sorry for going off topic, mate. I suppose you may have possibly accidentally set off a lively discussion?

Assuming you're in such a scenario, and you drive an EV within the confines of civilization, I'd suggest a pocket with cash for the homeowners you want to plug your extension cord into (assuming the charger is onboard.....)
