[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in DC and people literally run a very long cable across the sidewalk from their house to charge their EVs. Almost all of them have little flat ramps to protect the cable so no one trips on the cable. [/quote] Op, just do this. Don’t try to install a new charger. Just run a 15 amp extension cable from the front of your home to the steer. Make sure the outlet has a GFCI(likely already is with the red black reset buttons). When you want to charge, plug in your charger to that outlet. Maybe nail it to a tree of tie to some other post to keep it off the ground. You could also plug the cable into a smart plug or some other timer. That way you can control the electricity. The only worry is someone taking your charger if you are using one. I’m not sure about the best way to handle that. Overall you are not a good situation for EV or PHEV charging.[/quote]
