I posted this on Youtube, my first two videos ever there. The first video is of me plugging into the 50 kw charge station and the second one of me unplugging the car after returning from a 30 minute walk. I will post a few more video's of the different ways to charge my electric car.
This car has helped change my life and helped me keep my own money and not waste it on gas. I just wanted to show how easy electric cars are to use and once charge stations are more readily available, will be second nature to us all.
Sorry for the near repeat of a previous post. It had FB links before i learned to put the video on YouTube.

Do you have to pay for the charge?

Right now the charge stations are free! I just use an app (props to Green lots) to unlock the charger and i just plug in. If they do start to charge, which should be soon, it'll be cheaper then gas.
An internal gas combustion engine is about 16% efficient at converting gas to movement with a lot of energy lost to heat and friction, why you need oil and a radiator on a car plus other ways to remove heat. An electic car is 60% efficient at converting energy to movement and get this, there is no radiator or even oil in an electric.
In fact, the only maintanence an electric needs is the battery, anything related to the wheels, and windshield wiper fluid. No more oil changes, transmission fluid changes, radiator flushes, or any other regular car maintanence.

Thank you :o) one of the choices that was very scary at first because i hadn't learned of the charge stations in town but once i figured things out, it has been great! Only bad news is the range of my car is 105 miles but in the future i plan to get me a tesla, so i can road trip around the country on electric. so excited :o)
