Difference between ACChargingEnergyIn and DCChargingEnergyIn #255

I am currently charging my car with an AC charger. These are the latest values:

ACChargingEnergyIn: 16.24488913095765
DCChargingEnergyIn: 15.659999649971724

Does anyone know the exact meaning of both values? My guess is that ACChargingEnergyIn is the energy that is entering the car's charger and DCChargingEnergyIn is the energy that is eventually entering the battery?

Even so, how can I detect whether the car is AC or DC charging?

I’m no expert, but it seems like you might be onto something. If the ACChargingEnergyIn shows the energy from the charger and the DCChargingEnergyIn reflects the energy actually added to the battery, then I guess you could compare those values. Note it's possible that during DC charging, ACChargingEnergyIn could also drop to zero. There's nothing that trial and error won't answer, so I would advise exploring both options.

And I came across another field that could be useful: FastChargerPresent.
