fast charge

This IS the next BIG thing even for NON automotive use. * Just imagine you can fast charge your smart phone in minutes along with x2 the current capacity. Amazing! I disregard many of the news reports from American researchers on batteries as they are usually only scientific rumors or someone...

Last week a came across two fast chargers at a Sheraton Hotel near my wife’s job. I was shocked (pun intended) to find the price was $9/hour. My wife, who will be buying a Bolt EV, said she would only use it in an emergency. Is $9/hour a fair price for fast charging?

Have any of you had experience with DC Fast Chargers (480V)? I heard they can charge your vehicle in less than 30 minutes. If you have used them, how long did it take to get a full charge and what does it cost? Are there some locations that allow you to use for free? Seems like there...
