What drivers have written
“Good charging spot with plenty of 180kwh charger. Wide, easy spaces to charge from. I received 145kwh from my charger and was done in 13 mins. Amenities available about a 7 min walk away across the hwy.” — Sam Goh, 11 months ago
“Many chargers available, all working, and includes fast chargers.” — Howard Schein, 3 months ago
“Pretty fast, 2x bchydro chargers that have 4 slots seemingly available but only 2 charge at the same time. Also, if you haven't before used the app just scan QR code, insert Cc info...hit enter in app and THEN plug in the car. (If you try while it's plugged in welcome to 2x preauth) Works pretty good. PLEASE don't plug in and leave your car for too long cause it's not going to take long, and others need it too 馃憤 Edited: I got 34kwh out if it according to the digital receipt. Still pretty quick.” — MakinA \\ Wake, 3 years ago
