I guess what you're asking is: "Will the service department have any way to quick-charge the pack when it is disconnected from the car?" I doubt the Nissan QC will have the charge control circuitry to do this in-built. A fixture could be built which connects between the QC connector and the pack connector(s), but will it? I don't know. This is a question for a trained LEAF service tech.LEAFer said:I have an SV LEAF (no QC).

All those charging stations you mention ... they don't really help me ... I can't save any time.

The service is done by 10:00am (good luck!), probably later.
Not all dealers in the US will have QC, for a while at least; all dealers in Japan will have QC capability right away. I'd think that dealers with far away customers might consider adding this capability sooner rather than later, but it would be much easier if the customer's car had a QC port.LEAFer said:No ... I'm really asking whether the service department at a Nissan LEAF-certifed dealer has realized how long the hold-up/inconvenience is for an owner bringing the LEAF in for service when he/she lives far away. Even if you have the SL with QC, most dealers don't have QC ability;

Think that there will be designated charging station parking spots, a great place for municipalities to raise revenue ticketing people who park there who shouldn't.
