    With NACS becoming more and more universal, and soon to be a true standard, will we also see fast charging of other devices like e-bikes and lawn tools using the standard?

      Feels too bulky and complicated for an e-bike or handheld lawn tools, riding lawn mower though… maybe?

      If the AC to DC conversion is done inside the device then a kettle plug seems like enough to effectively max out a standard outlet. If it’s being done outside of the device I guess it depends on the wattage they can pull, USB-C could do 240W… idk if there is another standard that can carry ~1KW of DC power.
