    home charging is much more convenient than supercharging, not to mention, the supercharging you said is a 72kw supercharger which charge extremely slow. BTW always charging at supercharger is not recommended and will somehow demage your battery.

    yeah I just confirmed that this place is not accessable. The sheetz is moving and might want to discard the supercharger. The parking lot has been locked by fence and superchargers are covered by red carpet. The nearest supercharger that close to Washington DC is lexington which is a 90 miles away.
