    thanks guy, I felt like just adding it into total costs, but people seemed to think you cant calculate it that way... not sure why or who's right or wrong, but I'm just seeing that its simple to just take total system costs, and as you said divide by max bill savings and figure out years for...

    How and why higher speed charging is more efficient

    ZOM. I love you. Hahaha wow. So thanks for explaining that in depth there man. I love it. so for me in Hawaii. I think we’re at .33 cents a kWh?? So it would add up slowly over time which is kinda cool. Obviously as you state the lower the kWh the worse payback rate would be, or vice versa...

    Does battery degradation mean...

    Guys. Always wondered as batteries age and lower rated miles.. Does that mean we are “using” the same amount of power to charge the car and see less return over time.

    Which charger is everyone going with? wall charger or portable plug in?

    Jason. Get the 240 and thank us later. as someone here said before. It really means you can’t afford the car if you can’t pay to get 240 installed. There’s more then just the payments. That means 240 should go under maintenance.. if you can’t get 240 how can you afford tires later??? thia...
