Hey Guest, welcome to ChevyBolt.org. We encourage you to register to engage in conversations about your Bolt.
A little confused about these kW numbers, please help clarify for me.
I've seen 2 numbers associated with the Bolt.
11 kW, and 55 kW
I saw a public charging station outside of a Denny's restaurant, stopped by to look at the spec. It read "50 kW". This station only charges $0.50 per hour to charge.
So if I hook up my future Bolt EUV to it, will I get 11 kW/hour delivered to the battery, or will I get 50 kW/hour? I know there are losses due to battery SOC and other factors, so the numbers I posted are ideal/theoretical. Let's assume there's no loss to make it easier to understand.
Thanks!

Too Funny. I am with you, Zapster. The layman will understand if you said 50 cents per kw. Its like like saying $3.59 per gallon.Would anyone else like to pile on? My treat!
