    charging plug will not release from my i3

    We had the same issue two days ago: we were loading at a free charging point, but you needed (any card would do) a charging card to start the loading. It was one charging pole with two outlets, one on each side. You had to present your card in the middle and then you could charge. All OK. When...

    CCS fastcharging station spotted in Drongen (Texaco station)

    Yes, I know that Aalst is a motorway exit and you can hence arrive at the Ibis hotel from both directions, but yesterday we were near Ghent (Drongen Texaco gas station in the direction of Brussels) and there, there is no immediate highway exit to turn around again to the Texaco in the other...

    CCS fastcharging station spotted in Drongen (Texaco station)

    Thank you for the update ! I will certainly try the one at Electrabel in Brussels soon ! I have seen that at the Total station in Ruisbroek, the installation looked old and unkempt (and was not functioning...) We ventured out to the Belgian coast yesterday (+/- 305 km return trip), re-charged in...

    CCS fastcharging station spotted in Drongen (Texaco station)

    Latest info I had a few months ago was that charging was still free but I also did pay for the card (but not 75 Euro! It was less...). I suppose they will have to start charging people at some time.... I do not know about sms or Qr code costs, as it did not work when I was there... Good luck...

    CCS fastcharging station spotted in Drongen (Texaco station)

    Hello again, the one is Aalst is also CCS and it is also from TPC, same access as for the ones in Drongen. You can get to it without problem, it is in front of the Ibis hotel you do not have to pass any barriers.

    Cold weather

    Range has dropped from +/- 145 kms to +/- 120 kms (comfort mode) the last few weeks although it is still not that cold in Belgium (about 10° C) and my car is almost always parked indoors.... We should have the heat pump but I am wondering if maybe they didn't install one (you do not see it so...

    CCS fastcharging station spotted in Drongen (Texaco station)

    Hallo, aan de achterkant van het benzinestation langs de E40. Wij zijn er per toeval op gevallen, want hij is goed verstopt. Er staan wel bordjes met een stekker op om de weg te wijzen. Er is een soort wegrestaurant, En als je daar op het terras gaat, dan zie je ze.
