Electric Car

A message to Chargepoint, EVGo, Electrify America (and all Auto Manufacturers including Tesla)

I own an electric car .. and I love charging it at home. Do you want to know the best high speed charging? 
It doesn't exist yet. Have you ever tried to co-ordinate your charger and your car with your cell phone on a sunny day in Florida? Not only can you not see the screen on the charger, you can't see the screen on your phone. The first successful charging company will have the following features:

  • High speed only
  • Shade
There are several "level 2" chargers around. Can you consider the thought of driving 175 miles and stopping to charge for 8 hours? I have one in my garage. That's fine. But if I am gonna haul me and my dog to Connecticut, I am gonna have to make major plans.
