Finally I have a found a video explaining in detail how these non Tesla charging stations work. I do not have the car yet and wont until I see how these non Tesla chargers work. Thank You!

This is wonderful! Super helpful for new owners and prospective owners to help navigate public charging. One of the biggest things, that you cover well, is the max charging rate for a particular vehicle and particular station. It is NOT the same as a gas station where the fuel goes into the car at the same flow rate. The analogous flow rate for EV chargers depends on its max flow rate (marked on the charger like 100kW or 350kW...etc) and the max that the particular vehicle can accept (this is usually NOT marked on the car and there is simply NO WAY TO TELL! -usually). You have to Google it! Kyle tells folks all the time and this is hard to understand, dealerships have a hard time with this as well.

Great video! So helpful as a full overview of charging at EVgo

FYI, you are beautiful. The information you share is beautiful. Thank you for helping to make the world a better place!

[durkjenkins]

The autocharge is something else I did not know and good to know. Thank You!

Glad to see that EV go now has seamless plug-in charge.

Good Job Ryan having this colleague do this part. EVgo IS The most expensive out there for daily/weekly usage, about same in Calif.13-17 per sessh.

I’ve had great luck with EVgo using Autocharge on my Bolt EUV. Other than taking a bit longer than I’d like to actually start, it works really really well. I always use EVgo when traveling over other networks if there’s a choice.

How ‘bout that…I didn’t know I could set up plug-n-charge on our Mach-e for EVgo. Going to find a station tomorrow and give it a try. More EA stations in this part of the country, but always good to have options.

This was very helpful video. Thank you. I just got an EV went to charge at a EVgo by my house and it didn’t work but I think it was me not the machine. People charge their all the time and so does my neighbor. So I found this very helpful

[LewisFriso]

Great intro! I feel so out of the loop and now i feel in the loop. Seriously, game changing video for me thanks for it!

[RashmiRambhad-zr]

Excellent correct information really helped without app. Thanks and bless you.

[gcnphilly]

[marykraft]

Loving your videos. I think they will be very helpful to new EV owners.

[Cpiaza]

You forgot to mention that Evie go holds $30 when you process by credit card on the machine

[Rinifi]

If I charge a volt using one of the high power units, will there be a problem?

[csjytview]

Great EVgo starter video. Would you please have a link in the 4:58-Minute chapter about how to get a Physical Card for paying with an RF ID Card without using their Android App? Thank you so much.

[epiclife]

i hope they put more of the dc charging by chargepoint, bec these evgo dc are so heavy and bulky, my grandma couldn’t charge her own car(too heavy for elders), i have to do it all the time.😢

[vufirst]

Thanks for the video. I downloaded the EVGO app and it looks like I will need to join a plan like $7/month to be able to use their charger. Hope I missed something there 😂
