The numbers from my friends' Leaf point to a charging efficiency loss of 110V vs. higher rates at around 10%. FWIW. [edit] From https://www.mynissanleaf.com/v

>Level 1 (120v, 12 amps): 78% efficient
>Level 2 (240v, 16 amps): 91% efficient
>Level 2 (208v, 30 amps): 91% efficient
>CHAdeMO (500v DC, ~100 amps): 93% efficient
- darksaints 5y agoYeah, that's because of the lower nominal voltage of the battery: 350v vs Tesla's 450v. So you get higher charge efficiency, but you'll get lower motor efficency with it. Not sure if it comes out ahead in end to end efficiency.
