    1st Charge Advice

    Charging using any AC ie not Rapid, charger is fine, Granny, home or destination chargers will all balance the cells. Each balance may take some hours so just leave on , and use it a bit the next day.

    Ready Mode while Charging ?

    Nope , it is a limited ready mode where the traction controls are locked out but does 12V battery charging and does not time out. For full ready mode it cannot be plugged in , as the charge sensing locks out the car controls.

    Ready Mode while Charging ?

    Generally about 1/2 of fossil fuel at 30p, charger at home or work is from 2-4p per mile so about 1/5 the cost. Free chargers at Tescos are mostly PodPoint so worth having the app. Most Rapid Chargers worth using have contactless payment. Gridserve/Electric Highway 30p Ionity 70p ...

    type 2 cable confusion

    For your current use 32A single phase is fine, unless you have 3 phase at home then that is all you can supply, future euro spec cars are coming with 11kW - 22kW capability.
