Re: Which Type 2 cable to buy?

Same if I find a public charging station that can deliver 22kw? You have them here in the Netherlands. Not many, but they are there. And it fills up the Honda e faster than normal standard charging stations. https://www.wedrivesolar.nl We also have a few 22kw charging stations here in Italy but I s...

Re: Which Type 2 cable to buy?

The Honda e can take up to 6.6kW not 22kW. A cable in single phase 32A that can charge up to 7kW is all you need. Otherwise will be too heavy if you go for 3 phase 22kW ones. I bought mine from https://evchargeplus.com/ Couldn't find it on the Honda UK page, it says 3 phase 22kw but also says Honda...

Re: COMMUTING

It was 'ZoeDave', not me that posted this: How do you get pre-heat to work? I just got the car, tried setting it to start at 7.50 for 10 minutes, but when I get in the car at 8 it doesn't seem to have worked. Do I need to keep the AC on when I turn off the car at night so it's ready for pre-heat? T...

Re: COMMUTING

This is the one thing I use the app for - it takes about 30s, but does the job. You can also use the fob, but I think you have to press the lock button first before holding down the climate button for a few seconds (others might correct me on the exact button dance required) Fair enough, as I'm the...

Re: COMMUTING

Re: Which Type 2 cable to buy?

I am no expert on this, but provided its a Type2-Type2 you should be able to buy any one, just get one for the length you will need. In the UK the car is supplied with a charging cable, but I needed an extended one and ordered this https://www.ezoomed.com/shop/ev-charging-cables/cables/premium-gen-...

Which Type 2 cable to buy?

Just bought my Honda e from a private owner but Honda doesn't provide the Type 2 - Type 2 cable from new here in Italy. They asked me 310€ (264£) for the original one, but there's many people selling Type 2 cables they don't need for cheaper (Mini, BMW, etc. or generic cable brands). Can I just get ...
