Why don't you recommend DC fast charging all the time?

Updated over a week ago

DC fast charging is convenient, but using it too frequently can affect the long-term health of your battery. High charging power generates more heat and stress, which may reduce battery performance over time.

For this reason, we recommend a balanced mix of AC and DC charging whenever possible. AC charging is gentler on the battery and ideal for regular use, while DC fast chargers are best reserved for longer trips or when you need to charge quickly.
