That's what Margaret did when we first got the Zoe. We didn't have an EVSE yet because we had to have the prehistoric electrical panel replaced and the service upgraded first. The granny cord that came with the car worked, but it was sloooooooooooooooow. Normally she'd walk or bike the 2km to the grocery, but when the car got below 40% she drove there and charged for free while she bought groceries. With a 22kW AC charge on a 52kWh battery, all she had to do was spend 45m to an hour shopping and the car would be at 80% or better. I think she could probably spend that much time just picking through the short-date cut-price section. :-) David Roden, EVDL moderator & general lackey To reach me, don't reply to this message; I won't get it.
