I thought I would let everyone know that I've got a deal worked out to install 80amp J1772 chargers in Lander and Riverton Breadboard Restaurants. Should have everything up and running before the holidays.

I already have the funding to do a few more, just need to find interested host locations. I'm totally open to suggests on locations, really any where in or around Wyoming that is in need of public charging stations.I hope this goes well so that you can expand to other towns around the state.
Cooke City, Montana would be nice for those traveling the Yellowstone area. Just my two cents.
How is the project going ?I thought I would let everyone know that I've got a deal worked out to install 80amp J1772 chargers in Lander and Riverton Breadboard Restaurants. Should have everything up and running before the holidays.
Looks like one of the WattZilla EVSEs, which has an optional credit card reader. These systems are based on the OpenEVSE design. For my curiosity, if you have access inside those boxes, could you post a picture of the inside of the EVSE and how that credit card reader plugs into the main WattZilla control board.
Once I finish up an unrelated major project, hopefully by this summer, I plan on developing an RFID reader add-on for the OpenEVSE project. Similar to the large EVSE installation at CalTech, I think this will need to have a Raspberry Pi installed to handle the RFID reader functions. Would be nice to have access controls and logging on the opensource EVSE option.
It used to be and A&W Restaurant a long time ago.Looks like a Sonic without the pizazz(??).

@pox , could you please send your location addresses to PlugShare as they come online? I'm not seeing the Riverton station on there.Just an update, the Credit Card reader is now working! We now have 24/7 access to an 80am

Thanks for making this investment and opening up more of Wyoming.
I do think Tesla will fill in I-80 in Rock Springs, Rawlins, and Evanston fairly quickly so if I were you I would focus on the interior areas. I'm guessing they complete I-80 and I-25 through Wyoming before the summer is over. They marched through Iowa and Nebraska fairly methodically over the last few months so I expect them to fill in the gap in Wyoming next.[/QUOT
Thanks, I'm trying really hard. Finding locations has been by far the hardest part. I sure could use some help in finding interesting locations to host charging stations. My funding is limited so I'll be making use of grant funding in certain locations. As EV usage increases and we get some revenue. I will then fill in places that don't have any grants funding. I'd also consider taking on sponsors if anyone or business are interested in helping out in a particular town.
