$1.80 for 2 hours of charge sounds too high. Assuming you are using a 20 amp circuit, the most you can draw is 2.4 kW per hour. At approximately 13 cents per kWh, the cost shouldn't be higher than about 60 cents (and probably less since you won't draw 20 amps). That should get you about 25 miles.

Then to Laurel Manor Rec center, then to the Polo Grounds, then to Ace Hardware near the shopping center, then to Buffalo retirement, then to Churchill and then to Pimlico and 9 holes of golf and then to The Red Lobster.. Then we go home near Sumter Landing. OK, we are home and the power gauge is down to ALMOST HALF Gee, is that something to worry about? Guess we need to panic over that gauge down to a bit over half?
Now, on the reliability of those who seem to be so popular and stalled along the road? Well I would like to see the statistics and the superb monitoring ability and the documentation of someone who while driving along the MMP can see that the stalled cart is Electric. Is that because there are no poisonous odors nearby?
