    Radar detector - any thoughts?

    in my opinion - at least in europe - a laser blocker is much more important. i used to use the stinger glass fiber radar warner & laser detector for this. i now use waze. it's important to know that unlike radar, there is no warning time with lasers. (no reflections) once the laser hits the car...

    Actual charging time almost 2X longer vs predicted.

    car meets charger, says “hi i am an macan, i can charge with up to 270kwh” charger says: “hi, nice to meet you, i can charge up to 350 kwh”.car thinks: “thats fine, we will be on our way in 20 min”. tragedy: charger did lie. owner blames the car…

    Actual charging time almost 2X longer vs predicted.

    the car “requests” the optimal charge rate which depends on the charging status of the battery. its a misconception that the car “decides” to take less charging than possible. actually a lot of chargers fail to provide the requested charging rate. how could the car “predict” this ?

    Actual charging time almost 2X longer vs predicted.

    it is a well tested fact and my own experience that the macan can charge at a good fast charger a bit more than 270kwh. that is peak which can be reached between 10-50/60%. Average speed when charging 10-80%. is 150 kwh. conclusion: charging at a fast charger speeds the charging up by 5-10 min...

    Actual charging time almost 2X longer vs predicted.

    macan is capable to charge from 10% - 80% in 21 minutes as often tested. you charged from 25% - 87% in 30 minutes. as the same tests show, the speed is not the same over the whole time it starts quite slow reaches a peak and gets slower to the ende, very slow above 80%.

    Beware using Porsche charging card in hotel parking

    if you have “preferred charging “ you have made an contract with porsche. @Devmac himself has posted this contract which consist of very few sentences. it is clearly stated that there is no blocking fee at “preferred partners “ which are listed. further hat blocking fees are: “Price per minute...

    Beware using Porsche charging card in hotel parking

    not true. the fee has to be applied “after 60 min AC/240 min DC.” this is no secret. it is clearly stated. if you can charge cheaper with an other card, just use the other card. to complain seems a bit childish, sorry to say. plus I am not happy about people that block chargers for hours after...
