read the user guide and tell me how you interpret it.I’m not sure how NOCO is NOT compatible with lion battereys - at the end of the day it provides 12V DC - and the noco is _NOT_ a charger - it’s a booster that provides 12V power to the 12V bus - it’s _NOT_ charging the 12V LiON battery - it provides power to the 12V bus for 1-2 minutes and then you disconnect it and the car takes over charging the 12V battery - you don’t leave the NOCO connect to “charge” the LiON 12V battery
the _ONLY_ reason a 12V power source would _NOT_ be compatible with a 12V battery was if it continues to force power down the throat of a LiON 12V battery after it was full....that’s not the case here.
12V DC power is 12V DC power - regardless of power source.
I understand the NOCO may not be a good source to charge a LiON battery - but please explain to me why it’s not a good 12V power source to power the Taycan to wake it up?
now leaving the NOCO connected to the 12V bus while the Taycan is also charging the 12V bus and the NOCO is providing power to the 12V bus and all that going around - I could also see connecting the NOCO directly to a LiON battery might not be the best for LiON battery - but again that’s not what we are doing here - and the LiON battery in the porsche has it’s own power regulator on the battery leads…
someone’s going to have to explain to me in the context of the Taycan how the NOCO booster (not charger) is “bad” for the LiON battery that it’s not directly connected to while it spends 30-90 seconds powering the Taycan’s 12V bus so that the car can wake up and take over from a 12V death situation - and no you don’t get to quote bland CYA vauge statements about the NOCO not being compatibilty for LiON batteries that were written for ICE vehicles who’s power bus architecture and connections is completely different than the Taycan.
I look forward to being educated.
I have no dog in this fight, someone suggested this as a solution and I visited their site and read this and the way I read it is that the noco is incompatible. maybe I am missing something.
