Sorry about the delay. Was busy researching & planning my route to confirm that I actually needed it. I discovered a couple new fast chargers on my route that will cover me start to finish.
I greatly appreciate your patience and price, but fortunately I will not be needing it after all...
Good point RL. Once I confirm the details of these chargers I will be happy to share my findings.
I discovered The Dept of Energy website this week and it is supposed to have every EV charging station in the nation on their map...
That sounds like fun!
As I'm sure you know, the Blink chargers at the Royal Farms are only 60 Kw chargers while the EV Connect chargers at First State Chevy are 120 Kw chargers (supposedly).
Have you charged at either of them before? Do you know something I (most likely) don't?
Why not...
Great insight into solving this charging puzzle, thx!
You know you have also made me aware of a whole other problem, which is planning my trip back.
As you said, I’ll need a pretty decent charge for my return trip too, something I need to think more about. Thanks.
After charging at the Queenstown outlets, I’ll be going down 404 and charging at first State Chevy in Georgetown DE at 113 & 404. There is also a blink charger at the Royal Farms nearby so I feel good about my chances. With luck I should arrive in Bethany with more than a 60% charge. Then...
Plug share has been very helpful.
BTW, I spoke to a rep at the EV Institute today. They have a lot of chargers on the coast, including Ocean City and Bethany. he said the chargers in Ocean City are down again due to a power surge, which seems to happen a lot there due to what he called dirty...
Great info, Mike. Greatly appreciated!
I'm going to Bethany via Rt. 404 and believe I can get there with two charging stops. First one at the Queenstown Outlets (they have four, 350 Kw EA chargers X 2 hoses = 8 charging spots) and a second stop at First State Chevy/Royal Farms at 113 & 404.
I...
HI James,
If still for sale, how much to purchase today (including shipping to zip code 20877-2013)?
Today, as in.........right now? I need it for a trip and I'm leaving Saturday 7/27/2024. However unless I can get it before I go then I'll just wait for my free one from Ford.
Please feel free...
How does charging at a house work? For example, do you plug the Ford portable charger into the electric dryer's 240 Vac/30 amp receptacle? Where do you get the adapter for that? Home Depot?
Or, do you just trickle charge using the Ford portable charger in a 120 Vac receptacle?
I'm hoping my free Ford/Tesla adapter will arrive before I need to travel. It's due this month (July) but I have a bad feeling about that actually happening. Hate to buy one and then get home to find it was delivered while I was away.
Things may be getting better. I found 5 locations that now have CCS/SAE Level 3 chargers on the Delmarva Peninsula. See my reply to Scorpio3d.
I just hope they all work!
Boy are you ever right about that!
I think things are finally getting a little better. See my reply to Scorpio3d for a list of fast chargers on the Delmarva Peninsula.
Safe travels and Happy Hunting!
