    Plug & Charge issues with EA

    After renewing my free subscription I stopped by the same Tampa Fl EA station today. The first 350kW dispenser I tried did not authorize my car automatically. After learnng how to use the Porsche app to start a dispenser I tried a second time at this dispenser using the app before plugging in...

    Plug & Charge issues with EA

    Looks like the Free Charging must be renewed yearly, even though it's free.

    Plug & Charge issues with EA

    Stopped by Tampa FL, EA station, recently rebuilt with all new single handle 350kW dispensers. None of them would authorize my Taycan P&C. Received connection error and Payment Denied. Took an hour on the phone to get a complementary charge session started on old 150kW charger. I’m reluctant to...

    First Road Trip Musings/Charging Infrastructure is a Joke

    The scary issue with CCS public charging is the eventual overcrowding of the stations due to the free juice given away with many of the CCS cars. Locals are going to both EA & EVgo to charge up rather than charging at home bc it's free! On my recent roadtrip on the east coast around Christmas...

    Randomly looking at plugshare when not road tripping

    Been driving electric for 3 years now on Audi e-tron and a year on Taycan. Have several handsful of road trips on both cars. Login to PlugShare all the time to see what's going on. Before a roadtrip I check planned stops for maintenance. EA claims they announce major maintenance two weeks in...

    First Experience with EA Charging on Road Trip

    My Taycan drew 175Kw from an EA 150Kw charger. If you roll into a station with 24% battery you will be down to 175Kw on a 350Kw charger quickly anyway. There is also a battery saving setting that lowers the charge over the whole charge time. So using a 150Kw charger is not a big penalty. Things...

    EA (Electrify America) Sucks - that is all

    I stopped by the EA site in Tampa recently, the crew thought another 2 weeks. Currently have an email into EVgo about the three Dunkin’ Dougnuts chargers that have been out of service for ever. I have an eTron as well and charge at home most of the time. Hoping CCS public charging gets better...

    End of my Taycan Journey

    Many of us will be anxious to hear what the insurance settlement is. Dealers are asking a lot for used Taycans. Lets see if the insurance company will consider current market trends.

    Taycan parked in below freezing conditions; any advice?

    Run 110V extension cord to the car and let it charge on 110V the whole time?

    EA (Electrify America) Sucks - that is all

    Hopefuly CCS public charging gets better over time and Tesla opens their network to us in areas where there are no CCS DCFC, like Delaware.

    EA (Electrify America) Sucks - that is all

    Okay, EVgo has a few dead chargers in my area as well. Hopefully, you can find some that work.

    EA (Electrify America) Sucks - that is all

    My experience, RFID cards work instantly 100% of the time on EVgo chargers. Same with Chargepoint chargers as well.

    When I put the 240v pigtail on and plug into outlet it doesn't light up

    Are you sure the 14-50 pigtail is fully pulgged into the charger?

    Rock chip in windshield

    You can get glue that may make it invisible. Windshield repair co use it as well. I had good luck repairing one myselg. Because it's in the field of vision may need to replace it.

    Nearly got stranded due to crappy EA charging ststem

    Now that Tesla is selling a CCS adapter for cheap and EA is cheaper than Tesla SuCrs expect to see Teslas at CCS chargers as well.
