    EV charging stations should start putting up gas station style boards showing the current price per kWh. Not that a kWh of electrons gets you as far as a gallon of gas, but a substantial chunk of the population will see the smaller number and start thinking about switching.

      The conversion for eMPG (which yes, is possibly the most cursed of units) is ~33 kwh equals a gallon. My PNW home electricity prices are pretty low, but that puts an eGallon at ~$2.97.

      If anything I think that number is misleadingly high, but that’s part of why it’s possibly the most cursed unit.
