A data pin connecting vehicle and wall plug will decide on highest common denominator for charging before opening power connection. It would hence be possible to fit into the US residential electrical standard, where a 1 phase 240V with 16A or 32A is available. @Florian Schulz

You have successfully created a piece of FUD. It's value is 0, other than training people how to successfully and calmly answer and defeat any irrational complaint folks might have with electric drive. What a shame that Walmart and e-bay went out of business years ago since products at Walmart and e-bay are so inferior, as Lev claims. What, Walmart and e-bay are actually hugely successful businesses, know for providing access to desirable, functional products, often exactly as advertised, at low prices? So much for Lev's FUD. Poof. Lev, I have not heard much talk about how a gas car will be refueled on site if you park the car on the side of a street in parallel formation or park the car on a driveway but not near a gas station. Based on this, there are obviously no gas cars in existence, as they cannot be refueled everywhere at all times. (BTW, there are more buildings (all with electrical power and outlets) than gas stations). @Lev 100

These work horribly and will make people think it's the car's fault and they will blame the car.
