PiP will charge in a little over an hour, averages 11 miles or so on 1 charge (but some folks have gotten it up to 21 miles, YMMV of course). I'm surprised PiP owners are paying for charging their car, as it doesn't make sense from a financial point of view (so these drivers must be driving a PiP for environmental reasons). Personally, I never used a public charging station when I had my PiP, as I didn't want to risk stranding BEV drivers for such little reward.
