I really hope that EA is able to keep up with their charging infrastructure and add stations soon. It's the only type of charger I seek out when traveling because of the fast charging capabilities. I'm a bit worried that they aren't putting in the required O&M to keep them functional and charging at desired rates. Although I've had positive experiences with EA chargers so far, the stations are too few and far between to make me truly comfortable while on a road trip.
I also wonder what will happen during summer months when electrical demand is high in the afternoon; will electric utilities have to limit/throttle electrical draw at these stations to keep the grid stable? If so, that could mean slow charging speeds and long waits.
