100 kWh batteries are charged with 350kW chargers for 9 minutes.
Do people have the equivalent to charge laptops with the respective speed of what they’ll need to match the 350?
- manmal 2y agoYou can cleanly divide by 1000 and you get exactly the capacity of a 16“ MacBook Pro. So you‘d need a 350 Watt charger (ca like a vacuum cleaner) to charge that MBPro in 9 minutes, if it supported that kind of throughput. Such a charger might need air cooling, and would probably not be as portable. But certainly doable.
- mook 2y agoRandomly looking at Lenovo's site (sorting by highest price) shows they already have 330W chargers; that's not very far off. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/gx21m50608 https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/gx21m50608
- manmal 2y agoAmazing how small GAN has made these things.
