If you prefer long waits and slow charging speeds, then you've come to the right charging station.
*$0.48 - this is how much I paid today for this experience
*59kW max speed when connected to a 150 kW charging station
*32-70%
*31 minutes spent charging
There are no pictures to share on this review, just lots of frustrations before 6am.
I now have to be at this location between 430-6am to charge without having to wait. This location needs more charging stations. Of the 3 stations one is ALWAYS out of order and sometimes even 2.
There are at least 2-3 EVs queueing to charge, constant wait at all hours except for 11pm to 4am if that works for you.
My experience this morning was painful where the charging speed maxed at 59 kW. Absolutely regretting charging here at 5am.
The next EA charging location is 10 miles in San Dimas. That location has 350kW and waits too, but goes faster because of the faster charge speed. Add more stations at the Target DB.
The EA app is not consistent with the reality of the charging stations. What shows as available on the app (for example station 1), is not operating in reality it's been like this For so long and erodes at the reliability of the EA app. I'm going to bet it's been called in already and there's a work order on it. It's frustrating for customers who see it. People back into the spot, going through the motions of connecting to charge, sometimes they call customer service, vicious cycle really.
It's super frustrating having to troubleshoot but unable to connect (90% failure rate, it's rare). When in reality so many people have already done this, but the app keeps showing open availability.
Someone actually taped a handwritten sign on station #1 that says, out of order. But of course someone else ripped it off, because they're special, oh wait they were not able to connect. Surprise surprise! read more
