For many carts, the charger is an external unit and would need to be carried in the cart. Also, I believe most (all?) of the chargers are 115v 15amp devices and take a considerable amount of time to charge the batteries - hours. If we consistently saw stranded electric carts all over The Villages I guess you could make the case for charging stations but that doesn't appear to be the case. Charging stations will take up space and provide questionable value, in my opinion.

That fact jack, it they want charging station they can bring they're own portable generator
