Like, when my own municipality gets a $15k quote for a single L2 EV charger I question it. A regular 120V outlet with a waterproof lockbox to hold an L1 charger should be much cheaper, especially if we pull it off our street light circuits (which have capacity after LED upgrades).
Even if we absolutely must have L2 because we're charging parking enforcement/police vehicles that are driving 20 hours/day we should be slotting 4-6 EVs to charge on that 1 plug, instead of leaving it idle for 20 hours/day. If we don't we make EVs pricier than they truly are and slow adoption.
