Over the holidays I was driving from Los Altos to Truckee - which I cannot do non-stop - and pulled into the Vacaville Supercharger. It was nearly packed (one bay open) with locals. I was only able to get 30kW until someone left.
I have trouble understanding why these people bother. With a PG&E E-9 rate they can charge at home off-peak for $0.04/kWh. A full 85kWh charge will cost them $3.40 and they can enjoy the comfort of their home while they charge. They really must value their time at a very low rate if they are willing to spend an hour or more to save $3.40.
I would be very happy to pay a nominal charge for using a supercharger if it would help discourage use by people who don't need them - so they will be available for people who do.
Perhaps Telsa should have you swipe a credit card and charge you $10 each time you use a supercharger. They then track your car and give you a refund if you were traveling far enough that you needed the charge (0.8*starting range - distance travelled < 30 + allowance for any hills). If you drive home less than 30 miles away after charging (and you had more than 60 miles left before starting) they keep the $10.
