When AC is fed into the vehicle, it goes at the standard 220/230V. As the power output is around 1000W, the current goes upto ~4.5A(lower during CV charging).
At this point in time, I will not be able to share the connector-pin identification diagram.
If a customer who purchases the Ather 450 prefers to not have charging point installed and go for charging cable only, what is your say?
so will the rider get notified for the limit for maximum charge or discharge that the BMS has set ?
Thats cleared up, will we be able to also access this information as to the number of units consumed
@Shreyas is there any attempt of installing new ather grids around Bengaluru? I work near Yelahanka and there’s no ather grid in 10km radius. Is there any idea where and all ather grid will be installed and when?
Given that having a charging Point installed gives a better and safer user experience, overall. That said, if the customer wants a charging cable instead, we will be able to facilitate that and help the customer with the installation of a wall socket in the location, just like for 340 owners.
The limits are pre-set and static. The rider need not worry about them. Over time, based on degradation data from multiple vehicles, we will be able to improve these limits further and make them less conservative, and maybe then we might have an option for the user to set limits. Not in the short-term though.
AtherGrid locations are rapidly increasing in Bengaluru and will keep increasing at a quick pace till early next year. Will slow down after that.
We have been looking for AtherGrid potential locations in Yelahanka and haven’t been able to identify anything workable as yet. If you have any suggestions, please do let us know! We’d be happy to look into it.
Basic criteria for Ather Grid locations:
It will reflect on the receipt for every reimbursement cycle.
We have recently setup an AtherGrid location at TORQ92 near Yelahanka.
Until something even closer comes up, this can be used.
How to find the nearby Ather Grid? Do we have any App already launched?
Nearby Charging points will be available on the Ather App(yet to be released) and also on the vehicle dashboard.
For now, they can be looked up using the AtherGrid App (Available on Play Store and App Store)
Yes, I have downloaded the app from play store and logged in . It asked me to select the model but the Ather vehicles are not available on the list. Can I select any other vehicle and check the Grid location? Will it be same for Ather as well?
The reason why Ather vehicles are not on the list is that they will not need the app, as all vehicles have direct authentication and will start to charge as soon as connected to the charging Point.
You may select any other vehicle from the list on the app to view the locations. As for Ather owners, the locations are directly available on the dashboard and on the Ather App (Yet to be published).
This is to Ather Charging pod installation team. As informed the team came by this morning and installed the charging pod. I am an engineer /ev enthusiast and I should say the team led by Ullas was meticulous to the last detail and did a quick and efficient job of it. Kudos to Ather Energy, many thanks and keep up the good work!
Hey CapShankar,
If possible could you please share your Order ID? Just trying to figure out the current status of queue clearance since there is not official active communication from Ather about the status of orders. My order ID is 1768 slated for delivery in sep-oct but so far haven’t received any communication about the installation, account activation, delivery etc.
Thanks,
Kumar
Hi Kumar,
Mine is 1029. I guess the wait is worth it as early adopters will face issues initially which will be ironed out depending on the feedback the first ones give. Five of us from an EV group who own Revas and E2Os ,have booked 450. Most of us have had years of experience using ev s and many in the group are hobbyists with varied interests. Owning 450, sure is going to be a different experience . A lot of effort has gone in to design it which must be appreciated.
Regards Shankar
Mine is 1088 and when enquired during test drive, was informed that I fall into first 50. So far no communication from Ather team regarding charging set up.
Waiting with reinforced patience !!!
Though there is a degree of disappointment as I was believing that I will get the scooter max by August end, I hope it worth the wait.
Hello people and Ather team,
I am super excited to share that the charging pod has been installed yesterday the charging station looks fab . Special thanks to the team who worked on this "
The service was very good and hope you guys maintain the same and you would be getting our best support from us.
It would be great if Ather team takes some time to appreciate the installation team . Here is a quick bite:
Hi Shruti? What was your order id? So that I can make a guess of when my installation of the point would take place.
