> The AC to DC converters that can handle rapid charging are physically huge and There's no practical way to put that inside the car itself. Ahh, that makes more sense now that I think about it. Because of the cross sectional area required to efficiently rectify and transform such high currents, the equipment is either very large (and thus expensive) and heavy (and thus inappropriate for a motor vehicle), or very inefficient (requiring considerable active cooling, and costing a lot more dosh).
