Rapid charger outages

D Dastardly · 2019-07-07 13:20:09

What is the main reason for rapid charger outages is it software related? I noticed that the one at Grange Sligo seems to be on and off like a traffic light and I have needed to rely on that a few times.

The efaced (triple head) Portuguese chargers, by far the most common ESB fast charger in Ireland, are pretty unreliable. And when they break, sometimes nobody knows how to fix them, not even a team flown in from the manufacturer. The one in Lucan (busiest fast charger in Ireland) was out for several months last year :rolleyes:

Well TWO rapids are down in Cork city - just Frankfield showing available.

Real pain especially the Blackpool one if you were coming from Limerick/Mallow side.

Edit - that's according to the mapping
