Eventually, a car MFR will wake up to the fact that he can put the entire EVSE on the car and have a simple #14 pull-out extension cord (lieka vacuum cleaner) that can plug into ANY standard 120v 15 am outlet.
Then we will truly meet the valuie promise of the EV... thatis, charge anywhere and everywhere from the 200,000,000 standard oiutlets in every hhome in America... For those in apartments.. it is a bit more complicated... But why not make it simple for the 200,000,000 of us that have an outlet? The j1772 is needed only for L2 where there is not a standard, ubiquitous GFCI protected outleteverywhere. But where there is a standard 120v outlet, why don't we make a commuter EV with that standard pull-out plug option.

Only the US situation is that the cord is attached to the station. Apparently that is not always beneficial.

This way no cord is left at the charge station and every car can lock the cord to the car. When a car is done charging another vehicle can plug in and leave the first car's cord on the ground with the protective cap on. David D.
