From a standard wall outlet (120VAC)...
1 kWh gets an e-scooter 20 miles (from 6 hours of charging)
1 kWh gets a Telsa about 3 miles (from 1 hour of charging)
Charging a Tesla requires 750 watts of overhead to run the cooling circuits and pumps, plus initial losses.
120VAC @ 12A = 1440 watts (Leaves about 690 watts going into the batteries.). 2kWh to put in 1kWh. 48% efficiency.
240VAC @ 32A = 7680 watts (Leaves 6930 watts going into the batteries. 90% efficiency.
