Maximum Charge rate for Long Range Trophy?

Thank you GrayCat this is very useful. Do you have a chart for AC charging as well?

Well, you could check the site I mentioned.

But, generally, even the "maximum" available power of AC charging — 7.2 kWt / 11 kWt — constitutes only a 11%...17% of the "Rated capacity", while "absolutely safe" threshold is considered to be at "~~50% C" for Li-Ion. So, there is no need to lower the charging power of AC unit up to 99% of SOC, where the balancing takes place.

Still, there is another point for "slow" charge: if it's too cold or too hot outside, some part of the energy taken off mains, will go to heating/cooling the battery. So, for e.g. 2.4 kWt "total" consumed power, the battery itself will get only ~~1 kWt, the rest spent to battery conditioninig. This will effectively extend charging time to X2 of expected...
