Portable EV Charging Station - Without Solar

A discussion of what a portable EV charging station looks like, without the solar panels.

This video was inspired by another Youtube channel I watch called "Transport Evolved". The creator's wife Kate mentioned she would love to keep her old Leaf if she could find a replacement battery for it for $4k. But Nissan charges around 8,500 right now, so she sold her Leaf. This video looks at some alternative options she had, and how much more economical they may have been.

Pardon my dyslexia. At several points in this video I accidentally call the Bolt the Volt. The Volt is a plug-in hybrid and is not the car they wound up going with. They purchased the Chevy Bolt, which is a fully electric EV, and I believe their vehicle had a maximum real-world range of closer to 180 miles, not 130 as I also erroneously mention in the video.
