I occasionally spend a little time watching youtube videos on EV charging stations and the huge problems you find at them. Often half the chargers are broken so you have to wait an hour for an open one. I've never seen mention of a vandalized charger but it's well known that copper is very valuable...what better way for a meth addict to score some easy cash?

Palladium, platinum, and rhodium…

Copper is moderately valuable. Just enough to attract the maggots of society.

It’s a LOT easier than stealing a couple gallons of gasoline to sell at a flea market.

Another win for ICE.

There was a story not too recently where some idiot tried to take copper from an active charging station. The amount of voltage going through those things is substantial. If they don’t know what they’re doing, it’s lights out pretty damn quick.
