There is no such thing as a Level 3 EV charger

TIMELINE: 0:00 introduction 0:28 Four Charging Methods of J1772 0:40 J1772 history 0:48 1996 and 2001 Level 3 charging proposals 1:10 J1772 is for conductive charging 1:19 J1773 Inductive charging 1:35 Terminology and electrical principles 1:45 1. All EVs and PHEVs use two different DC batteries 2:22 2. DC Batteries need to be charged with DC power 2:29 3. The 12V battery is charged with power from the high voltage DC battery 2:34 Most off-board chargers supply AC power to the vehicle 2:56 4. AC power is converted to DC power by the on-board charging module (OBCM) 3:45 2018 Tesla Model S P100D OBCM 3:53 2018 Chevrolet Volt OBCM 3:53 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV OBCM 5:18 There are two different J1772 AC charging levels 6:20 There are two different J1772 DC charging levels 6:58 DC Level 1 charging and Tesla charging 7:42 5.
