i drive an electric car. so if i connect my phone to the car’s usb,the whole car ends up being the phone battery. So, two birds, one stone
I’m going petrol, it costs a fortune, is running out and it’s not hard to plug my phone in.
Fuel for me
It’s quite expensive in my country, and my motorbike requires 98 octane
I’d really like an electric motorbike, but there’s nobody really making anything that suits me at the moment

Sure, I have extra
I can charge a phone on the car’s accessory circuit and charge the car battery if there’s gasoline in the tank, so that seems like that’d be more useful.
Fuel. A full charge on my phone is cents, a full tank is $150.
You either have a massive fuel tank or expensive fuel. I’m at about 0.10$/km. How do you compare?
like $0.25-$0.35/km. Fuel is just over $2/L and my car is uhh… not great on fuel.
I don’t drive, so a full tank of petrol wouldn’t be of much use to me.
Fuel. I can just charge the phone off the engine.
Fuel is just free ticket to being a multimillionaire, way easier to extract energy from the tank than from the phone
Phone battery of course. The phone is something I use every day and it’s annoying having to charge it constantly. In a car I don’t mind stopping to get fuel occasionally, it’s an excuse for a break. I only drive for fun and roadtrips so I don’t see any huge savings. Unless I can sell the fuel from the bottomless fuel tank, then I’ll take that option.
My car is also a battery.
I could charge my phone for a year for the same cost as filling my tank once. I’m taking the gas 100% of the time.
That’s without applying any workarounds to the posted rules like siphoning gas from your vehicle into a generator and running my house off a gas powered generator because there are no current parameters against it or restricting how many times you can fill up your tank for free.
A full tank of fuel. I can always charge the phone off the engine, but fuel is expensive.

Ignoring the loophole of using petrol to generate electricity. I can run my house on generators etc.
I don’t mind charging my phone everyday. Managing my motorcycle’s energy is a right pain however. Do I have enough petrol for the trip/day/week, I just want to go home but I have to find a station, is there one on the way, do they have premium. My phone I plug in and let it sort it self out.

I bet that there’s some sort of fuel container that one can get to extend range.

Looks like it.
There is, but that kicks the can (hehe) down the road. It’s not a big issue, I live where petrol is expensive but readily available. I set trip counters on the dash, I know roughly how many miles a full tank does and exactly how many miles since I last filled the bike.
The convenience would be to never have to think about petrol again. That’s more than the convenience to never plugging my phone in again.
Full tank. Nothing gives me more anxiety than car anxiety.
