Are New Energy Vehicle Charging Ports Afraid of Rain?
1 Answers
Generally, new energy vehicle charging ports are equipped with waterproofing features, so they are not afraid of rain. More relevant information is as follows: 1. In theory, fast charging for new energy vehicles can cause damage to the battery's lifespan, but discussing the issue without considering the extent of the damage is unscientific. If fast charging is used frequently and results in noticeable lifespan degradation, then there is definitely a problem with the vehicle's fast charging setup. 2. If two vehicles use the same battery cells and have the same slow charging capabilities, both can maintain a cycle life of 1,500 cycles under slow charging conditions. However, one vehicle might be designed to fast charge to 80% in 15 minutes, but with this fast charging mode, the lifespan is only 500 cycles. Another vehicle might be set to fast charge to 80% in 30 minutes, maintaining a lifespan of 1,200 cycles under this fast charging mode. Therefore, the former's fast charging mode should be used as little as possible, while frequent use of the latter's fast charging mode may not show noticeable differences.
