My Level 2 TESLA charger has output of more than 22 kW (in fact it operates 100A circuit). Car limits charging to 9 kW. Mercedes WallBox charger has output of 22kW.
What can be done with unlocking 22 kW charging capability without acquiring and installing Mercedes Wallbox EV charger?
Is this software lock and can it be programmed?
I guess MB tries to force consumers to purchase they charger by limiting charging speed from other non MB branded chargers but I thought I would ask. Level 2 charger is Level 2 charger - doesn’t matter if it is MB, BMW or Tesla. Should work the same. Not a big speed difference between 9kW and 22kW - only 30% but nice to use already installed charging hardware without unnecessary investment.
