CCS - buy now or wait?

[EdJack]

What is going to be the future of EA with all this NACS talk?

Electrify America announced today they would be installing NACS connectors to its chargers.

I would imagine they are going to be the FIRST change toward NACS that most of us see, Tesla can just send them to their manufacturer and they can buy a bunch of cables, they are probably the same length as one of the two cables that come on the front of early EA dispensers. Just swap out the one that favors the Tesla charge port position and leave the CCS one for non-NACS vehicles (Leafs, iMievs, Old Kias and Old Teslas excepted)

I use my CC1 adapter frequently at the Florida FPL Evolution 350kWh chargers because they are usually cheaper than the Tesla 250kWh chargers. Well worth it in my opinion.

What’s the typical $ amount per kWh?

What’s the typical $ amount per kWh?

Very often $0.11 difference in price.
Depends on TOD
FPL remains constant at $0.30 kWh whereas Tesla chargers vary. You can see the price on the screen in your vehicle at the different locations. Rockledge is one of the locations that I've been to along I95

It's worth it to look at all the locations ahead of you as there is often a charger between all the expensive ones that is crazy cheap. I planned my current trip before leaving the house, but I am making changes as I go because my assumption Superchargers were all 43¢/kWh on the freeway, but I have hit several that are flat 27¢
