Well, That’s One Way to Sell Americans on Electric Cars. The U.S. has been wary of EVs. As the cost of gas soars, we’re now paying the price. (www.theatlantic.com)

If you want the battery bank for grid independence, it’ll do that

We have a little battery (1200Wh) that will run the refrigerator overnight, so if a storm is on the way we set that in-line incase the power goes out, don't worry about the freezer - we can get the gasoline generator cranked up in the morning if needed. They call it a generator, it's as heavy as a generator, but only outputs the power that you get from about 8 ounces of gasoline before it's needing a recharge.
