[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need an upgraded electrical panel so I am planning for one to support a car charger. We drive so little already, though, that it will be a while before we should replace our cars. Can anybody point to research on crash safety? I don't know if the battery is actually a concern or if that was rumor.[/quote] You really don't need the super charger at home, and it isn't great for the battery to use one every time you charge. We plug in to the normal outlet every night. It is rare that the car gets below 70% charged anyway. We only use supercharges on long vacation drives, when we'll charge at a rest stop while eating a meal (an you don't need to charge to full when you stop, of course; just enough to get home and plug in for the night).[/quote] Thanks! This is helpful. In my situation we still need the panel upgrade as it's already insufficient but it's nice to know I don't need to buy the charger. [/quote]
