At the ecotricity stations I usually stay in/near car, grab a coffee overlooking charger or otherwise am only a few minutes away. I do sometimes top up > 80% though if it's necessary and/or no-one is waiting. With a denser population of RCs this is less of an issue, though a handy 7kW/3kW backup would help for an extra topup if say wanting to eat.

The only place I've left my car > charge cycle was at the local ikea. It was *meant* to be 30 minutes but have you ever tried getting in/out that quickly... especially when there's a queue at the checkouts.... (it was more like 60.. no-one waiting but I felt guilty) - oh and there was a space adjacent plus the charge had finished so cable could be removed

Posted elsewhere, but this is really a good, low-tech solution to some issue I believe...

wonder if we could get ecotricity to sponsor some of these

 

[Paul]

Their creative commons license says no commercial and, more restrictively, no derivatives. Not sure how they can put that on a derivative of a standard parking disk design though?

That aside, I've put the feelers out on getting this done in the UK, will report back as soon as aI hear anything.

you can put what you like, it has to stand up in court to meaningful

If someone would like to get permission to use the design and modify as required then ZCW will sponsor the first 100. This overcomes the commercial challenge at least

As said above, I've put some feelers out, have a feeling we're looking at LARGE minimum order volumes for custom work like this.

It would be fairly simple to identify a source for the standard parking wheels and then have a decal made up to fit over it, an option perhaps?
