A Twitch streamer pulled into a Walmart parking lot to charge his electric car and posted a 12-second clip asking a question many EV owners have asked while standing in the rain: Why don’t EV chargers have canopies the way gas pumps do?

The answer has to do with history, safety, and the looming arrival of a new generation of charging stations that will have all the features he asks for and more.

The clip was posted by KvX_Ghost (@kvx_ghost), a Twitch gamer whose channel on TikTok is mostly stream clips. It has drawn more than 9,600 views.

In the video, KvX_Ghost speaks to camera from his car while parked at a Walmart charger.

“You know, owning an electric car is nice, but why can’t we build chargers with covers like a gas station?” he says.
