I'm sitting in my electric car,
0:04 → 0:13
I love driving it and today I want to test another fast charging cable,
0:13 → 0:17
I got sent a second one, and I want to thank Absina at this point.
0:22 → 0:26
It costs about 160€, it's a 11kW cable and now I want to test it.
0:27 → 0:34
This is an EV charging cable type 2, which is very important, mode 3, 11kW, 16 amps and 3 phases.
0:35 → 0:37
It comes in a pretty cool bag.
0:37 → 0:40
You can grab it like this and then you have it with you in a bag.
0:40 → 0:42
Okay, let's unpack it.
0:43 → 0:46
I'll just open it, going around like this.
0:46 → 0:49
Alright, now it's open and there's my cable.
0:49 → 0:52
It comes with a manual, and I got my cable right here.
0:52 → 0:56
There is a cap on each plug, which I think is pretty good by the way,
0:56 → 1:02
because my very expensive cable, which I bought with my i3 doesn't have them.
1:02 → 1:10
Here are some technical data, as I just said, it goes up to 400 volts, it's 11kW, 16 amps, three phases.
1:11 → 1:18
It weighs 2kg, operating temperature minus 25 to plus 55 degrees celsius.
1:18 → 1:20
Rated IP55.
1:21 → 1:23
The manual is in English and German.
1:23 → 1:26
We're at the charging station now, so let's try this thing.
1:26 → 1:31
Out of the bag, you remove those two, of course, they are just for transport.
1:32 → 1:34
And then let's see.
1:35 → 1:39
There's velcro here, they really did a great job.
1:40 → 1:42
Cool, that's very cool.
1:43 → 1:46
And the cable length is
1:48 → 1:49
five meters.
1:49 → 1:51
So, charging station, car.
1:52 → 1:54
The car is open, so first the charging station.
1:55 → 2:00
As you can see, this one doesn't have a cap on it, and they also usually don't come with a cap.
2:00 → 2:05
And I think it's really super cool that this one has a cap on each side.
2:07 → 2:10
So, again, cap off.
2:11 → 2:13
In, it clicked.
2:14 → 2:16
Blinking, it's locked.
2:16 → 2:19
And it's already charging.
2:21 → 2:25
Removing is also very easy, cap back on.
2:26 → 2:27
Remove this too.
2:28 → 2:31
Now wrap it again, as usual.
2:34 → 2:37
Tighten the strap, done, and now I can pack it up again.
2:37 → 2:39
Back in the bag.
2:41 → 2:45
There's a zipper on each side and it's packed again.
2:45 → 2:46
That's it.
2:46 → 2:49
This is an 11kW charging cable from Absina.
2:49 → 2:55
Weight about two kilos, great quality, price about 150€, I'll put the link below.
2:55 → 2:59
There isn't much more to say, I'm glad I got it.
2:59 → 3:02
Made in Germany makes it twice as cool, to me anyway.
3:02 → 3:08
I am Bernd, you are watching hoTodi, until next time, take care, bye.
