Hi!
I suck at math and most things associated with math. That's why I perform and teach Improvisational Theater, Sketch Comedy, and puppetry for a living. This is also great because I don't have to add a lot of large numbers from paychecks.
My wife and I are going to make a major change and go all EV and add solar to our house. R1T for me and the MINI Cooper SE for her ( I get to play with the MINI too).
We have been shopping Solar with the hopes of charging our cars and running our house. The solar companies I have talked to say we will be more than doubling our usage when we get the EV's. One said we would be using up to 10,000 extra Kwh a year to charge the two cars. Is this true?
Is there a simple math equation that I can use to guesstimate how much we will use based on battery size, annual miles driven, etc.?
Also, they mentioned that I may need to go to a 200 amp electrical box.
Finally, what would I need to do to charge two cars at the same time? Is this possible?
I wish there was an easy tutorial about all of this. I think there will need to be something in the future to make this less confusing.
