Seriously considering taking the Phev plunge (may even be the first GX5hs orderer, based on my daughters' desire for warm bums) and have a question about home chargers.
Our house is on a hill, so our (off road) parking area is across a path from the house and at a higher (c4') level. So if you can imagine it goes "wall of house - 3' path - 4' wall up to where we park the car" - for context the wheels of the cars are about level with your eyes when you're standing on the path. We have a normal exterior plug socket on the wall of the house, but wondered whether we'd be able to put a run of cable beneath the path and fit the EV charger on the wall below the parking area where I could potentially reach down and get the charger without having to walk round - or possibly even out it on the "car" side of the wall (limited space as it's low on that side).
This would avoid having a cable dangling across the path, and might mean I could avoid walking round to get the charger and walk back to the car to plug it in (and reverse in the morning). First world problems, I know, but wondered how much flexibility there is in positioning these things.
Cheers
