Help request to you lucky Taycan owners from a poor person still awaiting his lock date.
In the video at start of a thread I had for a charging review by Bjorn Nyland on a Taycan 4S with small battery and base 50kW DC-DC converter he got only a 36kW charging rate. He also stated that's what Porsche had suggested would be common, although I don't recall reading that but I intend to find 800 volt chargers 99% of the time I need fast charging anyway.
So my question to owners is would somebody mind trying to charge they're taken at a 50 kilowatt charger like evgo or such and see what they get. I'm curious if the upgraded 150 kilowatt converter will improve the efficiency at 50 kilowatts. This was speculated in some posts above.

Short cut to the offset
Be clear his story was not all doom and gloom from him, at the beginning of the video you will see 220 kw charging which is the peak for the smaller battery. He was also quite impressed that it was still going at 100 kilowatts at 79%.
