Only if we all started at once. What will really happen is it will take
decades for everyone to take them up, and the substations will be
gradually upgraded. And since the electric companies are making a lot
more money, they can spend that on the transformers.

ROFL. The RECS will be 'persuading' the government to force electric car
owners to have a smart meter and either charge them all the missing fuel
duty and car tax via their leccy bill, or simply tell the meter to
instruct the car to stop charging when a brownout situation occurs.


Far too easy to get around.


In the same way you can get any ATM to give you anything you want cash wise
?


The ATM is not on my property. With electricity, we are talking about routing power, much MUCH simpler than adjusting the data in a bank's computer.
