That sounds too simple to be true...guess I was overthinking it
So it is as simple as plugging in a battery tender for a normal car? Any advantage to using 220 over 110 for the 918?

I asked the dealer and haven't received a concrete answer yet which is why I decided to ask here in the owner's forum.

I answered. I am owner so its that simple. 220 charges way faster. 110 is just slower.
Car charges itself vey quickly if u drive in gas mode.

could not be any easier, just plug in like any other car charger. I drove mine to Silverstone last week, most of the way on e-power, then plugged in at the track...
