Public charging

My wife & I have been lucky enough to do a number of road trips since our Tesla Model 3 arrived in November last year. Early this year we did around 2,500km using the NRMA chargers only. It certainly impresses ICE drivers when we say ... cost of fuel for the trip ... $0. Thanks so much to NRMA

What is happening with the chargers at Bourke and Brewarrina. They have been "coming soon" or "under repair" in Plugshare for many months now?

I own a Tesla Model 3, other than at home i have only used the Tesla charging stations. I am wondering if all other EV's have the same charging port, and if not how is this managed at the charging stations? What is the maximum charge rate at non-Tesla charging stations

I have encountered failed charging several times at the NRMA chargers. The car has been left to charge and owner has gone away but there is a charging error and the car is not charging, so when the owner comes back the car still needs charging. Most common reason is the person forgot to press

If you are going to leave your car while it is charging, it's important to note when it is going to finish, and get back there in time. However, you might end up being delayed. My vehicle has the facility to set the cable to unlock once charging is finished, even if the car remains locked. I set thi

When we all drove ICE cars it was very easy when you filled up to check your tyres and clean your windscreen. Most public EV charging stations (Ampol excepted) have no such facilities. Is this an oversight? Should we advocate for air and water to be available near EV chargers? What's the etiquette f
