They will always have a healthy market as long as the price is right and batteries are getting cheaper every week!DaveinOlyWAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16745403231379474738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3022888953328060401.post-81673694296543261442016-03-23T20:23:25.288-07:002016-03-23T20:23:25.288-07:00Well, that's a bummer Dave. I have not had th...Well, that's a bummer Dave. I have not had the experience of eVgo chargers dialing down when there was a L2 in use, mostly because in this state there are still so few EV's around that generally the chargers (if they're working) are vacant. I have had the experience of the card reader not validating my card at some stations and having to call in as a result. This happened at 2 of 4 different locations I've used. This happens with some Chargepoint stations too, though there are not many of those around any more.<br /><br />What really needs to happen though is that EV's have to gain the 250 mile range point and that will greatly reduce the need for so many public chargers. Eventually I think EV's will cross the 500 mile mark, but that may still be a few years off, and longer still until all of the manufacturers catch up probably. <br /><br />Hopefully they'll get this worked out. Good luck Dave, and thanks for posting.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09146849492122247411noreply@blogger.com
