    For the 5%. The point is, you can charge very slowly and even, say, one overnight charge a week will be enough for a week’s driving for many and you’ll have more than 7 opportunities to get it. There’s massive leeway in many (but not obviously all) cases. I know I could slow charge at every location I might park for a longer time in my current daily life.
