1st CCS charger did not work … might have been operator error. 2nd CCS (Spock) with the EVgo app was smooth & effortless!

Close to the beach & across street from train station! 6 DC charging stalls.
100% Renewable Energy. They should fill the remainder of the spaces with Level 2 chargers for those parked here for longer periods. Great location.
