A 240V 20amp circuit I think would meet the needs of 99% of commuters in the US. If your average miles/kWh is around 3.3 and you’re charging at 80% of the 20amp breaker limit (as you should be), even factoring in 10% losses in power transmission, you’re still charging somewhere around 11 miles per hour. Easy 100+ miles overnight with zero infrastructure change outside of a couple wire nuts and a cheap charger. Hell, depending on local codes, you might get away with slapping in a nema 6-20 receptacle to make it even easier…
And furthermore, you can share your internet from your computer, if running Linux, to other devices via Ethernet or WiFi! There may even be a super hacky way to do it through Bluetooth as well, but I’m gonna assume that wouldn’t be worthwhile to pursue…
Literally finally let my windows partition upgrade to windows 11 last night. It took like 3 HOURS to do. Then I shrunk the partition way down and clean installed my Bazzite dual boot over the extra space and that took MAYBE 15 minutes. I use Windows MAYBE once every 6 months or so. Linux has just been the better experience for 99% of my computing and even gaming needs.
Mine “hangs” for a while but does EVENTUALLY boot. It takes like 3-5 minutes though which is very unusual. It used to boot in a few seconds (nvme ssd boot drive), so at first I was worried maybe the drive was going bad.
Now we just need their software and firmware updates to run in Linux native (or even wine, I’m not that picky). Excellent controllers for the cost.
I’m probably mistaken, but I think there might actually be a plugin for this? I haven’t looked into it myself but I swear I scrolled past a plugin listing similar functionality at some point. Or I could be hallucinating. Or it could even exist but no longer work on the current version of the app. Who knows!?
