Eric does a good job of mentioning "fast" charge of a 150kwh battery in a full size vehicle. I am curious how consumers will deal with home charging of such a large battery. To keep charge times under 12 hours, If GM marries two 7.2kwh chargers to each full-size truck as I suspect they will, I have to wonder what electrical conversations will take place when folks have to buy a 60-70 amp EVs and install 80amp service. While you can get away with a volt or bolt at lower amp home charging on a home with 100 amp service, I think even 200 amp service might be a strain to add 60 continuous amps for 8-10 hours a night.
