I called it!

If the battery technology (standardization and price, obviously performance is already here) were here, I'd absolutely consider an electric re-power for my 318 Satellite.

Our son has had a tesla model 3 for about 2 years and has (on my request) kept track of his electric bills, including a pre-tesla average.

He reports (with the optional 30A/240V charger) it costs less than $25 per month to operate.

That is real world savings including electric generating consumption.

The battery life cycle, disposal, and cost issue however, is also real.

Right. Were the tech here to allow an electric car to run ALL NIGHT IN THE DARK with all accessories on and running, then you're tech is there 100%. Sooner or later that will happen, but it's not here yet. Wasn't there somebody that invented some kinda spray on paint that was basically a solar panel when it cured? Seems I remember reading about that somewhere.
