Problem with that is it would have to be tankered to the the filling stations, so same problem as with petrol/diesel and the associated dangers only much more so. Electricity doesn't require electric tankers!

There might be limited use for perhaps local transport, eg buses where a private local depot holds the fuel, but safely.

It's just the same as the Pentax version other than the label as far as I could tell. As a fish eye it obviously has barrel distortion or it wouldn't be a fish-eye! It's possible to correct the effect in PP if that isn't what you're after. I was't disappointed with it but it's not fully compatible with the K-1 unsurprisingly. Fine for APS-C.

Gwyn,
The two I mentioned have world wide coverage. Google came a bit late to the party, for ages they didn't show them at all, so EVers don't tend to use Google to see if they're available, what they cost to use, whether they're working,. On Google users can't input whether they've had a successful or unsuccessful experience as they can with the dedicated sites. Yes Google may show the location but not a lot more.
Level 2 is a charger that can output between 3 and 7 kW (sometimes 11kW for some cars such as the Zoe where 3 phase is available). These are the posts one often see in shopping centres and supermarkets.
Level 1 is a slower charger or socket that allows a home 'granny' charger to be plugged in, often just a household socket on a post.
Level 3 is a rapid charger, 22kW plus; usually 50kW depending on the power supply at the location, sometimes even more.
Making the chargers work can be a bit of a faff. While some use RFID cards or even cashless bank cards, others require the use of a phone app so it quite conceivable to have to have a number of these apps on your phone, if indeed the phone is able to run them. They can be somewhat flaky. Mind some you just plug straight in and charge as you would at home.

Not really though they have have started including some. Zap-Map and Plugshare are dedicated sites for chargers and show their status, cost etc. (Google doesn't do that.) Then the supply companies have dedicated sites to show their own ones.
I do most of my charging off solar panels, and then get feed-in tariff paid to me for generating the electricity to do that! My power requirement including charging the car ends up with a net profit each year. Also many of the charging posts you see doted around car parks are free to use, including some of the 50kW rapid chargers.
Leaves plenty of funds to feed LBA.
That journey from the east coast to Lancashire and down to London and back I mentioned didn't cost a penny.

I got one for free with a GX20.

That's pretty exceptional. Most people write off EVs as they think they'll have to drive from John O'Groats to Lands End non stop in a day to visit a sick relative. The reality is they never have to do that.
Don't fossil fuel cars need refuelling nowadays? What with these charge themselves hybrids we see advertised (don't they even need petrol or diesel then, electricity coming from thunder clouds or something?)
Most journeys people undertake are under five miles, not even long enough to warm the engine and clear the condensation from the exhaust system notwithstanding clogging up a diesel engine's filter!
Then we haven't considered the pollution emitted by a fossil car and its effect on our lungs.
I know old habits die hard!
If 300 mile journeys are a necessity, the Tesla Model 3 will cope with that non stop and many current EVs will exceed 200 miles; more than enough for most of us, so of course 400 miles with just a single stop.

Great, I'm actually on my fourth Leaf right now, I was an early adopter. Current one (! sic) will do up to about 240 miles on a charge. My first did around 60 miles, but that didn't stop me driving it from the Yorkshire coast over to Lancashre and then down to London and back. Just needed to stop and charge it more often. At first chargers were few and far between, there's many more now. Just stop for a coffee or lunch while the car's on charge and you''re good to go after 15-60 minutes.
As for south Wales to the lales. The distance from Cardiff to Carlisle is 302 mile so many of the current cars would do that with one top up charge. I take it you don't drive those distances non stop? You have to consider that there are chargers now which can output up to 350 kW, and some of todays cars can charge up to 100kW. 50 is the norm for rapid charging. And you can plug in overnight or from solar to et reduced rate electricity or for free or even get paid to charge it. You don't know what you're missing.

What sort of mileages are having to do? Cheaper to run, cheaper to service, cheaper to tax, less depreciation, quieter so why miss out?

The result has been posted.

Only a day left to enter!
