actionjackson posted:true though that isn't really the chronic problem that cutting EV cables seems to be. maybe because the latter tend to be not tied to gas stations, where you have other people pumping gas as well as customers going in and out of the store. some gas stations close at night. there's not much other than a few specialized bolts and a pump keeping someone out of the gas in the tanks, why isn't gasoline theft from underground tanks more common? apparently gas stations keep about 20k gallons on hand, that has to be a bigger score than any scrap metal. Platystemon posted:Gasoline is for its bulk one of the worst commodities you could possibly steal. I can't think of a lot of commodities more fungible than gasoline. Move it into a legitimate supply chain for a slight discount, how would anyone ever know? AreWeDrunkYet has issued a correction as of 05:22 on Jan 23, 2024 |

I doubt they're cutting them for scrap. Hardly seems like there's enough copper there. But, idk. I serviced agricultural wells (and by service I mean I just refilled the oil so they didn't burn up) for a few years for a water storage district. The pumps have big copper coils that thieves sometimes try to steal. The pumps are only protected by a round cage and they're easy to break into, plus they're often out in the middle of nowhere, but the coils must be a bitch to get out. While I was working there, word came out that some poor sap in another district found one of these thieves fried to a crisp while trying to steal one of the coils that still had power running to it.

But, idk. at current scrap copper prices, if that's one of the level 2 public chargers, it's a bit more than $20 in scrap copper, and if it's one of the level 3 public chargers, a bit more than $30, so not a lot but if they hit up a handful of them and it doesn't take very long to do, maybe it is for scrap

Pretty sure one could get reasonably high for $20-30.

quite a few gas stations are 24 hour and dc fast chargers in them would be fine for them. I have noticed truck stops having them in the regular car side now, idk why regular ones don't have them in america, its common in europe

Most of the chargers around here are at Sheetz stations, afaik Tesla pays Sheetz to maintain them, and I've never seen an EV cord cut.

if they're cutting right at the top, it's about 7 and 3/4ths pounds of copper for a level 2 charger, and about 11 and 2/3 pounds for a level 3 charger. and copper goes for about $2.60/pound sold for scrap

Had to drop my partner off at work this morning, and I was nearly hit at an uncontrolled intersection by a driver who was staring down at their phone and never even bothered to slow down. It was pouring rain and I had to slam on my brakes. This loving country and the absolute morons who live in it e: this was also a block away from a middle school lol

HashtagGirlboss posted:Is 30mph even possible on a bike, absent serious sustained downhill or something The best pros can keep up that speed for an hour. Many more can do it in a sprint. In addition to downhill cheating, anyone can do it with enough of a tailwind, or with the assistance of a motor.

One of the hardest parts of riding a bike is actually accepting that you do not have to be going as fast as possible at all times.
