Exploding batteries, not good. There was already a solid argument against electric cars because the grid cant handle the extra burden, lower speeds and shorter distance limits, not to mention the much longer refeuling times. Random blasts and huge fires like this pretty much ends the argument. Not a good idea, find something else.

The authorities are yet to conclude the reason for the fire.

It's the goddam EV car batteries, ya damn Fool! Figure about $7,000,000 worth of vehicles just burned up!

Electric vehicle charging stations use high-voltage electricity. These chargers are mostly high-capacity DC current chargers that use an astonishing amount of power through a complicated system.

Need I say more? Saving the planet my ass.

They may be the next push for the future, but there is a lot of baloney and spin in that report, plus, no one has yet explained how we are going to power all of these rechargeable vehicles when our electric grid is already inadequate, crumbling and failing in many ways just to survive storms and power normal things like AC, not to mention that many hydroelectric dams are worried about dwindling water supply in the west right now.

We'll prolly end up buying chargers for the house. They're not that expensive, around $600, and the prices will come down when more people get EVs.

But that doesn't solve where all the electricity will come from. The chargers don't MAKE the electricity, they merely convert it back to DC to charge the car with while maybe changing the voltage. So that is a big loss right there, not to mention the initial losses for inverting the green-produced DC power to AC to begin with.

HAHaha.... yeah... hilarious.
The $600 are pieces of shit.
To get a good charger, with installation it will run between $1,500 - $7,000.
The high end sound too much?
Not if your house doesn't have enough juice in the main breaker.
And over half of all homes also don't have a garage.

We can keep going.
... $600... hahahaa

People here do not know. It isn't as much as buying gas which is $6/gal in Cali on average.

Key takeaways about powering an electric car​

---

• On average, a Level 2 EV charger uses 7,200 watts, or 7.2 kilowatts, of electricity
• Over a month, an average EV driver uses 408 kilowatt-hours on car charging.
• It costs an average of $57.90 to charge an electric car for a month, and $695 to run for a year
• The best way to save on electricity is to install solar panels. Start comparing your options on the EnergySage Marketplace today."

The funniest part of the article was when they said, This is not an electric vehicle-related fire.
