OK. I am a Naval Architect, not an Electrical engineer.
Besides the obvious... "72 Amp charger can get you to charge faster", why do I need a 72 Amp charger?
Why does Tesla say that 110 and 220 charge times wont change? Is that because I wont pull more than 48 amps off the basic home electrical setup?

Can I even get that many amps out of a residential setup?
If the normal residential setup is limited, is the typical destination charger at restaurants, hotels, etc, high amperage?

I don't have a whole lot of options in the Norfolk VA area. I will install a home charger.

Any advice is very much welcome!
