If you waited 5 minutes, you were at 3/4 of a charge. Physics dictate how fast you can charge a battery, and it isn't faster than 30 minutes if you're at 1/4 or less.
I can only ask: why would you bother recharging at 3/4 of a charge? I've literally never in my life stopped to top off my tank at 3/4 of a tank of gasoline.
- greglindahl 11y ago"Wait in line" means I'm unable to get to a charger because they're all occupied by other cars. That explains why your comments are so confusing.
- tw04 11y agoFilling up my gas tank takes roughly 90 seconds. The only equivalent is "waiting in line". There wouldn't ever be a circumstance in which it would take 30 minutes to fill my tank.
- greglindahl 11y agoThe words "wait in line" mean something particular, and it isn't how you're using them. I agree that people charging Teslas at SuperChargers often spend 30 minutes charging. They do not "wait in line" to do so, unless all the chargers are full when they arrive.
