Don't think it's anything related to the EVSE. You could have a 100A capable EVSE, and it would only charge based one what the vehicle was set to (max of 16A on our vehicles).

Each EVSE sends out a pilot signal that announces to the attached vehicle the maximum current it CAN draw, but it has no control over how much it DOES draw. In our vehicles, it seems to arbitrarily, sometimes, reset itself back to 6A with some versions of the firmware in the vehicle. I've noticed that with my 30A EVSE when I wondered why it was taking so long, the vehicle had reset itself back to 6A for some reason.
