Since they're designed for employees to recharge during the workday, anything more than level 2 @ 30A would probably be overkill in 99.5% of cases.

Yeah, they're all the 210V/30A variety. It's too bad, because I think the 30A plugs are kinda flimsy (not because it's only 30A) - but they've been testing them (though there really hasn't been enough cars using them to really call it a valid test).
On the other hand, one of the HPC's had it's Tesla connector dropped and it had to be replaced (the metal ended up with a facture in it that had enough of an offset towards the center to prevent connection), so maybe cheap-and-easy-to-replace is a better way to go.

By the by, http://mychargepoint.net/earthday/ is 'giving' out ChargePoint cards (catch: if you want to be able to use the not-free stations, you still need to put down a $25 deposit). Still, nice of them.
