UPDATE: With the onset of many Americans coming to a realization that the #EV movement/#rEVolution is REAL, We have BREAKING NEWS:It's True.
Many different types of Drivers are learning the advantages of Electric Vehicles.
Tesla Motors and Nissan have unveiled Dynamic additions to their charging networks:
>>Tesla is to offer free #OffGrid type solar charging stations free to use for Tesla Owners. Also recently unveiled Battery Swap Stations...
>>Nissan recently announced plans for 100 Quick Charging/DCFC Stations at Nissan Dealerships.
There is a real surge in ownership of EV's.
I am one of them (Proud owner of Nissan LEAF SL). My #EV has the Quick Charger port built in next to the 6.6 kWh Charging port.
We Madison LEAF owners are very excited to hear about the addition of #DCFC Chargers in our area (Madison, Milwaukee). http://www.facebook.com/groups/MadisonLeafers/
We came across this article from ETECH Labs on LinkedIn and thought it explains the DCFC Charging Upgrades.

- Nissan To Add Electric Vehicle Quick Charging At More Than 100 U.S. LEAF-Certified Dealerships - engadget
Quick charge units can recharge Nissan LEAF to 80 percent in about 30 minutes.
So far, the active chargers in the program have been popular. Since the pilot began, about 5,600 charging sessions have taken place, with each location averaging about 4.5 sessions per day. That figure has been steadily on the rise as awareness has increased. Over the period of June 21-July 1, the number of charging sessions increased about 12.5 percent compared to the previous two-week period.
Installation of new chargers will begin in east coast markets, starting this summer. By April 1, 2014, Nissan expects to have quick chargers installed and operational at 100 additional dealerships.
Nissan's charging partner AeroVironment will supply the quick chargers and will provide installation services for nearly all of the new quick charging units.

Nissan Announces Huge Price Reduction for 2013 Leaf
Last week, Nissan issued a press release announcing the improvements it had in store for its 2013 Leaf EV. Among those improvements were an additional, less expensive trim level, an extended range, and a better charging time. Though the Japanese company did not include pricing details simultaneously, many inferred that a price reduction would be in order because the Leaf and its battery are now being manufactured stateside in Smyrna, Tennessee.
Today, at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Nissan announced pricing for the 2013 Leaf. In doing so, they confirmed that there would indeed be a price reduction for the next model year. The Japanese automaker is also claiming that the price reduction will make the 2013 Leaf the least expensive five-seater EV available to North American consumers.
According to yet another extremely long press release from Nissan, the 2013 Leaf will be available beginning at an MSRP of $6,400 less than the starting MSRP of the 2012 Leaf. Further, all three trim levels of the 2013 Leaf will have MSRPs lower than the cheapest 2012 Leaf. The 2012 Leaf currently has a starting price of $35,200 before any applicable federal or state tax credits, whereas the highest trim level of the 2013 Leaf—the SL—will have an MSRP of $34,840. The mid-level trim—the SV—will be priced at $31,820, while the base trim—the S—will start at $28,800.
After the $7,500 federal tax credit Leaf owners qualify for, the price of the 2013 Leaf EV will fall to $21,300. Further, if you qualify for California’s state tax credit of $2,500—you’re looking at only $18,800 for a 2013 Leaf S. Keep in mind, however, a destination fee of $850 dollars is not included in any of the above prices, nor are any tax, title, and license fees. You can read the press release in its entirety here.

If One Storm Can Turn D.C. Dark For Several Days, What Would A Massive EMP Burst Do?
The “super derecho” storm that pounded the Washington D.C. area on Friday night with hurricane-force winds is being called unprecedented. But the truth is that there are other events that could happen that would be far more damaging to our power grid. For example, a substantial EMP burst over a major U.S. city would fry virtually all of the electronics in the city and take the power grid in the area down indefinitely. A gigantic EMP burst over the entire country (caused by a massive solar storm or a very large nuclear explosion high in the atmosphere) could theoretically take down the entire national power grid.- See more at: http://madtownpreppers.blogspot.com/2012/07/if-one-storm-can-turn-dc-dark-for.html#sthash.gP4MSTAQ.dpuf
