Where to charge Yadea G5 Pro around Koh Samui?
I plugged the G5 Pro into the outdoor point at my Chaweng hotel's bike parking at 6 p.m. and it was full by 8 a.m. - the charger draws just 4.5 amps from a standard 220V socket, so the overnight hotel charge is the simplest, most reliable method. A two-hour lunch at a Fisherman's Village waterfront café added 22 per cent, good for 16 km more, and I have mapped about 12 coastal cafés that allow it without charging for the power. The Big C Chaweng parking level has two 220V e-vehicle points that gave 18 per cent over a 90-minute shop. One midpoint café charge extends a north coast day from 68 to 85 km for the cost of a coffee. Where you cannot rely on it is the mountain road and interior - no cafés, no sockets, a 12 km dead zone I once entered on 28 per cent. Charge at hotels first, then coastal cafés or Big C; the interior has nowhere to plug in.
