Wow that's cool, I didn't know chargers could deliver that kind of power. 7 kW is about 10 hp, 5 space heaters, 2 ovens or dryers, anyway it's a lot. 50 kW would charge my car in a half an hour if the batteries could handle it! My Leaf doesn't have the optional 480 V charging port, to anyone reading this who might be interested in the Level 3 fast charging. I hadn't researched it yet, but that's a CHAdeMO port, thanks for mentioning that, this article claims a 40 minute charge to 80% on a 40 kWh Leaf: https://www.davidaltmejd.com/how-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-nissan-leaf/#Charging_Your_Nissan_Leaf_in_Stations_Level_3_Or_DC_Fast_Charging https://www.davidaltmejd.com/how-long-does-it-take-to-charge... 55 kW @ 480 V DC would be 115 A and can go up to 400 A or 192 kW (258 hp)! I also realized that I left out the detail that my car has about 60,000 miles. I test drove almost the same model from the same year with 90,000 miles and from what I could tell, it performed the same. Batteries today are so much better than when they were first used in laptops in the late 2000s and only got 300 cycles. Li-ion batteries today are getting more in the 4,000-40,000 (in the lab) cycle range. Oh! Another details is that my Leaf was $7900 + ~$1000 taxes and fees or $8900 total. They were about $6900 right before the pandemic. The dealers don't really understand how well batteries hold up, and demand is low in flyover states like mine. But word is getting out, and I think that when people are powering their home off their electric Ford F-150, demand is going to rise substantially even for older used electrics.
