How can there be 100's of different plug varieties when there areonly 10's of different elctric cars yet.
I think the 'hundreds of plug varieties' comment is hyperbole
Also, how can plug-design speed up charge time 24 times?
The plug design change added more pins (the DC ones) and those can be used to deliver more amps quickly

From the Wikipedia's EEStor article, you CAN fast charge at home without a ridiculous electrical system -- IF you have a second EESU that slowcharges overnight:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EEStor
"Overnight charging at home should still be practical,[6] as is using a second EESU for the home which could be charged overnight using cheap, off-peak electricity to then charge the EEStor unit in the car in 5-10 minutes on demand - and deliver cheap electric power to the house too, making expensive peak power plants obsolete.[7]"
