The guy must be an effing idiot. Only an idiot would attempt to charge on 120v.

The article states and video shows that he used 240. The 120 was for demonstration purposes.

The cost of the additional 240 device is about $500, according to the article.

Still took him 24hrs for 100%

Or someone who didn’t know how much it would cost to upgrade his electric and/or research any code issues...

Hmmmm....

You’re right. He’s an effing idiot.

At least the idiots charging at 120V may still have electric bills that are less than their mortgage since they’ll be driving less with the 4 day charge cycle.

Hmmmmm, I do it every night for a plugin hybrid Chevy volt. Plug it in after dinner, unplug and use it all day after breakfast. Of course it has a pretty fixed range of 35 miles, but that is what works for my use. Plus in the used market it cost less than $10k. Different strokes for different folks.

Idiots post without reading the article.

He is NOT attempting to charge on 120v.
