Use a Ford Pro Charger 80 Amp on my Kia EV6

[MadLighting]

SO right now I using a Tesla Gen 3 (48 amp) with Tesla Tap adapter to charge my 22 XLT ER. and we use it to charge our 22 Kia EV6 does the Ford Pro Charger 80 amp(running in 64 amp mode) work good with non Fords ? I am actually only going to use it in the 64amp mode since they all the juice i can spare with my 200 amp service at home

Another question is the FPC at 64 amps even worth installing ? how much faster will it actually charge I never plan on using it to power my house its to damn expensive for all the extras you need

Thanks

As long as the vehicle has the CCS socket, the FCSP will work.

131,000kWh battery in the ER truck. Say you're charging from 20% to 90%.

131,000kWh * 70% = 91,700kWh

91,700kWh / (240*48) = 8 hours to charge at 48 amps

91,700kWh / (240*64) = 6 hours to charge at 64 amps

Thanks I normally charge daily from like 60% to 90% seem like 48 amp is the better choice i already have it and i have to upgrade my circuit with wire $1200 to save maybe 2 hours..

You won’t get full power after 70%

48a is all the EV6 can accept, so no advantage to the CSP for the EV6

Them's a lot of zeros...

On a vehicle that can accept 64 amps, 64/48 = 1.33, i.e. 33% faster.

I have my pro charger hooked up to a 50 amp circuit. I have it set to 4. How many amps well it charge at?

My truck charged at the full rate all the way up to 90% last night.

I thought it only did that when DCFC?

That is correct. And it usually doesn't slow until 80.

Yep. DCFC will slow. L2 charging is pretty much constant up to 80~90%, depending on conditions, because it's much lower power. 80 AMPs from the Charge Station Pro has a peak output of 19.2kW.

80 AMPs from the Charge Station Pro has a peak output of 19.2kW.

Not to go off topic, but had anybody ever seen anything close to that? I've never recorded anything over 17.5 to 17.6kW.

 

[Lime Green]

Not to go off topic, but had subordinate ever seen anything close to that? I've never recorded anything over 17.8 to 17.9kW.

The 19.2kW is peak output - 240V * 80A = 19,200W.

Your 17.9 is probably about where it should be after efficiency loss of about 5 ~ 7 % on the charge process under normal conditions. 17.9 / 19.2 = 0.93229 or 93.23%

I was just saying that absolute peak, possible output is 19.2kW, which is much lower than DCFC charge rates, so the charging rate doesn't need to be slowed until close to the end or target charge level.
