Decreasing fast charging from 30 minutes down to 12 minutes is significant but not nearly as important as lowered battery degradation.
Charging a battery in one minute doesn’t help if the battery degrades by 80% in the process.
Tesla batteries have a 30 minute fast charge that consumers don’t use daily because it degrades the battery.
I’d be happy if QS batteries had a 35 minute fast charge that didn’t degrade the battery.
Based upon disclosed results, QS has managed to decrease charge times AND battery degradation.
You don’t have to pick and choose when you fast charge. Fast charge every time. It won’t hurt the battery.
THAT’S the real selling point.
