Jaguar I-PACE fast charging at Tesla Supercharger v3

[@RensFeenstra]

looking forward to the follow-up video where you use the hazard lights from the start!!

I love you!

[@joseamaral673]

Hi mate! I had a similar experience on my car with the "Hazzard Light Easter Egg". Turns out there is already a Software Update available at the dealers and now I can fast charge (100kW) for longer without using the Hazzard Lights. Give the dealership a call!

[@electricfelix]

Cool I will tell the owner of the vehicle!

[@Galiriva]

This man is smart and don’t block 2 superchargers

[@TassieEV]

You're not blocking a charger when there is nobody there anyway and you are allowed to use the charger so that is a good thing you are using it.

[@DanWarburton]

I think it’s absolutely ridiculous if you don’t jump the queue and pay for the charge, to be worried about taking up a charging point. We are all equal to each other, no one has superior rights over another. What a ridiculous concern to have.

[@barryw9473]

Bedankt! I wish Tesla USA would move a bit faster on opening up the network and adding adapters for CCS. My 36 kWh e-Golf maxes out at ~39 kW DCFC, but it would still be fun to test.

[@InternetDude]

I wonder if Tesla can eliminate the app in the future, once your car is entered in their system the VIN can be sent and billing done automatically without having to use the app? Similar to how Teslas operate when they plug in??

[@electricfelix]

Depending on the vehicle it should be possible, precisely what Fastned does with their autocharge system! It recognizes your vehicle after once starting the charge with the app.

[@jagmani-pace3545]

The newer I-paces have 11kw onboard chargers rather than the 7kw you were using. They also have a dedicated cable release button built in. Unfortunately they max out on a ccs charger at 104kw. If you get the chance try one and see if that is quicker than the older cars on the Tesla superchargers? Very interesting video for me as I had not seen an Ipace using a Tesla stall before Thanks!

[@electricfelix]

Indeed I've rented an EV320 this summer which had the button! Unfortunately I don't know anyone with a new one, but I'll try anyway! Plus I hope to come back for a hazard light session but from the very beginning so it hopefully works out next time :>

@@levi_p7657 Does the car still work? Nobody talks about the reliability of these, I'm curious

[@christianweigl4467]

The Trick is only working if you do it from beginning… if you already started a DC charging before, you are limited… 😉

[@electricfelix]

THAT has been proven now, hahahahaha. Thanks you must be right. Next time, maybe v2.

[@alexhaddock4554]

Do you need to keep them running once its started? Never tried it.

[@electricfelix]

@@alexhaddock4554 You do! Don't turn them off, it will immediately dial down the charging throttle to around 80kW usually. Leave 'em on and enjoy the show. Drive fast before you go charging though, use lots of regen, ideally you want the battery above 30 degrees!

[@abraxastulammo9940]

😂

[@alexhaddock4554]

@@electricfelix Haahahah, if this isn’t a wind up I think I’d probably rather it throttled than sit there with my Hazards on….but of course now I know I’ll need to try it. Power Cruise Control looks a lot cleaner than trying to setup Car Scanner for it though, will definitely give that a try so thanks 🙏

[@InternetDude]

If I was you and saw that many empty stalls, I would park anywhere I wanted. If I needed to move later because it was busy, that is when I would move. No point parking out in the driving area like you did with so many free spaces.

[@electricfelix]

Of course I agree with you. But you think the average Tesla driver would like me standing there? Here in the comments I'm sure it would lead to a big "party" :> You shoud've seen the tweets last week on my ID.3 video...

[@rudyyyxu]

@@electricfelix as a Tesla owner I wouldn’t mind at all

[@i.sommer227]

@electricfelix Would be nice to test the I-Pace at the Tesla V2 SuC. Supposedly, the V2 can only output 410V, but the I-Pace has a 450V battery voltage. Would be happy about a test where the I-Pace is charged to 100% at the V2 :)

[@electricfelix]

Would be interesting indeed, there are several locations nearby. Takes more time though so will have to find a way to borrow one for longer.

[@Angusoksen]

Why did you wait so long to plug in? almost getting cold!?

[@GotstuffStoppa]

How long did it take to get 80% charge?

[@BERNIEO4]

To much empty chatter ! Jest tell us about the charging..

[@paulwynne1811]

Love that colour

[@fbr4801]

What wrap color is this ?

[@edutwin]

all the different chargers and cards made public charging a worthless user experience, now it makes sense to go on a long road trip.

[@glumbers]

Awesome Colour!!!!!

[@hariranormal5584]

is this car reliable still?

[@electricfelix]

That is a great question actually. Think it depends on your mileage and if all necessary recalls over the years have been fixed and handled "correctly". Other than that I'd say you mainly need a lot of luck if you for example get one second hand now. They're a bargain in The Netherlands because of the amazing lease deals that all ran out by now

[@goetzingert]

Like that tests

[@davidashley4386]

Could you possibly drag this video clip any more ? Bored now.

[@thomasjacques5286]

Don't these cars Pre-Condition battery before arriving at a DCFC?

[@electricfelix]

many vehicles don't plus they don't know the SuC as a fast charging location ..

[@360milliondollars]

Oh... so you can charge a non Tesla car on Tesla charger.... Okay

[@FFE-js2zp]

Last time Icharged a Tesla there was a nebulus line. Thank God one guy had a revolver to keep people from butting. What a nightmare of a car. Just putrid.

[@alanmay7929]

Why are soo many tesla at those AC chargers?!

[@electricfelix]

Because it's easy. Most people drive around NL with a "charging card" from their "boss". You swipe it at any AC (or DC) charger and that's it. So when you arrive at this restaurant for food/meeting you put your Tesla at an AC charger, boss pays, and you leave a couple hours later with a full battery. No Supercharging needed. Plus not all Model S can use this v3!

[@alanmay7929]

@@electricfelix thats superb, and not supercharging makes the battery last longer.

[@davidsommen1324]

It's a big part of the convenience of owning an EV, which a lot of ICE drivers do not (yet) comprehend. If you have ubiquitous AC charging, there's only need for HPC when roadtripping. Most people only travel less than 50kms a day and travel distances that exceed an average modern EV's battery range only once or a few times per year. If you can charge your car while you're doing something else (sleeping, working, shopping, eating,...) you never have to worry about range. This fact alone is one of the reasons why EVs are the future - once infrastructure is in place (which it is already in many places, but still some way to go) EV driving will be way more convenient than driving ICE cars. For people who can charge at home this is already mostly the case, but obviously there are lots of people who can't do that, so this is the way forward.

[@alanmay7929]

@@davidsommen1324 it only depends on how you use your vehicle, EVs aren't necessarily better tbh.
