A few years back I had a Leaf EV. Range was poor. I had a doctor’s appointment at a hospital. Just about within the Leaf’s range. The hospital boasted charging stations. Figured I could charge while at the doc’s visit. Every stall had a top of the line Tesla in it. I bet they all were doctor’s cars. I risked going home and made it with a few miles to spare because the freeway was jammed and the average speed was so low my mileage was way up.
Hmm? This is a strange story. We have to assume that he’s not in a car (=there is a power outlet), or in a house of some sort (=there is power), just strolling in nature with his Ipad. But, why in that case has he brought plug and cable?
And: Never seen a charging station, but i doubt there is a normal socket? And if so, the car can get charged simultaneously.
Seems that is one of many problems the EV folk face. Range anxiety.. then, will there be charger not being hogged by someone shopping.. then, will it work.

I’m pretty sure the voltage the EV stations are packing would be too much for a iPad to handle.

I’m hoping that the final season is better than the 3rd

Strange that he could afford an iPad but not a car charger for it. I think I only paid $12 for mine.

It has a .3 second charging time on a lightning charger.

I’m guessing but i think that should charge his iPad in about 18 sec.

$12 is a good price for an iPad!
