Same with Steve Cohen, the congressman. Burned up his car collection, too.

“Before buying an EV, have a qualified electrician install a dedicated circuit for your charger as older home wiring may not be suitable.”

No need to do all of that.

All you need to do is go to your breaker box, pull our two 240 volt breakers and replace the breakers with stacks of copper pennies.

This is a standard common-sense type of list of suggestions but since the actual cause of the fire is not mentioned... it is fairly safe to assume that none of the items on the list had anything to do with this fire.

Are they sure this fire wasn’t some idiot neighbor or their own stupid college kid striking a blow against Tesla?

So the charger was so embarrassed to be a Tesla product it immolated itself?😀

Better idea is to not purchase an EV in the first place.
