Observed this south of San Francisco, CA recently, when I started supercharging near 3:45 pm,
then seeing the TOU notice from the map screen for that location kicking in at 4:00 pm with a rate 50% higher.
I wondered which rate would apply (or a blend of both) if I overstayed. At first the charge on
the screen seemed to jump at 4:00pm, with my total bill being $21.06 at the end. I didn't keep precise
notes on kWh used over which interval, but amusingly, when I got home to check the Tesla account
charge it was only $14.04 -- the starting rate to the penny!
I'm not sure if I'd rely on this gift, thinking that I'll now plan to finish charging by that certain time
in the future. However, it makes sense this way -- if one was at an old-fashioned
gas pump and the displayed rate changed during the middle of a tank fill the reaction would be swift.
Perhaps this is why county, state, or provincial entities have started to regulate that EV "pump"
digital signage for kWh will be required.
