I would appreciate hearing about other members' experiences using either ChargePoint or PlugShare charging stations in the Orange County, SoCal area. TIA
My two cents....every time I have used Chargepoint I have had to call customer service because the charger won't turn on. EVERY SINGLE TIME. Once the hold time was 30 minutes. I gave up and didn't charge there.
But...when paying through the Plugshare app, it has worked every time. I just used a Plugshare compatible charger on Saturday and it took just one minute to turn on the charger. Pretty cool.

I suppose that you never travel beyond the range of your car's capabilities. when I travel and there isn't a tesla HWPC available wherever it is that I am stopping for the night I've used chargepoint units and they have worked well for me.... you'll probably never need a ChargePoint or PlugShare station. WoT = Waste of Time

Having just returned from Palmdale, I can tell you that your best bet is Plugshare and to be ready to sign up for whatever account is necessary. There is an EVgo CHAdeMO station at the Nissan dealership if you have the adapter.I might be needing a Chargepoint account.
Use PlugShare to scout out the most convenient stations - then use the description in PlugShare or the comments to figure out what type of account you'll need if any.Thanks guys, and thanks @drees ! What account do you refer to? Some of the local Palmdale schools have EV plug-ins and they mention signing up for their internal program.
I use it more often than super charger oddly because there are more of them around.I would appreciate hearing about other members' experiences using either ChargePoint or PlugShare charging stations in the Orange County, SoCal area. TIA
How is the free charging at work going? My office is thinking of installing chargers and the debate of whether they will be free or cheap electricity. We can get cheaper units that don't have metering or the more expensive chargepoint units that have a lot of control of who can use them.I use a ChargePoint station to charge for free at work on a regular basis ... no issues with the RFID cards or phone app.
I get a full charge at 30A in about 8 hours ... very easy to plug in upon arrival in the morning and disconnect in the evening.
My HPWC is used primarily before long trips and then I only use Superchargers on the road when traveling for efficiency.

Really, ahhhh....no.
Yeah, I'm already plotting out some trips I take for business. The Palmdale CA area has zero SpC and very few Chargepoints. No charging at any of the backwater hotels up there either. So I have to find a way to do business there, spend the night, do more business the next day and have enough range to make it to the Mojave or Barstow SpC before heading to Vegas.
