I’m currently charging at an Electrify America location that only has two working stations, a 350kw and a 150kw. A woman in a Chevy Bolt EV is plugged in at the 350kw, even though her car tops out at 55kw. Now I’m stuck at the 150kw even though my vehicle can take advantage of the 350kw charger. I’m going to guess she doesn’t know about the different charging speeds, as many new EV owners don’t. As EV owners, how can we spread awareness of charging speeds and etiquette?
It’s hard to inform someone like that without sounding like it’s a put down. I’ve read in a few posts that dealers tell them to use the fastest available.
Setting up sites better with load sharing between cabinets would work better long term.
