Current EV batteries should last over 500,000 miles. Remember, though that some degradation is normal, but if they degrade more than 20% there's a problem.

That's way better than i would have expected. thanks

With brownouts, blackouts and some asked to cut back on usage how is the grid going to handle more electric cars?

The last and current month have the electric grid maxed out and providers begging folks to cut back. We are not anywhere close to being ready for EVs as the norm.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

Charge at night - that's what I do. This is using base power generation for my charging and not the peak power generators that are insufficient for the middle of the day.

You must live in the North? here in the South it is hot at night, hence A/C is going. I grew up in Phoenix, it don't ever get cool there.
What about winters in the North?, How does the frigid weather effect batteries?
You charge at night but if say a great number of people go electric then what? Charge using the initial in your last name?, every other day?
We ain't ready and there's nothing in the pipeline to get us ready.

I would try to drill down and get to the root of the problem but I'm afraid that's out of the question also.

I live in Denver. Summer heat isn't as bad as Arizona, but it stays hot at night. I haven't heard of rolling blackouts at night in Phoenix - the baseline power is sufficient. As for winter driving, expect 20% range loss between 0 and 32F and 30% below 0F. This is why range on an EV is important.

With 3 KW available per home, it's a bit unwieldy. Plus the cost of electricity is 60 cents/KWh, not really that affordable. If you don't own a garage (typical here) it's even worse because
A) you can't charge your car at all
B) batteries really, really, REALLY don't like continuous thermal stress.

At 2.1 € / litre I have a very severe case of coprolalia each time I have to refuel. Even LPG reached 0.80€/liter.

Sewer was also NOT the answer to a recent Wordle that I failed to solve in 6 tries -- neither was Seder.

~ All in My Fingertips, Virtual © 2022
I know that I have all of the world's knowledge at my fingertips.
I do not even need to have token anchors at hand for the boat of virtual mind— ideas, hunches, definitions, references, life-preservers, dictionaries or thesauruses.
I just imagine something in the most abstract way possible— perhaps, like the way a child finger-paints— and, while he mushes one spreading fringe of color into another, sees shapes, memories, faces, ebb and flow— which are as real to a mind still on-the-verge-of-divorce-from-wonder— as anything else is— real.
All in my fingertips, virtual.
I am aware I once had a Name, and I know that all I have to do to recall that Name is to simply imagine the colors in its ghost in my fingers. I know that Name had a History associated with it, and that a biological entity once slept, waked, dreamed, moved about, acting as if that Name was a unique object, as if the History connected to the Name possessed some degree of reality, and that the History was as firmly welded to the Name as Time is (or was) wed to that chunk-of-biology's heartbeat, or breathing.
That the History follows-like-a-shadow one-with-the-Name was actually a fiction with no real consistency, constructed haphazardly every time it was remembered by an architect of survival instincts, a contractor who was on drugs most of the time, and a construction crew of the half-blind and half-crazed—
That no longer concerns me.
I could read (should I say re-construct ?) any version of that History I wanted to— if I wanted— to.
But, why would I want to ? Why interrupt the infinite flow of all Names, and all Histories, to piddle around with such puny dramaturgy ?
Why return to the barren-desert-of-Me when I can be in a mountain-top cave creating the words that will give birth to a religion in whose name millions will be slaughtered and enslaved ?
Why hang-out in a numbing simplicity when I can directly experience every subtlety of the universe; why want a kiss when I can experience not only all kisses but every circumstance that surrounded each kiss in a veil of sensual mystery ?
I heard what you just thought ! Yes, I am imagining you as my fingertips draw you as another set of fingers painting my fingers painting your fingers: so I do know everything about you moment-to-moment— including the fact you and I exist only in so far as we are drawing each other.
You thought: "What about other people: about their real lives; their suffering; their joys; what about your connection to other people ?"
Now: look what you just made me do !
Look how all the colors have run together now, and turned into a kind of dark army-khaki-green sludge the color of a bacterial mat floating in a stagnant lightless swamp.
The shapes, the faces, the memories, the dreams, the subtle gradients of iridescent color, the rainbows, the unbearably-radiant-white, the black-as-bottomless-deep—
All: nothing.
My fingers— stiff— is this the rictus of the real, the price paid after virtual's magic does its disappearing act ?
You are no longer here.
I am here in singular moments that have no echoes: wondering at how infinite a uniqueness the word "alone"— is.
