How much do you charge for allowing ev to charge up?

How much do you add to charge for ev?

Hi @Maria19875 , 

Do you advertise that you have an EV charger in your listing? I assume so. I have an EV but don't list that we have one on our property, but if I did, I'd add it as an amenity and would not charge them an added fee. 

One way you could do this is by adding what it costs to charge an EV to your nightly rental cost. Not only will you get a bit of extra $ each stay for any guest not using it, but the last thing a guest wants is any added surprises.

That's how we would go about this.

@Jason2389 I find your response very strange. If you do this for EV drivers (essentially subsidising EV drivers by overcharging ICE drivering guests)  why not  offer to fill up the tank of ICE drivers when they stay with you to ensure fairness?

@Maria19875 I would charge the EV drivers your cost of electricity plus say 5%. This will be massively less than they pay at a public charger and they will be grateful for the convenience of charging overnight.

@Mike-And-Jane0 I'm not sure what you mean by ICE drivers, but all I'm saying is if there's a struggle to figure out how much to charge, you can always add it to your nightly charge without publically listing it.

For example, if you charge 150£ usually a night, you charge 155£ a night and list that you have an EV charger for use as an amenity.

It's the same reason if you have a hot tub you wouldn't say it costs 10£ to use

Your hot tun analogy is false in that a hot tub amenity is usable by all guests. An EV charger is not.

Well you do you then my friend!
