You know what? I am not super into the EV thing but I feel like it should be legal for charging stations to use "hostile infrastructure" that will probably KILL you if you cut the cables. The criminals need to be locked up or just dead. You know this is not the only crime they do and they are a shit-stain on society.

If they cut that cable but a pulse just happens to cook the POS then I don't feel bad about that one bit.

From the post:

>A new threat is posing further obstacles to electric vehicle ownership for Americans. Thieves are targeting charging stations and stealing the cables. This can mean the loss of $1,000-plus cables - but there is an even bigger knock-on effect. Crooks cutting wires can disable entire stations - forcing owners to search desperately for another working charger that might be miles away. So-called 'range anxiety', slow charging and a lack of public stations have long put Americans off switching to EVs - despite tax credits from President Biden. And now broken down chargers are exacerbating the problem - giving skeptical buyers one more reason to stick with gas cars for now.

If only there was a way to store energy and use as needed, like in some kind of tank.

That would be glorious.

Yes, replenishing it could take as little as 5 mins. Your vehicle could maybe drive 400 or more miles. The liquid devices could all use cheap materials so changing consumer habits wouldn't matter.
