We're getting off topic again... I don't think there's any doubt that there is a strong use case to be made for DC super fast charging. This thread is supposed to be about Superchargers vs CHAdeMO chargers...

Dude! I did mention that often in apartments/condos, "anything better than 120 V 'trickle' charging isn't so easy to support". I would concur that EV ownership with absolutely no home charging is often likely to be an exercise in frustration. However, 120 V home charging combined with public rapid charging could be workable as others have mentioned. And for now, I think CHAdeMO should be preferred because it addresses the largest possible number of EV owners (hopefully to include Tesla owners with an adapter).Sorry dude but I think you've been drinking the Kool-ade. Try this though experiment: imagine you live in an apartment or condo with no access to charging in your parking space (if you actually have your own). How would you charge your car?

I think the consensus is that for long road trips super chargers are clearly superior.
Of course they are, but CHADEMO adapter doubles your recharging places. I really don't see why you're arguing here...
