Posting this here since I'm trying to get a sense of *current* usefulness of spending the $450 for a CHAdeMO adapter. I've read lots of the (oldish) posts on this, and many are old, many are from the PNW, where there seems to be a great network for this. But around here (NoVa, rest of the state, down toward NC, even in MD and the Eastern Shore ), it's mostly Nissan dealers and some other spots (a few malls), etc. Royal Farms (site of one new Supercharger) has some at other locations.
Looking at Plugshare, a good deal of the stations seem to be Nissan dealers. The first question would be, has anything changed in their 'welcoming' Tesla (or other) owners to use their charging facilities? You could hope as time goes on, we get away from 'this is my flavor, you have your own flavor, go over there...' sort of mentality.
I wouldn't mind even spending the money for the peace of mind, but not if it can't be used when needed without hassle.
What's the current consensus? Thanks!
