How does the calculator know the charging power curve?

Once you pick a model from the EvCompass catalogue, its usable battery capacity and charging power curve fill in automatically — there is no spec to type in yourself.

Why does the post I pick change the time so much?

A post never delivers more power than its own rating, even when the car's curve would allow more at that moment. On a 50 kW post, a car capable of 150 kW still charges at a speed capped at 50 kW for the whole session.

Is the power curve measured by the manufacturer?

No. When the curve is calibrated, it means we shaped it to match ONE claimed figure from the manufacturer's own data (e.g. 85 kW, 0-80%, 35 min) — that is one data point, not a measured charging run. Where no such figure exists, the curve is entirely estimated from the car's specs instead. Neither one is a measurement.

Charging time

Start of charge (%)

The state of charge you start the session from.

End of charge (%)

The state of charge you end the session at.

Charging post power

The post's maximum rated power — the car never draws more than this, even where its own curve would allow it.

Custom station power (kW)

Enter the station's real rating if it differs from the three typical values above — e.g. the power printed on a specific charger's spec sheet.
