No-one wants to park a long way from their house, wherever there happens to
be a free charging point, and then walk home from there and then walk back
when their car is fully charged.

This is all very silly when all they can get out of their string of
extension cables is 13A, and possibly only 720W if they were obeying what it
says as the capacity of wound extension reels (which they probably aren't).

Most of the bundled charge leads deliberately limit the current to
around 10A or so. Not sure what they do if they see loads of voltage
drop on the supply though.
