Why did you even go out to
Why did you even go out to write this? You could have done the math on the back of a napkin.
L2 chargers are 240VAC at different current levels. At the local library, there are two, one was 5 KW, one 6.25 KW. At three to four M/KWH, that's from 15-25 miles added per hour. And that's if your car can change the fast! My Mach-E takes all I can give it (home is 240V at 40 Amps), but our Pacifica tops out at just over 6 and the wife's Crosstrek doesn't even hit 4.
There is no myth here, just people who can't or won't use basic math.
Here's a use case that I like. I take my dog to play with other dogs every morning. About 5 of those I cange for one hour for free. That's about 100 miles of free, solar supplies errand driving a week..
DCFC is needed only for long distance driving when one is going more than the cars range in one day. Otherwise one plugs in at night and is good to go.
Yes, it's a valid use case. No, it is not how everyone needs to charge. Also DCFCs are relatively expensive. And the situation is improving. And that's not to dismiss the issue.
I have over 12k miles on my Mach-E. The only time it was an issue was going from the SF bay area to Bend OR. I think it added about 45min to an hour to the trip.
Let's get real. Your article over sold the doom and gloom. Anyone who owns a BEV already knows this.
Here's your entire article in one sentence: L2 charging doesn't add that many miles per hour so plan accordingly.
Done.
