Sure, if you want it to take a week to fully charge.

120vac at max 15 or 20 amps is going to take forever to charge. That’s why most car chargers are 230vac and 60amps.

He addresses that. Most drivers will not be charging from empty, and overnight charging will be able to keep up. That’s with an estimated 40m/day or less.

Your individual usage could be higher.
