charging
A charging station, also known as a charge point or electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), is a piece of equipment that supplies electrical power for charging plug-in electric vehicles (including electric cars, electric trucks, electric buses, neighborhood electric vehicles, and plug-in hybrids).
There are two main types: AC charging stations and DC charging stations. Batteries can only be charged with direct current (DC) electric power, while most electricity is delivered from the power grid as alternating current (AC). For this reason, most electric vehicles have a built-in AC-to-DC converter, commonly known as the "onboard charger". At an AC charging station, AC power from the grid is supplied to this onboard charger, which produces DC power to charge the battery. DC chargers facilitate higher power charging (which requires much larger AC-to-DC converters) by building the converter into the charging station instead of the vehicle to avoid size and weight restrictions. The station then supplies DC power to the vehicle directly, bypassing the onboard converter. Most fully electric car models can accept both AC and DC power.
Charging stations provide connectors that conform to a variety of international standards. DC charging stations are commonly equipped with multiple connectors to be able to charge a wide variety of vehicles that utilize competing standards.
Public charging stations are typically found street-side or at retail shopping centers, government facilities, and other parking areas. Private charging stations are typically found at residences, workplaces, and hotels.
Hi, I have a Bear Creek Arsenal 7.5" 223 wyld stainless heavy barrel side charing upper for sale. It also has a BCM extractor upgrade and spring. Has about 100 rounds through it and has ran great. Thanks!
Optics not included
Asking $200
Selling my factory assembled 10.5” Bear Creek Arsenal 300 Blackout side charging upper with Sons of Liberty Keymo mount (not factory, I added it.) It has maybe 80 rounds through it. Great upper and no issues, asking $200 cash, will ship if buyer pays shipping.
I do not own an electric vehicle and don't plan to for at least 5-10 years (ie., I'll let other people play Factory Test Pilot for me), but this article made me laugh as I thought of potential business names for a site/station outside of a major city.
