Also, maybe we need to tone it down with Level 2 chargers. I was provided a level 1 with my Ioniq 5 and that's all I use at home.

Cause that requires two very large batteries that aren't cheap (car, house) and we already have a big battery sitting there already.
You're already making do with level 1 which kind of illustrates the point, somebody with a level 2, how often do they *really* need a fully charged battery ready to go at 100% charge? Even my PHEV with not a massive battery has been sitting in the garage all week at 100% cause I've been biking all week. Why not use that in the evening and top up it back up off the solar panels during the day?
