Thanks again for the help and suggestions. I think I have charge time estimates figured out. The 21 hour estimate for a 110 volt charger was throwing me off. 1 watt = 1 volt at 1 amp per second (= 1 joule). So, a 30 kW battery / 21 hours = 1.429 kWh charging rate (=1429 Wh). 1429 / 110 volts =...

Thanks. So, if the 220v outlet is charging the car and one (or both) of the baseboards are on, what happens? It trips the breaker? Or worse? Sorry I don't know much about electricity. The existing outlet has "12AWG/2 Triangle Wire and Cable UL Type NM-B with ground 600 volts" supplying it. I'm...
