Hi,
I was at the Holiday Inn in Winchester earlier today, they have an EV car charging point that seems to be rapid charge capable....

I bought a 32 A 7pin to "normal" cable and plugin in my outlander popped in for a coffee and came back to find only 4 miles had been added to my range. I am assuming I need to use the Chademo socket for rapid charging. This charge point has no cable, so do I need a 7 pin to chademo cable, and is this safe to plug my car into? I was expecting the rapid charge point to have a chademo cable on it. I didnt ask the hotel of they had a cable, as mine fitted. I am not sure what type of charger this is as its on no maps, but its in a very handy location for me and its free so I would be keen to rapid charge from it if possible.
Thanks for any help
