It’s coming soon. Our car’s battery capacity is comparable to the house batteries, so during extended rainy power outages, I’d love to be able to fast charge the car, drive it home, and top off the house battery. (Adding 50% per trip.)

The only other alternative is installing and maintaining a propane generator, but that’s more time then a few round trips into town per year (especially since the grocery store has a fast charger, and we invariably need to purchase food during these events).

Also, they ended up rationing propane this year, since the delivery progress with the big trucks was hampered by road conditions, and demand was unprecedented.
