Your charger says 150 kW.
It gave us 65.

Both bays empty. No fault reported. Ampere plans South African EV trips on what chargers actually deliver and what drivers actually experience — never on the number printed on the cabinet.

Every other planner trusts the operator

Measured power, not claimed power

Median peak from real sessions, recorded only when the adjacent bay was empty — so power sharing is never mistaken for a fault.

Reliability from attempts

Worked 14 of 17 attempts tells you more than 4.2 stars. Outcome mix, success rate and when a site was last confirmed working.

It compounds

Every logged session sharpens the measured figure and every route plan built on it. The dataset gets better as drivers use it.

How a plan is built

  1. 01Road geometry, driving distance and terrain come from Mapbox.
  2. 02Charge sites within 5 km of the route are collected in order along it.
  3. 03Every feasible combination of stops is simulated — up to 256 of them.
  4. 04The fastest one that never drops below your reserve wins. The rejected ones are shown to you with the reason.
