    Can you get high from putting an electric charger in your mouth? Asking for a friend.

    *If so can you change the port of delivery?

    Charger locks in place on mine. Can't remove it without the 'key' being within a few feet.

    Yes it's electricity abuse and it's called jacking on.

    No, I didn’t. People can install outlets if there is demand for them. They can be secured if necessary as well. My comparison to gas stations is to illustrate that we will go to great lengths to make transportation convenient, and installing more outlets is waaaaay easier to maintain than a network of gas stations, which we are already doing.

    Will work as long as the initial supply of said electricity is readily available. How many places already ask consumers to shut down electrical devices to keep the grid going?
    Ironically where I like, much of the electricity is generated from Natural Gas sources.

    You’re applying a 2022 resources issue to a 2035 problem. There was a massive shift to renewable electrical generation in the past 12 years - it will be monumental in the next 12.

    Then the grid should be upgraded. And it will be.

    It's going to be very difficult to toss an EV battery into the ocean. I'll accept that challenge when I'm ready.

    do any of those 1/3 of non garage owners have a driveway to their house?

    last client house I built has no garage but miraculously we managed to put an EV charger on the side of the house , the charger comes with a cable to plug in the car

    I’m sure it will soon be code to supply EV charging for new construction of multi family homes and apartments.
