Claim 7:
8. A method of charging a battery of a vehicle, the method comprising:
establishing an electrical connection between a plug at a terminal end of an electrical charging cord and the vehicle;
supplying power to the vehicle via the electrical charging cord and the plug;
detecting, with a controller, a level of charge of the battery;
determining with the controller, at least one charging parameter of the vehicular charger to be used in charging the battery, the at least one charging parameter comprising at least one of a group consisting of a voltage and an amperage;
calculating, with the controller, an amount of time needed to charge the battery based at least in part upon the level of charge of the battery and the at least one charging parameter;
displaying, with the controller, the amount of time needed to charge the battery on the display;
wirelessly transmitting the amount of time needed to charge the battery to another controller remote from the vehicle and the battery for display to a user of the other controller; and
in response to receiving a signal from the user via the other controller during an active charging session, changing a charging state of the battery.
