[QUOTE="TwoForFlinching, post: 3573596, member: 24500"] I was curious seeing that a rapid charger was some $10k in the comments, did a little googling since I generally don't believe anything I read online. While I don't doubt early home charging was expensive, you can be into a Level 2 rapid charger between $400-$800 depending on your available garage power. These will recharge your empty batteries in 6- 8 hours without any capacity degradation. Tesla says using a supercharger infrequently won't affect battery capacity, but using it too often will... but it's a technology not available to 99% of homes in the US since 3-phase is so rare in residential areas. What comes with an ev vehicle is a level 1 trickle type charger that can fill capacity back overnight if it fits your use... people who commute with an ev, 30-40 miles per day. [/QUOTE]
