It seems like the Varg charger is very similar to the Alta charger. I don't have any experience with the Alta charger. Is the Alta charger 110V or 220V?

They are saying 2 hour charge time for a 6kWh battery. Seems like a 110V @ 15 amp wouldn't supply enough power for charge that size battery in that time period, but I'm just guessing...

alta is 220, but i have a 110 adapter. not sure if alta sold it or if someone on the alta forum engineered them.

Both Alta chargers can operate on 120v or 240v with the proper adapters. I'm pretty sure Stark is using the same Elcon 3.3kW charger that Alta used, so you should expect very similar charge times as the Alta.

For what its worth, with my Alta MXR and the rapid charger (240v), i go from 1/3 SOC to full (including about 5 min of balancing at the end of the charge cycle) in about 70 minutes. On 120v, you would expect about twice the time required.
