     @kkarhan @digyoursoul No need, it's bullshit by basic math. Even with a very small capacity battery of 30 kwh, charging it in 6 minutes (1/10 of an hour) would be charging at 300 kw. That's 1250 amps at 240 V. The entire main breaker capacity for residential electrical service is usually 200 amps or less. There is no way you're charging an EV battery in 6 minutes. The wire gauge of cord to battery you'd need would be bonkers even if you could get that service.

     @kkarhan @digyoursoul In short your EV charging cable would look like an Eva charging cable.

     @dalias
     OP doesn't talk about whether your wallbox setup can handle that. Commercial charging stations do ~400kW already, afaik.
