Was that a plug for the acceptance of gay month? Shocking!
Even an extension cord can figure out what those freaks cannot
LOL
EV’s are for societies that can no longer to the maths...
Eliminate the charging cable at the station. Provide a cable with each car to plug into the station.
Make it simple, maybe some type of color-coded spring clamps on each end...
“Florida...their first direct hit Hurricane”
Florida houses for the past 30 years have been designed and built to handle worst-case hurricanes.
Older houses are being retrofitted with truss straps.
Some houses like mine built in 1978 have their trusses (and truss plates) connected by spikes to straps embedding in wall concrete. I will add the code-specified truss straps when I reroof my house.
People who live in a flood zone will generally be wise to flee even if their house is built or retrofitted to an updated code.
When fleeing don’t wait until the battery is low. Pick a ready-to-use charging place before the battery gets low. Charge in say metro Orlando and don’t wait to get to Ocala where chargers might not be available.
My guess is the polltakers ask leading questions.
Q: If you can get 200 miles of range in 15 minutes is that good enough for you?
A: Oh sure.
The 40% that answered negatively have some idea of whats going on with DC fast charging.
In flood areas hurricane force winds can turn debris into battering rams. Because of Katrina much of the Mississippi coast was obliterated to about 1000 feet inland.
Pure copper has the best current flow. Any added elements reduces the flow, but may increase strengtn.
Now, over at the recycling center, how does the center know that you are bringing in some alloy that is worth more?
Not sure if we have even one charging station in our town unless it’s a home station. We do have some of those EV’s unless maybe one or two have caught fire since I typed this.
Several years ago the cast of “Top Gear Uk” posited that pre teens and teens will go around yanking out cable from EVs. Owner thinks it charged all night but the power level will be zero.
I think all Target stores have EV chargers.
How many times has it been known & written that CO2 is Not pollution. Yet the ignorant government types still don’t get it.
I’m old enough to remember when thieves stole all the gasoline pump hoses. It was a trying and stressful time.
The pump don’t work cause the vandals took the handles
AP discovers the corollary to John Adams’ statement about the Constitution being fit only for a moral and religious people. When you no longer live among a moral and religious people and in fact encourage crime, you cannot leave valuable charging cables unattended.
Life in the US is going to have to change in many ways if we leave the unicorn believers in charge.
What chance does the thick copper cable needed to charge an electric vehicle have of lasting a night in our crime ridden Bidenvilles.
Gas stations in some of our more lawless cities have become hot spots for car jackings and armed robbery. Fueling your car at a gas station has already become one of the most dangerous things you can do in high crime areas these days.
Could have told you that from the beginning.
Seems like the best fix.
Then they'll just steal the cable from the car.
Now if we can only get them to take the car too.
