QUESTION
Hi John,
I'm considering buying an EV; looking at the BYD when it arrives.
But the minister for war and finance and I sometimes want to get away from The Burbs and go to Dingo Creek. But the charging could be a problem.
My Q is: What are the ifs, buts and whatever of using a portable gen-set to charge the battery? Pure sine wave? Inverter type? Practicality?
Your comments?
Look forward to your input and thanks again for your efforts.
