He may also have only stopped there briefly to film the segment.
At best he simply used the charger wrongly. At worst, it was deliberate.
Besides, will any of us really charge the i8 away from home, or perhaps work? I will only charge at home I expect.

Even when he's using the iPhone app it shows on the app there is a charging error so he would have known about it. Then if you look at the screen when he returns to the ecotricity charge point it clear States that the "charge launch time had expired". Now this comes about if you initiate a charge and don't connect in a reasonable time to the car and given that there was extra footage of him pretending to not know how to do it, it's more than likely it simply timed out and needed him to re-authenticate against his account and start the charge again.
