Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at bill@echargeadvisor.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Probably as far as your bladder would let you go. The 2026 Nissan Leaf claims 300 miles. Starting price for that exciting new car is $30,000.


Maybe nothing. Convince your boss to let you do it for free.


About $5 for fifty miles if you live where electricity is expensive.


  

Significantly less. If the electricity is produced with natural gas, not quite half as much as an ICE powered car. If it's solar or wind electricity, way less.


 Rarely, but when they do it can be spectacular. Don't recall any EV disaster photos in 2025.


 Tesla, Nissan Leaf, Chevy Equinox and Bolt, Ford Mustang and Lightning Truck, VW, Volvo, BMW, Toyota, Hyundai and more.


In the company lot or in the apartment parking area, probably two hours on a Level-2 charger will get you 50 miles. Some chargers can do it in one hour.


The property owner might pay about $3 to $5 for the electricity. That could be passed on to you. Installation of the equipment could very easily be less than $1,500 out of pocket for each plug after rebates are counted. 


  No. There’s no electricity in the cord until it is securely and properly attached to the car.


Your car won’t go. It knows if the cord is still connected.


 Overnight. Ten or twelve hours for 50 miles.


Some extras are good. A set of four at your place could get you started. Then as more people show up with their EVs, do a second round. 


Establish protocols. Maybe if more than half of the EV slots are open, then a non-EV can park. In your lot it will be pretty obvious if somebody is being a jerk. If it happens twice, leave them a little love note. 


Sadly, the Federal Government right now isn't encouraging you to get off of fossil fuel. Some states still want to help, though. $3,200 in VT, $2,500 in MA, $2,000 NY, $5,000 NJ, and maybe some help to buy a used EV. (All subject to change, of course.)


 Hard question! Maybe that they’re fun to drive, no engine you have to get wound up to get you going. They’re quiet. No fuss!  No stops at the gas station and no appointments for an oil change. And of course, that good feeling knowing you’re a better a good citizen, putting a little less carbon up where there’s already more than enough.
