Was featured in the news yesterday...
Although it was a few seconds, but it shows me plugging in my i3.
Charging it in Santa Monica
I talked a little while on camera to the reporters and explained to them my motivation in owning an electric car, and they were also a bit astonished to know I am commuting such a distance to work in my EV.
One of the other people there was a Santa Monica city representative and we also got to chat, as I explained to him I religiously stick to the 3 hrs limit on the charging time when he noted my car is seen often around.
I an say the same of the guy in the Fiat 500 that got also shown.
As long as we are social and kind to each other I see no issues.
Today for example I unplugged myself after the 3 hrs limit, even if I noticed the person I left a note to plug me in after them only did so maybe 1/2 hr earlier.
I had only 29 miles of range but I unplugged myself and plugged a blue Nissan Leaf that was waiting.
Lucky for me I went to the other bank of chargers and found both unused! So I got to plug myself in for another 3 hrs at the other end of the park to reach enough range to go home.
