minus-squareHerbGrower@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 month agoDoes it matter at work? Just looked it up and apparently 10-20kWh per 100km is fairly typical for normal size EVs and 30 or so for American sized ones. So even a regular ~2kW socket would be plenty. For the amount of time it is parked at work it would fully charge from any normal commute.
