Digest pruned of many lines, remaining stuff is pertinent, subject line changed. I'm surprised it's taken this long for PlugShare to pop up in the discussion. I've been listed since our Xebra days (anyone remember that rolling disaster?) but that was 110v back then. 10Kw level 2, NEMA 6-50 and 110v now, powered by solar. Re: charging signs: I've visited the site and can't find dimensions nor a means to order. I have a laser cutter and can engrave Trotec acrylic (two color) which would look just like the signs on the web site, but it might be less expensive to buy an aluminum sign. Trotec prices are high and shipping kills the deal. If the aluminum signs are not available and there's enough demand, I can produce in quantity sufficient to justify the purchase, plus customize every sign as desired.

Would be a fun challenge to get across the country on free electrons. Message: 6 From: Lee Hart <leeah...@earthlink.net> You could certainly cross the northern part of the USA on free charging. In the northern parts, free public 120v outlets are everywhere. They were originally installed to plug in block heaters so people's ICEs would start in the winter. Most states also have building codes that require outdoor AC outlets. They get used for Christmas lights, lawn mowers, etc. It's polite to ask for permission to use them. But in all my years of driving EVs, I've almost never been turned down. Then of course, you could bring PV panels, and charge from the sun.

Presumably to other EVers, yes? That's a great idea - helping folks who might otherwise be stranded. How do you do that? Is the charging port bi-directional? Can you charge any other EV, or just Teslas? If just Teslas, any Tesla, or just another model S? David Roden, EVDL moderator & general lackey ------------------------------ Message: 8 From: Jay Summet <j...@summet.com> The PlugShare App & Website lists a lot of them. (There are a lot of cities and businesses that put in no-charge EVSE's to attract business....or just because it's cheaper to give it away than pay the fees to maintain the accounting system to charge for it.)

THe EV Charging OUtlet sign is the most important part. Not so much for the 1%R that might actually need a charge but for the other 99% to see everyday and subliminally realize theat EV's can chagfe almsotg anywhere. We have been quite successful in getting peo[ple to put up signs over their out door outlets: See http://aprs.org/EV-charging-signs.html Bob, WB4APR -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
