    This guy knows his stuff. Just retired from CATL. 1h24minutes.
    I have to go through it again as it was very in-depth and covers so many topics.

    How many tried to charge on the 2 AC chargers at Costa/Homestore & More?

    Such a waste. Why they exist when they cannot be operated baffles me.

    In this video Guillaume demonstrates three things:
    - Driving from Cork to Dublin in his BMW i3 fully electric vehicle
    - Loading several large items at Ikea
    - Comparison of charging at different chargers, including a 150kW ESB charger at Kilcullen

    You're far too kind to the quality of the charge points. Cashel RFID didn't work, app was very slow, no complaints. Kilcullen maxed out around 48kW when the car should be able to pull more and you say "that's really good". That's pathetic. You got more on the 50kW unit in cashel.

    If I have a leaf that does 60km to a charge and my wife has a leaf that does 120km to a charge, will it cost exactly double to charge her car?

    Do you have to go to the main dealer when it breaks down

    Not exactly but close enough not to matter.

    Bear in mind range depends on how heavy your right foot is so it’s not a black/white answer.
