    BP Chargemaster now on PCS

    Just noticed BP Chargemaster are now on the Porsche app. The 50 kW sites are fairly uninteresting, albeit very numerous but the ultra rapid hubs like the 16 charge point site at Q-Park look OK. ….can’t believe I’d ever be semi advocating BP after boycotting them the last 6 or so years...

    Osprey Charge Hubs (UK)

    Just thought I'd summarise a couple of things Osprey related in one thread, rather than polluting the 'Dealership charging' thread any further 😂 Firstly the new or upgraded 300 kW capable hubs which will probably be of more interest to us, than a new Osprey 75kW twin or triple site: Cut Throat...

    First Tesla V4 site in the world with payment terminals

    Was cool to charge at the first V4 site in the world - with operational payment terminals! Also please note using the ahem ‘correct’ bay, so no blocking the Tesla faithful 😉 No cable length issue this morning…plenty long enough.
