    I found spots even though it showed they were busy before I got there, and I think that’s because the chargers are fast.

    Never using this Ev charger, I have a Tesla and there’s $2.99 fee plus they hold $55 when you use a credit card and the hold doesn’t come off for 3-5 days which makes no sense. Also with my Tesla the charge would just stop when the doors lock so you can’t walk away from the car. Tried the charger twice and they put a $55 hold both times and the charging stopped both times when my doors locked. Will be driving the 20mins to Tesla charger instead of using this charger. I don’t think there should be such a high credit card hold.

    Complete rip-off: $2.99 "session fee" for using a credit card not shown anywhere on the charger? Because I don't have enough apps/subscriptions on my phone that I need another random app for a once in a while charging stop? Tesla supercharger will hopefully come online soon and put then out of their misery.

    2 out of 3 stations are working (Sami isn’t working) People charging to 100% while there’s a line of people waiting to charge.

    Only 4 chargers at this location. I was tracking this site as we were about 1 hr from the charger. The app is not that quick to update status, so it might appear they are all free, but they are all busy. I appreciate that the few vehicles charging before me stopped at 80%, which is proper etiquette (unless you really need the extra miles), since it slows down considerably above 80% state of charge. I have a Rivian R1S, and we were only there 10min to get enough juice to finish the trip. Averaged speed of about 145kw on the 350kw charger with another vehicle plugged into the same one. I wish there were more chargers at this location, and more food options. That said, the halal chicken and pizza place was good with good prices. And during open hours, the Hornitas bakery is awesome. Note that in the same parking lot Tesla has about a dozen chargers installed, and almost ready to go. I did not see this last time. This will be a good option in the future.
