I understand this is an old post, but I have the same question and wondering if anyone can provide some Input.

I have a spare dryer outlet (30 amp 220v). The standard BMW 530e charger is meant for a standard 15 amp or 20 amp outlet based on the design of the plug.

Will an adapter (from standard to dryer) work? Any benefit to using 30 amp at 220v VS 15 or 20 amp at 110v? It should charge faster with 30 amp unless the charger self regulates to lower amperage anyway rendering 30 amp dedicated circuit useless.
