My charge from last night on a 30A charger (7.2 kW at 240V).
This is why I'm always harping on the "stop installing giant charger circuits" thing! Even this is a luxury - I only charge about weekly or if I make a long trip.
For USians, a 10 gauge run of wiring will deliver 5 kW sustained. You'll only ever think that's slow if you drive a TON and/or have a really big vehicle.
Especially if you're thinking of DIYing an install, 10 gauge is so much easier to deal with.
There are a lot of factors to consider if you are able to install a charger circuit, but you can open up many headaches if you insist on running a 50 amp circuit. Especially if you've got limited electric service.
5kW chargers deliver roughly 15 miles of range per hour. So in an 8 hour overnight charge you can expect 100 miles easily.
My personal opinion is that unless you have an extreme commute or a big truck of an EV, 5kW is plenty, 7kW is luxurious, & anything above is probably not needed.
How much do you drive on average?

Average male in the US between about 20-54 drives 18,500 per year, average family is about ~30,000 per year.
(which corresponds to roughly 74 to 120 miles/weekday)
