I have been wondering recently about charging an electric vehicle whilst on the go.

My thought was the idea of a trailer with a generator, then having a simple sensor so when the batteries get to a certain point (40 % or so) the generator kicks in.

I have asked a car guru at work and at first laughed at the idea, then as it sunk in he thought it would be a great way to extend the range of an electric vehicle. He was rather unsure about the legality of it though.

I'm a newbie poster here, but much like yourself have been hiding in the shadows for many years.
