On purpose I have charged my old lead acid EVs off a portable genset.
When we would travel to mission lake it was just outside the range of our old batteries round trip.
I would charge a few hours with a generator I brought along, then be able to make it home without range anxiety.
It was still higher "fuel" economy than any other car we owned at that time and the trip was still mostly electrically motivated.
Now that I own a volt that has a built in generator such antics aren't necessary
