This is one of the worst exits they could have chosen in Mobile. The amount of of homeless and drug usage in this parking lot is enough to keep me away in the day time. One exit over at the Aldi would have been a much better choice. It has two coffee shops, a local favorite chicken finger place, and a What a burger all in walking distance. Luckily, I live 10 minutes away and will never have to charge here.
I was there last week, mid-morning. Next to an old decrepit shopping center. Didn’t see anything scary, but still only got out of the car to plug-in/unplug.
i haven’t done a lot of supercharging but this was the sketchiest one I’ve been to.

Very useful V3 mini-splitter on I-10, and for the I-10/I-65 transition, that will effectively replace the old Mobile V2.

We had no trouble getting from d’Iberville MS all the way to Greenville AL so I’ve never stopped at the Mobile one.
I’ve stopped at Tillman’s corner a couple of times overnight (pre-Tesla). Lots of hotels, caters to travelers.

I drove by this location this evening and there were 15-20 homeless people in small groups in front of the strip mall. In my opinion this is significantly worse than the current Mobile charging location
I was passing through the area and stopped by here to check on it. I did not see any signs of construction.
I also did not see any homeless people, but I did see a marauding band of seagulls roving the parking lot.

Yup... in addition to that, busted handles and derated chargers too... At least its trailer friendly. Talking to my local family, it wasn't like that 10 years ago but covid basically put the nail in the coffin of that mall.
