This is what I did. My dryer is on the other side of the wall shared by my garage. Electrical code speaking, the circuit that is used for a dryer in the US can only have one outlet, But nothing really stops you from adding a second outlet. I just make sure I don’t run the dryer and charge the car at the same time to avoid popping the circuit breaker, Like avoiding using a kettle and a toaster oven the same time on the same circuit.
He talks about it in the video, but there are $100-300 splitter interlocks that you plug into your dryer outlet, and then you have 2 outlets. The device will electrically prevent using both outlets at once.
Way cheaper than paying to pull more circuits, and a bit safer than your “just remember” system, especially if you have guests.
