One thing about EV charging stations, you can't steal electricity. Or can you? Someone will find a way I'm sure. Thieves steal 5,000 gallons of diesel from Dallas gas station, video shows https://www.fox4news.com/news/thieves-steal-diesel-dallas-gas-station

Cords cut at Tesla charging station in Cincinnati, second time in a week Those responsible supposedly stole the cables for the copper inside. CINCINNATI (WXIX) - The Tesla Supercharger station near the Oakley Meijer was vandalized Friday for the second time this week. Cords on the charging...

Ok. My point is that because there is not nearly enough EV charging stations and that it is a more of a concern than what it normally would be. I also think there are people that for some odd/strange reason despise EV's and actually enjoy the destruction of EV charging stations.

On the hook, really? Rarely. I'll say it one more time for reading impaired. Copper theft is not their only criminal/theft activity. Yes it is. Not all criminals get caught, by the way. Best and brightest? No. Like everything else there is a hierarchy among criminals. If you ever come...

I'm pretty sure copper theft is not their only criminal activity. It can be, sure. But not always. It's quick and easy. Not sure where you this "bottom of the barrel crime" from. You are as naive as they come. And so is HaulingAss. Criminals can spot you a mile away and make for easy...

This will add extra cost which will trickle down to the consumer/user of EV chargers. It's getting more and more expensive to own EV's.

Nice try GOOFBALL! NO POLITICS!

Sure. But I was referring to EV chargers that are supposedly already available and was wondering what anti-theft they are using.

It wouldn't be such a big deal if EV charging stations were as ubiquitous as gasoline/diesel fuel stations. And that's years away yet.

EV charging cables and catalytic converters......snip, snip and saw, saw. Anti-Theft Chargers Available, says Arias Arias says the problem might have been prevented had the if the city had installed a different type of EV charger. “They weren’t the anti-theft type, which are available,” Arias...

I think scrap copper is going for around $4.00/pound.

Problem is most charging stations are not in rural areas. And even if some are there are still people/businesses around the charging stations. Don't fire a gun unless your life is in danger in these circumstances.

Would have worked maybe a few years ago but not now. You would most likely be charged. Not worth it. Criminals have the upper hand and they know it.

True. But copper thieves always seem to find a way to sell their ill-gotten goods.

Would be a punch in gut to roll up to a charging station and close to empty on your battery only to find all the cables gone.
