    Supercharger - Tejon Ranch, CA (expanded to 24 V2 stalls)

    Have you tried using evtripplanner.com ? straight miles is a terrible way to drive an ev as it doesn't take the factors you mention into account. evtripplanner will do that for you.

    Need advice on feasibility of the trip from SC in NJ to Austin TX

    Use evtripplanner. Use speed factor of 1.1. From the "rated miles used" line for each leg, add a number of miles you feel comfortable having extra. I use 20-40 miles extra depending on the leg. Charge to the that number of miles range and you will be good, if it gets tight on a leg, slow down...

    188.4 actual miles. Rated miles used 239-263. Depending on speed used. Not as easy when you just look at distance.

    Excel Spreadsheet for Miles and Charging Statistics?

    Maybe run a few trips using evtripplanner, print out the csv File, and see the differences? I do that on every trip and have a few saved. Might be a start.

    How satisfied are you with the non-AP (Classic) V7.0

    Feels like a first year programmer in kindergarten designed the interface. Old one at least looked like buttons and switches. Here's hoping the kid makes it to college before he redesigns it.
