Why would you want to use these slow 400v 72-150kw chargers when you can use the EAs for free?

There are areas of the country where there are no operational CCS chargers, like Delaware for example. I would be estastic for even a 50KW charger in Rehoboth De.
Hopefully, as time goes on the idea of anyone charging anywhere may become the norm.

Because there are plenty of Tesla chargers and only a limited number of Electrify America ones?

At least in California there are more EA chargers than Tesla Superchargers. How are people dealing with the short SuperCharger cable? Taking up 3 spaces and park horiztonally?

The area between San Antonio and South Padre Island is an EA wasteland. Not a single EA charging station. It would be great to have access to the Supercharger network there.

because they actually work? Half Moon Bay today - needed EA to work - 4 chargers - 4 broken chargers - apparently been that way for at least 10 calendar days…

had to use an EVGo charger.

free doesn't matter if it doesn't work.

EA's reliability is terrible - superchargers on the other hand are far far better.
