Best? I dunno, using these has never been a very pleasant experience. Nothing sticks out as a particularly pleasant experience. I don’t particularly care for being tracked as I travel either. It would be both faster, easier, and more secure if I could just put a five dollar bill in one and buy a few hours of charge or a $10 bill and buy the charge and parking spot for the night.
For me, ChargePoint chargers are the easiest to use and consistently work best, but usually the most expensive.
Blink chargers are the worst. The app is clunky, slow, and the experience just never feels like they actually vetted the process. Also, it feels like they have a hard time keeping their chargers maintained.
What used to be Volta, now Shell (yeah the oil company) is a hit or miss depending on their charger actually working. Nice thing about Volta is that free is free (for now).
For actually finding working chargers, I use PlugShare.
Can I ask - what’s the best app you found so far?
