L2 are they really slow? 3kw per hr?

Much faster, they are centrally controlled to limit peak site power.

The goal is to provide free 50x L2 80A stations in a single parking structure for the campus and visitors. Parking Spots are not time enforced, so there is no rush to come back to move your car when it is done.

We're doing 2x 150kva transformers(32inx27inx44in), these made the most sense for the wiring size, distance, expected demand, and parking geometry.
