A possible request that I had suggested on another thread was for Plugshare to not just list amps, but also volts. As an example from one of my recent long roadtrips, we used a lot of Sun Country chargers that tend to be listed as 'CS90/80 amps'. If a charger is 80 amps/240 volts, you can actually get 80 km/hour charge with a twin charger. However, most industrial-type installs of Sun Country chargers tend to only be 200-ish volts, so it mean you can only get about 69 km/hour. That said, there are actually some examples of 80 amp Sun Country chargers that are either residential, or near-residential-type, than have proper 240 volts. For example there is a 'car cafe' restaurant/coffee shop in Trois-Riviers, PQ that has the 80/240 combo, which gave us the full 80 km/hour. I mostly mention it because if you are doing a longer road trip, the difference between 80 km/hour and 69 km/hour charge rate is huge. So, it would be great to know volts as a general rule.
