Nearly all charging stations are in garages, it is a sophisticated charger that interfaces with automotive lithium cells, and your RV is not compliant with the charging profile. It's not just a matter of changing the cord. BTW, these chargers actually want some money to hook up, go figure.2012Coleman wrote:
I Googled Manhattan hostel and found some very interesting links including one for the Harlem YMCA The OP can research the rates himself, but these are typically way less expensive than an apartment and according to info at the link I provided, you get to use the Y's facilities including pool and computer room.
No way in HE double toothpicks would I even consider living in an RV in the north during the winter.
It's funnny how these types of questions pop up at this time of year - last year, it was about a guy wanting to convert a box truck into some kind of living quarters so he could park at the university parking lot - un-noticed.
I can't see any outcome other than being found imitating a popsicle. Good luck OP - if your still around reading these replies.
still reading! thanks for the suggestions and concerns. The idea of using the e-car charging stations to charge the rv is really interesting. could you guys elaborate a little more on how that would work? It seems like I need to purchase and install a cable that is normally used for electric cars/hybrids.
Do you now own an RV or is this all speculation on how to save some money?
