So for now I'm going with the following the use my EBH...

Home - Running 100' extension cord from my first floor living room window to the EBH. Will pull my car to the nearest possible point from my window a couple hours before departure. This does not block traffic in the parking lot and allows me to use my own power source. Prior to departure I'll wrap up the extension cord, put it in my trunk and I'm off. Sometime in the next week or so I'm trying to find an alternate power source that is easier to plug into (and is free).

Work - Using same extension cord I have access to a plug right next to my normal parking spot...this is ideal. My boss doesn't mind me tapping into the outlet and it's in a safe area where nobody will steal my extension cord or do harm to my EBH.
