Title: What is the best fast charger to buy for a zero dsr 2016?
Post by: Aikirob on January 29, 2021, 01:55:25 PM
Looking for a new fast charger for my 2016 DSR, i had a prototype charger that David hiley made for me that could plug into 2, 240v 10a house sockets and charge my bike in 2 hours but it broke and I haven't been able to contact him about getting it repaired, so I'll need to buy a new fast charger, I'd like to be able to just use regular 10a house plugs as they are the most convenient way to charge up, any recommendations, obviously faster the better, but It will need to be able to use regular house sockets.

well the simplest solution is to buy a chargetank and a wall outlet to j1772 charge cable. It's the setup I use at home to avoid using the toaster onboard charger.

certainly not the cheapest though.

Yep, charging options are one of the most popular topics that have been beaten to death on this board and even the FB group. You're options are OEM onboard charger upgrades for the S/DS and SR/F-S platforms in various sizes, used diginow chargers or DIY. I'm surprised there isn't a sticky about it; there is plenty of info on here about them if you look around.
