ICYMI Troubleshooter: Can you live in the country with an EV? — via drivingdotca Sustainability ElectricVehicles

Recently, in the small eastern Ontario town where I hang my day-job hat, a chapter of the Canadian Federation of University Women organized and hosted a well-attended EV panel discussion with local EV owners taking questions and relating their experiences leaving fossil fuels behind. Due in part to the lack of public charging stations in smaller towns and rural areas, most of the panellists reported charging their EVs at home unless on an extended journey. Some tried living with the simplecharging cord included with their vehicle, but only for a short time before upgrading their home garage with a Level 2 unit.
Fast DC or Level 3 charging stations are becoming popular for roadside service facilities because they can deliver 80% of charge within 30 minutes or less, but are harder on the battery. Some vehicles are programmed to slow down the charge after 80% is reached, and one panelist stated it wasn’t worth waiting for that last 20% of power. They instead recommended simply travelling as far as personally comfortable before plugging in again.
