Do not use Florida Turnpike

[Logal727]

Tesla is moving to be a monopoly of charging. V4 + MagicDock will be game over for the "competition".

Well I wish they would hurry that part up, hasn’t been any magicdock expansion that I’ve seen yet

No.
According to the governor, it’s ”where woke comes to die.”

The free state of Florida.

Ever use the Charepoint chargers at Disney Springs?

I did about a month ago, but never got above 26 kW, even starting at around 40% SOC.

I’d go hang out at Art Smiths for a couple hours or go see a movie

Woke may die here in Florida but somewhere in the future the entire state will be just one big lake And woke will drown here.

24 inches of rain at FLL airport.

Yeah they just got 24 inches in two days but where I live we have had less than 2 inches for the year!!

Yeah I think we’re in a dome over here, rain goes right around us or it just sprinkles

I believe I read someplace that Henry ford, Thomas Edison, and Harvey Firestone used to go “camping” in Florida (I think Ormond beach?)

True I been there its Edison and Ford's winter estates. They are right next to each other, and Firestone visited often. Beautiful property and right off the water. It's in Fort Meyers. Fort Myers Museums, Attractions, Things To Do | Edison Ford Winter Estates

I shared some details of my short road trip Miami to Orlando here: https://www.macheforum.com/site/thr...nfrastructure-on-south-central-florida.23700/

FPL Evolution is by far the best we have and hope they continue to expand, the rest as I stated in my post leaves much to be desired and its clear the the state of the EV Charging network outside TESLA is nowhere close to where it needs to be with the growing EV market.

Btw.
I also have installed the FPL Evolution home charger (JuiceBox) with their fixed monthly charge of $31 and I must say its a good charger and a very reasonable price for unlimited charge including the hardware

The part of FPL Evolution Home that I don't like is the 10-year commitment that is part of the deal. That said, I current pay about $30/month for charging at home, and if I were to start driving more, I would have to consider it. I just wish they would let me use the JuiceBox that I already own rather than theirs.

I feel like this is basically the state of DCFC across most of the US right now.

I live just south of the White Mountains in NH. There are no non Tesla DCFC in the northern 2/3 of the state. It is impossible to drive from Boston and do a full circuit around the Whites. We have 2 Tesla fast charging locations that would make it easily possible and when I go by them they are always empty. It is so frustrating. NH is going to put a few in but it is still 2 years away. Love my MME but driving northeast from here is impossible unless you cross into Canada.

To me it really makes a difference since my Son is using the Mach-E for his work where he is putting a lot of miles a week, we were paying almost 90 a month to charge (we would have paid almost $400 a month in gas) so I'm saving about $60 a month so even if I cancel early the saving for just a year make up on the cancellation fee.

I do need to sell the Wallbox - Pulsar Plus that the JuiceBox replaced to get back some money on that

Is this a regularJuiceBox 40 with a NEMA 14-50 plug, perhaps with special FPL firmware? I guess I should review the cancellation terms more closely.
