EV ownership is impractical for a vast majority of Americans. We want to change that.
Two things stand between millions of people and a practical electric car: a plug at home that they can actually use, and a public charging network that doesn't suck.
The Two Barriers
Home Charging
35% of US households rent. Only about 5% of apartment buildings have any EV charging at all.
The median American drives 37 miles per day. A standard wall outlet would cover that. The problem isn't the physics. It's access to the plug.
Why home charging mattersPublic Charging
When you do need to charge away from home, you need several apps, multiple accounts, and a tolerance for broken stations. The EU mandates Plug & Charge and 99% uptime reporting. The US doesn't yet.
A broken charger is worse than no charger. It wastes your time, kills your confidence, and makes you question the whole transition.
Why public charging mattersWhy This Matters
We believe EV ownership should be practical for anyone who drives — not just homeowners with driveways. The technology is ready. The policy isn't. The deployment isn't. And the people designing the infrastructure aren't the people who need it most.
What we're building
We're not a car review site. We're not an EV advocacy organization. We're a group of people who happen to drive electric and believe the system should work better than it does. We're documenting what's broken, what's working, and what needs to change — and we're building tools to make it easier.
Are you a renter trying to charge?
We're actively researching what works and what doesn't. If you live in an apartment or rent, tell us about your situation. It directly shapes what we build and write.
For property managers and charging operators
We're talking to people building the next generation of charging infrastructure. If you're deploying chargers in multifamily buildings or working on Plug & Charge integration, we'd love to hear what you're seeing.
