EV Channels Review
This episode of 'Charging Across America' takes viewers on a journey through diverse EV charging experiences, featuring a Ford Lightning. The reviewer highlights a record-breaking 191 kW charging session at an IONNA station in Kansas, praising the Alpitronic HYC 400 charger's performance, especially noting the benefit for the Extended Range Lightning model. The experience at Buc-ee's in Colorado is detailed, with a focus on the Tesla V3 Superchargers and the reviewer's mixed feelings about the overwhelming scale and busyness of the location, though appreciating the availability of Magic Docks. A significant portion is dedicated to an in-depth look at an XCharge NetZero series DC fast charger at the Out of Spec Studios' HUB in Fort Collins, Colorado, explaining its battery buffer system and impressive power delivery despite grid limitations. The tour of the Out of Spec HUB showcases their content creation space and reveals their upcoming move to North Carolina, along with the significant cost challenges they faced in installing high-power charging at their current Colorado facility. The episode effectively blends road trip experiences with technical insights into charging infrastructure.
