What a wonderful holiday you must have had!! I bet there are fewer charging points for electric vehicles than there are in England!! And I imagine they’re in better located!!

Well, I’m not going to be getting the Nissan, but I’m certainly going to have an electric camper!! She’s a Vauxhall Combo Life Electric with a Wheelhome Vikenze III conversion.

Stunning part of the world. And the larger battery is certainly making that type of trip entirely normal. Just need a few 7kw chargers in the overnight stopping sites and will be a very stress free trip.

Indeed, even a campsite hookup is enough. Although, these days there are so many rapid chargers, we never had to go out of our way to charge

@@pauldunlop1 yes, we use campsites hookups all the time. Never had a problem. Although I've never specifically asked about EV charging, I just ask for a hookup which is totally normal for campervans. The van only uses 10A out of the maximum 16A a hookup is rated for and I try to plug in late in the evening.

I live in the Highlands and am thinking of buying the Red ENV200 which is on Auto trader, with 40kwh battery. It appears that you have not had any rapidgate issues.
@GlynHudson
@GlynHudson 2 жыл бұрын
If your regularly drive more than 200 miles in a day and rapid charge more then 3 times I a single day you will notice the 3rd rapid charge is a bit slower. It's not a major issue, the 3rd rapid charge will take about 10min longer. It can be somwhat negated by avoiding sustained driving above 60mph

Hi Glyn, we have a e-NV 200 Camper van (40 Kwh) too. We are planning a trip to scotland this summer. Which RiFD-Cards and charging apps do you recommand? I have a lot of problems getting acces to the ChargePlace Scotland. You need a UK-Bank Account to get access. I have a lot of other Apps, Cards etc. , but most don't work in UK. Brexit :(
@GlynHudson
@GlynHudson 2 жыл бұрын
In Scotland the Charge Place Scotland RFID is very useful. The RFID card is more reliable than the app. I would recommend emailing CPS to ask if you can sign up without an UK address. Brexit is a nightmware :-(

Do you know roughly how much you spent charging - or were most of the charge points free?
@GlynHudson
@GlynHudson 3 жыл бұрын
We sent about £60 in total for 1800 miles. The CPS network is now taking payment for most rapid charge locations. I don't mind in paying a fair price for charging, it will encourage investment in even better infrastructure

Hi Glyn, are you considering upgrading van with pop top roof?
@GlynHudson
@GlynHudson 3 жыл бұрын
No, I decided against a pop top when I did the conversion. I also use the van for carrying ladders, wood and bikes on the roof which is not compatible with a pop top! I also quite like having good lighting in the middle of the van which is not possible with a pop top.

@@GlynHudson Right, thought you had proper reason :) I am thinking of getting 2nd hand e-nv200 and trying to figure out is it worth getting pop top (not a cheap option, round 3k quids). Think i might opt in for 2nd hand 40kW instead a 24kW one with pop top. Keep up with the vids! Cheers!
