anybody tried charging the nissan leaf from a small generator?...strikes me
it would be a good idea to carry one and be able to charge up if you run out
of juice....like carrying a gallon of petrol in the boot......


What's the battery capacity? 20 kWh? So 4% of capacity after an hour
from a typical small genny? Easier to carry a big diesel battery.


Or, if only they could tow ... you could have a friction driven
generator in a trailer charging the battery as you drive! ;-)

Or a trailed generator big enough to drive the car for ever with a huge
fuel tank behind the generator.
