This week’s podcast involves a debate over EV charging connectors. Are we nerds or what? But with Tesla’s announcement of its North American Charging Standard (NACS) connector, there are real questions that need genuine answers. We also chat about 12v batteries, electric “gas” station power requirements, a 258 mph EV speed record, and more!
