    A lot of people who haven’t tried it will tell you it’s not viable.

    There will be some who say it’s easy, find out how they find it so easy.

    My thoughts are different.  You need to choose the car carefully, some manufacturers have discounts with certain providers which are useless if there’s none of their chargers close by.  Electroverse can be useful if you’ve the right chargers close by.  Essentially, you need to find what chargers you can regularly use.  Rather than having to charge from empty to full, charge from a quarter to no more than three-quarters.  If you’re going somewhere further away charge to full but keep enough in the battery for an urgent trip to the hospital at minimum and then charge for whatever time you’re comfortable with.

    Pricing can vary ridiculously.  From 30 odd pence per kWh up to 90p or more and that will build up if you’ve a 88kWh battery.

    I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
