30 minutes is the BEST you can hope for

Hmmm…my pool pump costs $70 per month to run about 8 hours a day. This draws more electricity for more hours to charge. Driving two cars at $5 a gallon for gasoline, my monthly gas bill is around $130.

That tells me I would spend AT LEAST as much for electricity alone per month right now to charge electric vehicles at home as I do on gas today. Probably more. And electricity is going up every bit as fast as gas.

I’m not seeing any benefit whatsoever…only massively magnified inconvenience. Which is something I don’t have time for in my life.

“30 minutes is the BEST you can hope for”

That is providing that there is no line at the charging station if you are away from home.
