I did a month or so ago. Was part of a longer Death Valley trip and was staying overnight in lone pine so no real advice re charging, but it is well worth the visit.
Thanks for reassurance. We will be staying in Lone Pine for the night too during our upcoming trip, Manzanar is on the list already.

Manzanar is a good stop. They have a nice museum and a film in the restored gymnasium.
I have a friend who was interned there when he was 5 years old. His father had owned a small grocery store which was taken away for which they were never reimbursed. My friend's father died while at Manzanar.
Sorry to hear about your friend's father. It is a shameful card in US history.
I did visit the Manzanar. We actually stayed in Lone Pine for the night. I posted about it on my blog: California, here we come! (Road trip 2018 – part 10)
Ray's Den Motel in Independence, just north of Lone Pine is a great place to stay and has charging via a Nema 14-50. In Lone Pine, Seasons restaurant is seriously good food and service. Great wines as well. The "Mt Wilson" coffee drink is excellent!
A friend of mine who drove from LA to Mammoth a few days ago said there were only 4 chargers. Today, on his way back south to LA, there are suddenly 3 more chargers making 7 at Lone Pine. Though these last three are mounted temporarily on skids. Must be getting ready for holiday weekend.
