But Bala was quickly hit with the reality of owning and operating an EV soon after the purchase. The vehicle compelled him to install two chargers – one at work and one at home – for $10,000. To accommodate the charger, he had to upgrade his home’s electric panel for $6,000.
this is insane.
I bought the Tesla mobile charger for 230$
An electrician down the street installed a nema 15-50 output in my garage for 450$.
Total: 700$
some people already have the nema 14-50 port.
I don’t need a charger at work. Because I charge my car at home. Why is he installing Two outlets? And why does it cost so much?
Before I take a road trip I will use the super charger map https://www.tesla.com/supercharger
and I will bring my mobile charger with me. And it can charge at camp sites and in dryer outlets just fine.
