Had a question from a different view - that is the rudeness of some people regarding EV chargers.
I hear about people unplugging others cars so they can charge theirs - that's bad enough - but I've also seen videos of people unplugging peoples cars from in front of their homes (a condo for example or row houses in the UK etc..) so they can charge their vehicle and being like - well I needed to charge my car. It's like these people seem to think electricity is free - its not for the most part - even if you have solar if you use more than you make its not free.
I'm sort of surprised that is not more locked down.
I know that if I installed a charger Id probable have it on a switch to turn it on and off.
I guess if someone just disconnects it and connects it to there car when you are charging a switch will not help.
As I said before - I'm not ready to go electric - and its not ready for me - but I've thought about it.
