there is a lot of buzz around what is going to happen when you start seeing cars zooming down that highway that make no sound. That is going to be one quiet freeway!
let's think about it for a moment. The electric car is a vehicle that does not put gas into its gas tank. In fact, it does not have a gas tank. There is no tank of any sort anywhere on the car. What does it use to get that go? It uses pure electricity. How does it get this electricity? It gets it from you or from whomever, who puts it into the battery that is then placed into the car. So, in actuality, it is almost as if the battery is the tank and the electricity is the gas. And we all know that batteries are widely used in all of our houses and in our day to day lives, whereas no one wants a cup of gasoline sitting on their kitchen table.
what will we do without a world of gas stations? what other things will we find to annoy us? well, that is an easy fix. All of those gas stations you go to now will become charging stations. A charging station will be just like a gas station, except that you will fill up on electricity instead of gasoline. what is the rub? it takes a lot longer to fill up a battery with electricity than a tank with gasoline. but these things will soon be ameliorated by technological leaps in the electrical field. but what will do until then? we will wait for up to 4 hours to have our battery recharged. got a newspaper?
for now you can load your arsenal with things that will make it easier to find that charging station you will need, when you finally take the plunge and buy that electric vehicle that is. one of the directories available to you is station charging which will direct you to stations that are comfortable and you can see what others say about these locales. Good luck in your green ventures.
