The Tesla Wall Charger cable is 24' I believe. And there are Extension cables so you get about 50'. Just sayin' in case you ever get the EV urge... That Neue Klasse just might be one incredible EV!
That's what I do. I run an extension. I just leave it on at all times for ease of use.. I'd could reach a Tesla backed up to the front of my garage door if necessary. That will come into play when my oldest starts driving if she wants an EV.
I have no idea what your electric rate is but what would that cost at $.42 kWh?
$0.42 kWh? That’s your home rate? Superchargers here are $0.39 kWh. My home rate is $0.13 kWh. With taxes figured in that number is roughly $0.17kWh.
Not too often above 250 a day, but 200 is pretty common, but we have charging at work(level2 and fairly expensive though), so those days work fine. It's more the 200-300 mile weekend trips in the winter, as the range drops off, and you need a 110V overnight just to maintain range with a car below -10 or -20C?
From the time you turn the nozzle on until it clicks off is 5 minutes. Now account for the time to start the pump with your credit card, the time to divert from your path into the gas station, the time circling the gas station for an open pump, and the time to resume your route.
Corrected it for you.
LOL. Mind frigging himself eh? He's just making an apples to apples comparison for HIS use case.
It sure is, at one time (it still may be) we had some of the highest electric rates in the USA outside of Hawaii.
Absolutely irrelevant how many total hours there are in a year, or 5 years.
Ah yes Costco. When I had my Navigator, I frequently filled up there as it's usually the cheapest gas around. But I had to get get off the freeway where I would not have otherwise, and I usually had to wait to access the pump. sometimes for 2 or 3 other vehicles to fill up. Another time sink for an ICE vehicle.
It's not that expensive to find one with an EV charger, you just need to use a hotel search engine with the ability to filter on that feature. We've stayed overnight at a hotel with a free L2 charger for less than $100.
That's kind of besides the point. Yes, flying always wins and we usually do so as well if it's more than 400 miles away.
You can route plan to arrive at home with a useful state of charge. I do this frequently. I don't want to arrive at the destination with battery below 20%. There are route planning tools like ABRP that will do this for you.
CA energy rates are crazy expensive, and PG&E likes to burn down our forrest's.
Insane rate. You'd go broke driving a low efficiency EV like my Lightning for sure, if you drive a lot.
Yeah. At my electricity rates they will never pay for themselves, however, at CA energy rates it's got to look a lot better.
EV charging methodology is different than gas. On the road, you don't necessarily charge to full; you charge for 15 minutes, or whatever, and get back on the road. 15 minutes can get you 200 miles, depending.
Yeah that would be like $30 to actually answer your question.
