Finally I have a found a video explaining in detail how these non Tesla charging stations work. I do not have the car yet and wont until I see how these non Tesla chargers work. Thank You!
This is wonderful! Super helpful for new owners and prospective owners to help navigate public charging. One of the biggest things, that you cover well, is the max charging rate for a particular vehicle and particular station. It is NOT the same as a gas station where the fuel goes into the car at the same flow rate. The analogous flow rate for EV chargers depends on its max flow rate (marked on the charger like 100kW or 350kW...etc) and the max that the particular vehicle can accept (this is usually NOT marked on the car and there is simply NO WAY TO TELL! -usually). You have to Google it! Kyle tells folks all the time and this is hard to understand, dealerships have a hard time with this as well.
I’ve had great luck with EVgo using Autocharge on my Bolt EUV. Other than taking a bit longer than I’d like to actually start, it works really really well. I always use EVgo when traveling over other networks if there’s a choice.
How ‘bout that…I didn’t know I could set up plug-n-charge on our Mach-e for EVgo. Going to find a station tomorrow and give it a try. More EA stations in this part of the country, but always good to have options.
This was very helpful video. Thank you. I just got an EV went to charge at a EVgo by my house and it didn’t work but I think it was me not the machine. People charge their all the time and so does my neighbor. So I found this very helpful
Great EVgo starter video. Would you please have a link in the 4:58-Minute chapter about how to get a Physical Card for paying with an RF ID Card without using their Android App? Thank you so much.
If you have an official Tesla ccs adapter do you have to babysit your car when you're charging so nobody steals your adapter? And if they do steal your adapter does your ev go auto charge billing follow your adapter or your vehicle?
Does anyone have a realistic of firm estimate on how much battery degradation would occur on the 2022 Chevy Bolt battery is you charged say for 150 miles from the 50 mile range to the 200 mile range only (ie enough range for 150 miles to be in compliance with the 80/20 rule of charging) and did this say 50 times in 1 year ? (would it be a 2% or 5% or 10% or 15% loss in permanent battery range from DC fast charging battery degradation? )
Thanks for the video. I downloaded the EVGO app and it looks like I will need to join a plan like $7/month to be able to use their charger. Hope I missed something there 😂
From what the video shows it seems anyone could walk by and tap the screen to stop the charging of any ev plugged in... Also with the charge plus if the ev gets stolen the thief would have unlimited automatic charging??
Evgo keeps stoping every 5/10 mins and charging me 2.99 session fee. Anyone else getting scammed by like this? Happened at multiple charge stations in different cities.
it will make your life better by not even trying to charge at a evgone charger in the whole state of FL, they only have 1 site with 350kw chargers in the whole area of south florida and the dispenser always charge at a rate of 80 kw and the rest of the dispensers are broken. The card reader WILL NOT EVER take your credit or debit card, it will take the evgone card, so everything it has to be through the app and if you do not want to open an account, just call them right away and tell them to take your payment over the phone! welcome to EVGONE 2023
Great video! So helpful as a full overview of charging at EVgo

Glad to see that EV go now has seamless plug-in charge.
The autocharge is something else I did not know and good to know. Thank You!
Good Job Ryan having this colleague do this part. EVgo IS The most expensive out there for daily/weekly usage, about same in Calif.13-17 per sessh.
FYI, you are beautiful. The information you share is beautiful. Thank you for helping to make the world a better place!

Great intro! I feel so out of the loop and now i feel in the loop. Seriously, game changing video for me thanks for it!
Excellent correct information really helped without app. Thanks and bless you.
If I charge a volt using one of the high power units, will there be a problem?
This was very helpful video. Thank you. I just got an EV went to charge at a EVgo by my house and it didn’t work but I think it was me not the machine. People charge their all the time and so does my neighbor. So I found this very helpful
Loving your videos. I think they will be very helpful to new EV owners.
Great video. You did a fab job of explaining all aspects of using the EVGO station. Super helpful!!
You forgot to mention that Evie go holds $30 when you process by credit card on the machine
Now is $55
On 03Nov2024 in Michigan, it placed a $30 authorization on my credit card. Wondering if $55 is authorized in high traffic area... I'm guessing?!?
Thank You for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth.... Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste.. 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ ☮ ❤
Excellent vid 🎉
Excellent video, thanks!

Here's the video I was looking for. Charge Reliability At EVgo And ChargePoint - Get A Physical Card

Just a quick note - it’s kWh, not kW, that’s being passed to the battery.
my bolt has plug and charge at evgo

The car was beeping at 2:59.

Don’t they take $50 hold every time you charge 🤦♂️😩
I feel a swelling of pity for Leaf owners. I can't imagine what a hassle it is to actually get them charged away from home.
First step, own a cellphone with the corresponding EV app. 😜 just in case...
EV Go sux
