User Reviews of PlugShare:

Last month's round trip between east coast and Kansas was our first in a new Model Y, Insome areas like S Missouri good charging stations are scarce or nonexistent. Nobodywants to end up running out of juice and learn there's no charging in range ahead-andbacktracking is required. We carried cables and converters for all charger types, butnever had to use anything but superchargers and lower power (and free) Teslaconnections at several motels. Being able to map out entire 1500 mile northern andsouthern routes, planning for adequate charging and our overnight stops was pretty easyand confidence building. It took only an hour or so the evening before each of our 1500mile legs. Then we were free to enjoy the drive and scenery with no anxiety. PlugShare isa very nice complement to Tesla's on board navigation to one's next charge station.

used this for a trip from LA to san fran. i'd say the best way to use plugshare is to opengoogle maps first and figure out in which city you want to make a stop, then go inplugshare and search that city. the trip planner is a good idea but needs work. you can'tselect multiple stops with the trip planner, and after you input your destination, ahundred chargers populate the map, covering all the names of cities and making it toodifficult to figure out where to stop. what it should do is plan the stops for you, based onthe distance your car can achieve, charger compatibility with your vehicle, max kw, hoursof travel, and likelihood of open chargers upon arrival. but overall, i'm glad i stumbledacross this. saw someone mention it on a forum.

Used this app and the great web site to plan a trip from San Jose CA to Bellingham WAon a Harley-Davidson LiveWire. The elevation display really help assessing where moreenergy might be used beyond the distance. The plug available ratings have, so far, beencorrect Thanks for all the hard work on these tools! **** added The Rivian only chargesshouldn't be included until the "Rivian only", like the "Tesla only", filter can be added. Thismakes the trip planner less useful and easy to select a charger that you won't be allowedto use. If I didn't triple check and catch this I would have been stuck without an option.On the plus side Rivian owners shouldn't have any issuesI'm still giving PlugShare3 starssince the app was the best way to confirm the route adjustment. Without the Rivianissues easily 5/5 stars.
