Are you paying for gas and diesel tanks at my house? Why the heck am I subsidizing your electric car charging.Sounds like a plus, not a minus.

The range I frequent recently disabled the outdoor 110 because some members were charging their cars while shooting. I mean, WTF, that to me is akin to siphoning gas out of my car.Recently heard about a squabble at a campground, one camper was hooked up to the 50a charging his EV, other campers took exception to that because they believe camp rates will rise to cover increased electric usage to charge vehicles.
Another issue is folks visiting and wanting to plug in while they visit your home. I would not ask you for gas from your cans to get home why is it ok to ask for my electricity?
Where does this entitlement attitude come from that one can just plug into any outdoor outlet to charge their EV? Saw a car in an office parking lot plugged into the outlet for Christmas lights in the landscaping, don’t know if they had permission…The range I frequent recently disabled the outdoor 110 because some members were charging their cars while shooting.

Some places (like my employer) have public charging stations. The plant is a little off the beaten path so we don’t get a lot of public chargers—but I hear we have gotten them. I’m guessing people get accustomed to being able to opportunity charge at places like my plant and other public places it creates the expectation that they can do it anywhere.Where does this entitlement attitude come from that one can just plug into any outdoor outlet to charge their EV?

You aren't. Neither is that guy subsidizing that electricity. Those people are simply paying a flat rate for off peak power. That doesn't mean anyone else is paying for part of the rate. Unless he can show that FPL is actually losing money on supplying that power of course. I doubt seriously they are doing that.Are you paying for gas and diesel tanks at my house?

Reuters pointed out that the Dutch coastguard said the fire's origin is unknown, but Dutch broadcaster RTL said emergency responders were heard saying, "The fire started in the battery of an electric car."
The fire broke out late Tuesday night on board the vessel. Coastguard officials said the fire "could still burn for days." The latest known position of the ship was off the northern Dutch coast on Wednesday.

Before I bought my (ICE) Stinger, I strongly considered the Kia EV6. My Stinger is fast, but not as fast as that dual motor EV6 was! In any case, I'd never even consider bumming free electricity from friends nor family unless there was some sort of quid pro quo of me buying the beer or something.How many people have asked for your electricity?
Several at my office, and places I go to recreationally. Not at my home because I don’t have anyone I invite to my home that own one and or would ask…How many people have asked for your electricity?

My post WAS about people’s behavior. The behavior of smug entitled EV owners is a primary sub-topic in this thread…Then do you know how to say no? A good “go **** yourself” should work well in this situation.
But I think it’s on the absurd spectrum to blame the EV’s for the people’s behavior. It’s also a perception that electricity is cheap to the point of being free.
Anyway if you want to be softer on them tell them you’ll only charge them $.50 per KWH if they really need to charge. Or maybe they can work it off. You let them charge, and they mow your lawn. Wash your car.
