Interesting EV article

Thanks for the detailed explanation of charging wws944.  A lot more detail than I’ve heard about.  Here in my corner of SE PA charging stations are the more generic kind rather than Tesla specific chargers.  A new thrift store opened in Ephrata PA with an EV charger that’s located near the horse hitching stalls.  Talk about the very new meets the very old transportation methods.

This one?  Ephrata Visitors Center - Free Electric Car Charging - 47 N State St, Ephrata, PA 17522, USA - Visitor Center - PlugShare

 

That is a Level 2 charging station.  Says it charges at 6.6 kW - likely 30 amps at 208V.  Can't beat the price - free!  Need a Chargepoint account to activate it - either by rfid card or phone app.

No, it’s the Ephrata ReUseit on South State St.  I didn’t see it listed on your map but I have seen the charger and it was mentioned in their advertising that they have it.  There is, I believe, a Tesla charger about 0.5 miles from me at Rock Lititz Hotel, Lititz PA.  Rock Lititz is the name of the Clair Brothers-Tate Towers venture where all the top performers get to rehearse their road shows.  Covid slowed that down to a crawl but it is quite an impressive place.

Here is the Rock Lititz Hotel listing.  I had to enable the 'restricted' filter to find it: https://www.plugshare.com/location/173177

 

Plugshare uses a crowd sourced database.  So If someplace is missing, like the ReUseIt station, anyone can add it.
