I’ve used a few different Chargepoint DCFC just fine (the 50kW ones). Using the chargepoint app to pay.
Ok, you’re correct, some of them are compatible (and this is my 4th ev, I’m a LONG time ChargePoint customer, as they are the most common ones here in KC, and I used them fairly frequently with my i3), but others simply won’t connect, like the one off 119th in Olathe (while the one a couple miles south at the Harley dealership works fine). I talked that chargepoint and they said they would require an upgrade.

Update from the other thread about the Kansas City ChargePoints. Looks like it's a known problem with the decade-old efacec chargers (pictured above)...
Yep, that’s what they look like.

Most ChargePoint stations allow use of NF over the sensor. Just make sure you have NF enabled on your phone.

Yep, it's worked perfectly on every CP charger I've used. Don't even need to have the CP app open.

Wish it worked as consistently on EA chargers.
