Stu said:What would happen on a rapid charger if you hit the emergency stop button?
Presumably it would just shut down and stop charging the car it was attached to?
I'll try that next time

I tried to unplug the LEAF (I could see on the dash it was full).
The IKEA/ecotricity machine wouldn't allow my card to end the charge going to the LEAF, and I was unable to remove the LEAF's cable from the car.
How did the Leaf driver manage to disconnect you?

And I thought most people with green credentials were chilled, and very laid back. If your Leaf is powered by Drax power station (or similar coal fired powered station), you're probably less green than you thought, and less than a 1.2L petrol supermini driver.pkulak said:I drive a Leaf, and a car left on a quick charger with no one in it drives me nuts. If it was a car with a 2.0-litre gas engine, I'd probably lose my damn mind.

Can't see why there needs to be someone in it. As said above, it doesn't charge any quicker whether you're sat in it or out getting a coffee. However, if you meant "and charge was completed" then yes I would tend to agree, though it's irrelevant whether there is an engine under the bonnet or not.pkulak said:I drive a Leaf, and a car left on a quick charger with no one in it drives me nuts.

The only time I wanted to get a charge from my local IKEA (my son was playing football nearby), I pulled in at 9.15am to find a Leaf charging. Hung around to see if the driver was around or not (IKEA opens at 9.30 btw), and he did eventually return about 9.45. Leaf was still charging then... he disappeared again and it didn't finish charging until after 10.00am. So that's 45 minutes to get from empty (presumably) to 80%....MHS said:Out of interest pkulak, how long does a LEAF take to charge from empty?
