I was wondering about where that gas station having EVSE connection came from too. I did not see it in the thread either.
Since I sieve through the recargo listings (form one end to the other), I have seen listings that state there are EVSE at petrol stations. Sadly, there were a few in Utah that are level-1 with a 1 hour time limit, located just outside the pumps. http://www.recargo.com/sites/2596 Level-1 for 1 hour is not going to you get far. It would have been better to install a standard level-2 EVSE that the driver pays for with a 4+ hour time limit and install it well-away-from and upwind-of the carcinogenic-nasties in petrol fumes. {brucedp.150m.com} - On Thu, Feb 7, 2013, at 03:06 PM, EVDL Administrator wrote: > On 7 Feb 2013 at 11:38, Roland Wiench wrote: > > > There is a problem in installing a charging station near the gasoline > > pumps. > > Did I miss something in this thread?
