I apologize in advance if this question has been asked and answered in other threads. I searched the database and read the threads I could find, but I am still not sure about the answer.
I live in Chicagoland and would like to be able to preheat before starting my 50 mile RT commute. I am not sure at this point whether I will be installing L2 charging at my garage. This will depend on the cost to upgrade my garage to 240V. I am concerned that my 30-year-old 25 feet underground conduit may not be in good enough shape to pull the additional wires and a digging job through vegetation and concrete might cost a small fortune. I assume my commute is right at the edge of what is feasible with L1 charging.
