    Couple of new 22kW locations installed recently.

    Main one I'm interested in is "Barack Obama Plaza" (*cringe*) at Moneygall.

    That's fully installed and due to be turned on before Christmas.

    How much faster will these be to charge?

    You'd get a decent charge in 2 hrs with the 6.6 kw as useful as I find it most people don't feel the 900 Euro's extra justifies charging in half the time. Having said that, dealers only buy very few leafs with the 6.6 kw so most people don't have the choice unless ordering brand new.

    30-90% in about 2 hrs. 30-80% in less.

    Roughly 40% per hour @6.6 kw. Could be quiet convenient if a fast charger was down, could be the difference between getting home, or not, or not having to find a fast charger in the first place.
