My main problem is I live in a highrise so I cannot plugin but you know I was thinking about gas cans and sorta wondering if someone makes a hoofable battery setup that would be equivalent. Im wondering if just those ones for camping might work. So figure a five gallon gas can will get you 100 miles. I feel a battery that could handle that distance would be huge though. Thing is you could charge it overnight in the unit and then bring it down in the morning. Not sure how long it would take to do the battery to battery though. Would sorta solve that if it was a affordable enough add on you had to get.

    Charging a battery like that at home would be way too dangerous. Even charging an e-bike or e-scooter battery should be done with care and not overnight, when you are sleeping.

    I also park on the street (or to be precise, my wife does, I take the bus) and have the same problem. Guess our next car will be just a regular hybrid, maybe a plug-in hybrid. An EV is just not an option atm for anyone unable to charge at home. Maybe if the municipalities would finally start to really invest into the infrastructure…
