259 - The Season 13 Q and A Episode

The EV Musings Podcast

In this episode Gary answers some listener question on topics as diverse as:

• The ZEV Mandate
• The difference between kW and Kwh
• Price parity between BEV and ICE
• Charging past 80% on a rapid charger
• Why is public charging so expensive

We also discuss a semi-philosophical question : Why do some public chargers want you to plug in before authenticating for payment and others want you to authenticate for payment before plugging in?

This season of the podcast is sponsored by Zapmap, the free to download app that helps EV drivers search, plan, and pay for their charging.
