And this is how you say you don't know about electricity without saying it. That 15amp will get throttled by the charger and or the car by about 15-20% from the get.

Not to mention that in addition to the above. Not only is the cost difference negligible between amperages, having a much higher rated plug in the garage or in my case on the side of the house will come in handy for most people at some point. I went for the highest I could get in the timeframe and cost parameters I was working with. I'd actually love to get higher but I don't know how much more I can get without having another line from my power company and going with DC which would be awesome but isn't worth the cost and the hassle (at the moment).
