nerys said:I disagree. It's pedantic when people complain about which letters of kWh are capitalized. But the difference between kilowatts and kilowatt hours is fundamental to conversations about electric vehicles.

So the author's assumption that everyone understood what he meant is not accurate.
The author should consider to try to understand the topic instead of name calling someone who uses units of measurements correctly.nerys said:He just likes being an ass.

EVSE vs. charger is another conversation altogether, and I'm all for precise use of language. But EVSE is the silliest, most awkward-sounding acronym ever created! Well, maybe the acronym isn't that bad, but insisting that it be used in place of the plug one uses to charge an EV, rather than 'charger' is pedantic at best. Almost anywhere EVSE is used -- if and when expanded into its full four words (and/or spoken) -- would make those sentences sound absurd, pretentious and/or ungrammatical.
{ it's its / there their / even no know now and others } I can overlook because people type fast and the frequency of those words in writing is fairly close. I agree that many do not know or appreciate the difference(s) between 'affect' vs. 'effect' though, and there's simply no good excuse for mixing up the "to"s!
My 2¢ and humble, unsolicited, opinion.
