Anybody who signs up for it has lost his mind.

That’s right.
It reminds me of people who signed onto their power company’s “free” smart thermostats. Little did they realize after signing up, they had no control over their thermostats on hot days.
I know someone that did this and instantly regretted it. Of course, she didn’t listen to me when I told her NOT to sign up. She had a house renovation done on her house and got rid of that smart thermostat. There was a day where it was 105 F and she couldn’t lower it below 88 F. I would have ripped that damn thing off the wall that day.
After a significant number of charge cycles, A lithium batteries maximum charge capacity will decrease. Most electric vehicle batteries have an estimated 1500 to 2000 charge cycles. So does this cut the life of the battery in half?
