I left Biloxi with a Range Charge (260 rated miles) with the Supercharger in Lake Charles (265 miles) as target. It’s frustrating that this stop is just out of reach. A mid route stop in Lafayette will permit the journey on this thin leg. I focused on Moss Motors, a BMW dealership that is friendly to EVs furnishing a Level 2 charger for public use. BMW has an EV offering of their own; the i3, an example of which is featured on the showroom floor here.

There was some uncertainty over this last chance charge option. Would their system be operational? Would it be blocked? Would they co-operate knowing that I’m driving a competitive brand?

Charging now with a flow rate of 6kW. Computing the wait at 2 1/2 hours all for the mere 50 mile extension needed. Comfy waiting in the BMW showroom though.
