They need superchargers in town, destination chargers are useless when it isn’t close to where you are staying. The smart thing to do would be charge up to 80% right outside of ocean city for the week but that could take 15-20 minutes and sometimes when you finally get there you just want to get there and not stop for that long. I’m not sure why the superchargers were so slow on the way back but they were charging at around 85kw.
Exactly. I’m told there are some superchargers in West OC right across the Rt 50 bridge now but I haven’t seen them. Luckily the place we usually rent has a city Level 2 charger in a town parking lot across coastal highway we could leave it at overnight to charge and just walk across the road.
Were they 150 kW chargers? Those share with the charger next to them and will cut in half.
All the v3 chargers are pretty much gone around where I live replaced with v4. Tesla fast chargers are so numerous in California they probably outnumber gas stations
Thats the weird thing, they were 250kw chargers. I’m not sure why they were so slow charging and I never park next to another car when charging. I moved to another one to see if it was better and it was the same so I left. The one closer to home was normal.

There are two of them, one at the Wawa and the other at the Royal Farms, about 10 chargers each. When arriving before the bridge just look to the right in those gas stations and you will see them, they are right next to the highway.

With 250 kW they don't share, they must have been limiting power to all chargers for some reason.
The longest I've spent at a Tesla charger traveling to SoCal last year was 20 minutes. By the time I went to the bathroom, came back and got a quick snack it was time to get going
