Ah yeah, we're getting crossed up. I haven't seen an L2 charger that cheap and I was also including labor for installation.

You're right - I did phrase the measurement an odd way - that's because I've mostly described it to folks who are just familiar with ICEs. It's like 8-10 hours for an 18 kwh size battery. As you know, distance out of that is super dependent on speed/terrain. If I drive a combination of my most common scenarios, it provides roughly the equivalent of a gallon and a half of gas.
