So here is something we are up against ...
I had my EVSE (Tesla HPWC) installed today. I don't have an EV yet, but at least I have a means to pour electrons onto the driveway, but I digress.
While the job was being performed by the sparky, a neighbour happened to be walking down the street with his dog. "G'day" he says "what you up to?" (it's OK, I get on well with him). "Oh, we're putting in a charger in readiness for my new EV" I say with a big grin. He says "Oh, charging those EVs costs a lot of money". My response (with frown), "Err, no. Actually a lot cheaper that petrol, and I don't have to go to a servo. What makes you say it's expensive to charge an EV?"
... wait for it ...
He says ... "Oh, I read it on Facebook" <and so it must be the truth>
Needless to say, I tried to dispel this notion, but I fear my breath was wasted. And he will be happy driving his ICE car and filling up once a week for >$100.
What's that you say .. "You can lead a horse to water ...."
