habis. Leceh kan setiap hari nak kena cas phone? Dulu aku prefer Nokia or Sony Ericsson or blackberry sbb x perlu cas sekerap iPhone. Tapi skrg 2024 aku dah terbiasa dah cas phone sekali or dua kali sehari. It's just a matter of getting used to the tech, the advantages and limitations of it.

battery degrade, cost of changing battery

[@JacxKuok]

dc charge will damage the battery also

[@user-tk3be9eh7l]

ac and dc also will damage battery, so change it once done using~ haha

[@JacxKuok]

@@user-tk3be9eh7l you had brain problem ? I said DC charge is more easy damage the battery in term of long period charging. Study before you talk shit.

[@dw4510619]

Question, if an EV car is charged daily with AC 22kW to max of 80% at 10A, would be the same or better to charge the car with DC 30kW daily to max of 80% at 10A by passing the car’s OBC of 11kW or 22kW?

[@user-tk3be9eh7l]

the different except charging time is battery degrade rate, fast charging degrade the battery faster, so if want protect battery use slow charging~

[@davidwee2419]

@@user-tk3be9eh7l So even at lower DC 30kW charging to by pass the car's OBC causes the car battery to degrade? Isn't the car's say 22kW OBC (AC 22kW to DC at 2) the same to charge the battery at 22kW DC?

[@user-tk3be9eh7l]

@@davidwee2419 no matter how battery also will degrade, not about the charging type, is about the charging how many time (circle), it is the weakness of battery~ the more you use the faster battery degrade

[@lozhenhong6656]

Clean energy ?

[@limprofile]

even from a coal plant it is still more cleaner (more efficient to be on the grid than the individual powerhouse of a engine) and for lithium mining give them some time to clear up their mess first.

[@lozhenhong6656]

@limprofile not only said how we generate electricity. But how is the process to come out battery and how to handle those batteries after 8/10? Also, a question..

[@user-tk3be9eh7l]

clean or not it depend how the TNB generate the electric, for sure is Clean Traffic Environment

[@user-tk3be9eh7l]

@@lozhenhong6656 currently no common solution for the batteries, just throw away, normally recycle cost will very high so no market~

rm90 for 3min charge, cost rm30 per minute, or, rm1800 per hour

[@arasuishere]

Unfortunately, the world haven't found the solution to charge your car to 100% within 30mins or 1hour.. this technology not yet invented this might takes many years to pass.

Why designing of AC chargers is not high rated?
