Transiting a dark zone. The last stop was a fast DC charger in North Carolina but the only energy option from there until Atlanta are Level 2 chargers. These are scattered about many communities and work well for adding a few miles to an EV for travel that is local. A J1772 Level 2 charger outputs at 6 kW per hour. At that rate it will take 10+ hours to achieve a full state. This compares to only 75 minutes at the fast charger back in NC.

The South Carolina hotel I’ve chosen features 2 charge stations in their parking garage. I will explore their historic district on foot, have supper, and rest up for tomorrow’s journey continuation. The vehicle is plugged in and will be ready again by early morning.
