There's no such unit as amps per hour or watts per hour. That's like saying
"gallons per minute per hour." It's a meaningless unit.
Amp-hours per hour and Watt-hours per hour are technica
With a 24kwh battery pack it takes 4 hours for a realistic 7.5kw charger that
actually charges at 6kw to charge a pack that is about 80% depleted.

The e-Golf has a 7.2kW charger on board and L2 charging will take 4 hrs.
So does that mean that it averages 7.5A per hour?
My logic - 7200 watts / 4 hrs = 1800 watts per hour

My logic - 7200 watts / 4 hrs = 1800 watts per hour, 1800 watts per hour / 240v
= 7.5 A per hours. I know that I'm doing something wrong here but I just can't
see it. Some h
