Steady 10KW load means 40 less miles after an hour of driving if your EV gets 4mi/kwh. That kind of draw would use up nearly 1/6th of my EV's battery in an hour.

Man, EVs are very efficient. I was thinking from the perspective of my 120 HP Hyundai Venue, where it would be only an extra 10% of peak power.
At the same time it's pretty crazy to look at my Ford E-Transit's power draw while on the interstate and think about just how many electronics I could power with the 20-60KW of power draw it takes to maintain 65mph on a relatively flat stretch of highway.
