Superhero Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Description: An option to force the route with no charging stops Use Case: I would try to avoid charging as it takes time, costs money, charger might be broken etc. So for me it would make sense to force ARBP to plan without charging stops. This by maybe choosing smaller roads and suggesting lower speeds. Knowing my neighborhood I can easily go these 70-80kmh roads making the trip 20km shorter and still make it safe. Today it often suggests going on a longer route to connect with a freeway and adding only like 10-20% on a 50kW DC charger when you could have gone a shorter route with no charging stops.

caf Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I suspect you can get this effect by setting the 'avoid this charger' option on each charger near the route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there are workarounds but how efficient is that? Also I'm not sure if clicking avoiding chargers or are permanent or only for just the specific planed route?

TomTomZoe Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Avoing chargers is permanent for all future route plannings until you allow these chargers again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryH Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 @SuperheroCan you try including a long "fixed charge time to open OCP port". I expect that setting that to 50minutes, the planner will indeed try more efficient routes or using lower speeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect that setting that to 50minutes, the planner will indeed try more efficient routes or using lower speeds Might try that just for fun, but I really don't like work arounds. It's not really a problem, I can also manually add waypoints on this smaller route to force it there. On google maps you can for example click and drag the route to fine tune it. And in the end I will still go that route as I know it, but traveling where I'm not familiar it might help. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhero Posted August 17, 2021 Author Share Posted August 17, 2021 I now found a variant of this available which is great!!! I would still want to specify the exact number or a tic box to try to route with no stops. Great progress anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
