In the last month or so 4 of the 15 Blink Quick Chargers in Tennessee have gone offline.
I'm planning a 100 mile trip in a couple of weeks & the charging station at the 50 mile mark is offline. I spoke to Blink Customer Service today and he said there was no ticket or plan to fix the location (Cracker Barrel @ Kimball, TN) that the charger was not communicating with the network. He said it might be working, it might just need to be reset or it might be down. He didn't know.
So, Car Charging Group seems more inept than Ecotality, which could always at least tell me if a unit was working or not.
I plan to stop after 25 miles and L2 charge to 100ish% then drive about 55 miles to the L3 in Chattanooga (Chattanooga has 3 L3 chargers within 10 miles) that should get me the last 30 miles. Going backwards will be the part that's not fun... in December.. at night...
Anyone heard anything about Car Charging Group possibly replacing the Blink L3s with a more reliable unit?
