Another newby charging question: 2 types of fast chargers
Anyone know why there are 2 different types of fast chargers (or more?)? I think the i3 can only use 1 type.
Is this like a VHS and Beta thing? where eventually 1 will win out and the other will collect dust?

The CCS port is a more elegant and more efficient design compared to CHAdeMO.
There are CCS stations in cities across the Midwest. In fact, there's a BMWNA DC Combo station about 20 miles from Wheaton, in Schaumburg. See http://api.plugshare.com/view/location/39203. plugshare.com is an asset for EV drivers. |

Don't think any new cars are Chademo anymore, in the USA.
