Be ready for a comprehensive LEAF quiz! The highest score gets a prize. Also, I hope to have a working prototype of the new LEAFscan that displays all your battery and car data straight from its computer.
DC quick charge demonstration, door prizes, new bigger meeting room, yummy food !!
8am-ish: The truly hard core LEAFers who want the best parking spot arrive. If you want one-on-one time with the most addicted EV aficionadoes, this is a great time. Plus, it should still be relatively cool.
9am - 10am: Arrivals, please park in the lot directly across Midland street from the train depot.
Breakfast in the back room reserved for us at Hamburger Factory restaurant.
10am - 10:55am: We're moving up to a bigger meeting room. General meeting will be at building across the courtyard near the windmill, called Templars Hall. It's the larger wooden building. We will pass the hat for $3-$5 typically to pay for the room rental from the city.
10:55am - 11:05am: Intermission
11:05am - 12pm: Second half of meeting, then picking up chairs and clean up.
After 12 noon: Lots of mulling around the cars that usually lasts through 1pm.
Displays:
Andromeda Power will display and demonstrate their DC quick charger
Marvin K. Brown auto dealership has been invited to display the new Coda electric car (they are also the Fisker dealer)
Car2go will display their Smart electric vehicle.
Guests:
I've invited Luigi Giubbolini, President of Andromedapower.com to our meeting. He's producing an exciting line of DC quick chargers, and is located right here in sunny SoCal. We should have this unit operational to try on your car.
We will have Masao Nishikawa at our April 7 meeting to talk a bit about the installed JFE DC quick charger at the SDG&E Energy Innovation Center, 4760 Clairemont Mesa Blvd, San Diego, CA 92117, west of the 805 freeway. Their charger has a 25kWh battery and 20kW charger that draws from the grid to recharge that battery, all in one big container, and a pedestal and ChaDeMo connector to recharge your car at 50kW.
Mike Cully of Car2Go has confirmed he will be returning (I think he's having too much fun at his job!). Come out and check out the Smart EV by-the-minute rental.
Andy Hoskinson and David Gatcha of Ecotality / Blink have confirmed their team will be returning. One of these times he'll be telling about a DC charger somewhere!
Hopefully, we'll have updates from EV Oasis and ChargeBliss.
Also invited are folks from:
California Public Utilities Commission (the folks who regulate the electric demand chargers for utilities)
California Center for Sustainable Energy (the folks who send you your $2500 - $5000 rebate check)
SanDag (The San Diego Association of Governments is the San Diego region's primary public planning, transportation, and research agency)
City of Poway
City of San Diego's Mayor's office
NRG/eVgo, the folks just gifted by the State of California to install $100 million in EV infrastructure throughout the state, including 200 DC quick chargers over 4 years.
