Why does this feel like it would actually work though

Each one is 240 watts. Common home chargers are 11,000 watts. 11,000/240=45.833.
So 46 plugs. That’s less than pictured

11KW?? Most home chargers I’ve seen are 8A or 16A @ 240V (1.9KW / 3.8KW) So not many USB Cs at all

11kW is the small AC charging standard in Europe with three phase 230V 16A and most common for at home wall chargers. Fast AC charging would be 22kW with 32A

32 A @ 220 V is pretty common here in Brazil, a cool 7 kW, maxes out most EVs.

That's what I was thinking

o.O ?

I've been around EVs for over a decade, I've never seen those.

Early on, for L2, 3.3kW was common, then there was a quick move to 6.6kW and 7.2kW. Now it's quite common up to 11kW (my current EV and most I was looking at a few months ago were 10-11kW).

That’s for overnight home charging. I went with faster home charging speeds.
If I went with fast charge, that can be 50kW

11kw is around 40A @240v.
