I have noticed more chargepoint level 2 stations supporting 14.4 kWh, which would be a great plan b if chademo was out. I would see if there were ny options out there for a higher rated replacement to the stock.

Apologies, meant evgo.
4141 Pearl Rd, Medina, OH 44256
Level 2 j1772 at this site are 14.4kW (is that 2 phase?). Only a few cars can charge level 2 at that rate in the US.

Thats a glitch in how plugshare reports that station (well, a bunch of L2s). It's 2 ports of L2 at ~32A 208V. Not 14kW.

I agree.
Wow, I haven't seen that mistake made by Plugshare here in the north east.
I just reported that EVgo station mistake to Plugshare. Maybe they'll fix it.

Exactly 1 checkin that claimed to use the full current. And one more at 73 Amps.
In more remote places, I'd suggest dual 40 Amp L2 stations, for better redundancy, more usability and similar install cost. 100 Amp service can support 80% of that as continuous current. I suspect but don't know for sure that the dual charger option on the eTron uses two 50 Amp J1772s to get maximum power. This would allow full speed use if both stations are free, and for two cars to charge at lower rates overnight.

That plugshare link sends me to a different address:
215 S Whitcomb Ave, Tonasket WA
But, I am reading more on this 240V, 80A haL2 system in the WA area, and it looks good:

However, I still think that the EVgo stations in Medina, OH are incorrectly labeled and are showing 2x the power output.

Yes, I was commenting on an actual high amperage charging station, and the uses of such.
