I think one of these would be a quicker charge for the EV Eevo

So what's funny about that? If it couldn't reach a charge point then it could be charged with a generator. So what?

the bumper sticker
what do generators of that size run on?

What was interesting the two running already with 48 more now ordered. ROI looks really good. I was thinking Japan would be the first. Frogs sold us Submarines and now have possibly the first wave of new tech I think might be the real EV evolution.

Adding this one below which is "NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE"! Comments re Japan at about 3:40 and so much more of interest in my thoughts. Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games to use hydrogen fuel. According to numerous news outlets and documents shared by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG), the organising committee of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games, is planning to create a 6,000-unit Olympic village which will function on hydrogen (H2) fuel link
With Korea, Japan Germany and England all moving quickly to Hydrogen I suspect my thoughts of a battery powered Disco 3 just might change to a fuel cell

I see Boris Johnson has promised to spend 500 million pounds so everyone in England and Wales is within 30 miles of an EV charging point.
He's also promised to increase offshore wind generation from 30 to 40 GW, creating 9000 jobs.
Very forward thinking, particularly from a Conservative politician. There seems to be agreement about alternate energy policies in the UK, which is aiming for zero emissions. Great to see.
I can't post the link because it's a political story, but you can find it in the UK politics section of The Guardian news website.

I think for aust all these charging points are generally a waste of money.
Great out on the highways and maybe the random towns. Or mine routes between places.
But most users would take there car home and plug in over night while they are watching tv and sleeping.
In my case if I had one. Why would I drive to the local supermarket to charge my Tesla.
When I could have plugged it in overnight.
Oh and I have seen the new local Tesla Supercharger used for the first couple of days. And I am not sure I have seen a car there since.
