The everyman solution may turn out to be something like 240V 20A on an existing wire run. Just a new breaker & outlet, $20 in parts and 15 minutes labor? 11kW

11kW is nice, but NEMA 6-20 is good for 4kW or ~14 miles per hour, or 120-150 miles per night.
- p1mrx 5y agoThat's a good idea in theory, but you'd have to block off all the 120V outlets on the same circuit. If the existing breaker is 15A, you need a NEMA 6-15, which is 2.9 kW.
