I guess it's feasible, but as of last year I've never seen a charger at a hotel.
My office had maybe a dozen, which is already not enough—EV drivers were required to go outside and move their cars after a few hours. I don't know how often someone who needs one is screwed.
- Robotbeat 6y agoI always charge at my AirBNB. Just need an external 120V outlet. An RV-style outlet would work for L2 power levels. That’s not that uncommon.
- erik_seaberg 6y agoIs it hard to find one with a garage rather than street parking? They don’t seem to offer a search filter for that.
- Robotbeat 6y agoEach time I've just parked in a driveway and ran a cord to an external outlet. BTW, 63% of US housing units have a garage or a carport. That doesn't even count those that have just a driveway. I have a garage, but I solely park and charge outside (my garage is my COVID work-from-home office space away from the kids...). In a place that experiences 4 seasons.
- erik_seaberg 6y agoI’m a little dubious about that stat. I’ve had a carport space, but it had no power and was hundreds of yards away from my (upstairs) apartment. It’s not an impossible problem but it’ll take a ton of installations approved by property managers and that work has barely started.
