A slower charging network could be useful for putting a charging station at every parking space at say workplaces, where your car will be left for an extended time Slower chargers are presumably cheaper to build and run, so they might make more sense there. But otherwise completely agreed that superchargers are basically the only type of charger that makes sense for 99% of the rest of use cases that a gas station would normally take care of.
- NickM 10y agoYeah if there were parking garages or lots where every parking space had a charging port, that would be awesome, and could actually be part of a practical solution in the long term. Unfortunately most garages I've seen have somewhere from zero to two spots in the entire garage :(
- greglindahl 10y agoFacebook HQ has around 150 L2 chargers. It's just a matter of time.
- Teever 10y agoI'm not exactly sure what facebook having 150 car chargers has to do with the rest of the world getting car chargers.
- greglindahl 10y agoThey aren't the only company with more than 0-2 chargers per parking lot, I could name a bunch of others. The point I'm making is that more chargers are on the way.
