Changing car to lower power - frustrating?

FYI though, for future reference, charging cables of 20M are readily available.

What I mean is the charger doesn't have to be near the car, you just need a long enough cable with plug to the car.

Those must cost a lot and weigh a fair bit too?

Yup, but in theory you could leave it set up. It might just be easier to get an outdoor socket properly wired to the end of the garden, it'll cost a bit more but will be safer, neater and without any kind of length restriction.

If you're getting a new install, you usually get a certain length free (usually 5M, I think) then every M after that is charged extra.
So you're not buying the whole 20M per se.
Weight isn't an issue, most people go for a tethered cable permanently wired to the charger and then just leave the wire dangling or whatever (with a holster for the plug).
It's not like you'd be permanently humping it around like a fireman hose.
