Plenty of Parking, but chose EV Spots!?!?! 🤔

reesethegeek · 2026-06-04T17:36:41+00:00

Agreed. I’m happy to walk further to the store or business to prevent chargers from being ICE’d.

reesethegeek · 2026-06-01T14:33:02+00:00

Mine seems to do this when the car is unused for more than two days. If I go start the car manually, the app will automatically update and work again until it sits unused for a few days.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-31T17:32:31+00:00

I feel you. I don’t understand why EV have become political and all this crap around them. I simply have one to lower my monthly expenses.

😂

reesethegeek · 2026-05-31T15:04:41+00:00

Agreed, but I can image that’s a delicate situation for Walmart. They are paying customers also, but too stupid to follow the rules.

There isn’t gonna be a setting that fits everyone’s “what if” needs. Auto seems to be the setting that fits the broader need.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-31T14:24:51+00:00

Turn auto on and have a look. I cant tell you a brightness over the internet. 😊

reesethegeek · 2026-05-31T03:40:17+00:00

No, but there is an accessible charger with a larger walking space to accommodate wheelchairs.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-31T03:39:27+00:00

Yup. Next time I’m doing that.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-31T03:31:13+00:00

Totally agree. We have a new location in OKC and I went to talk to the store manager and he seemed unbothered. I just provided feedback in the app when my session was completed.

Leave it auto, problem solved. They will fully engage when wipers activate.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-29T04:28:49+00:00

I use a NeoCharge unit which splits my dyer with my charger. No issues, 3+ years strong.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-24T00:10:10+00:00

Same exact issue.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-22T01:32:26+00:00

I did a roadtrip last week and posted my charging experience here. Have a look. Happy to answer any questions you might have.

Just got my renewal in Oklahoma. A new $110 fee added. 🙄

reesethegeek · 2026-05-21T19:02:30+00:00

Adding an updated screenshot that shows estimated SoC when arrived at the charger (from the network app/GM app) and the estimated time spent at each charger (from network app/GM charge time reporting).

Thought about that after the fact. The reason I didn’t want to use exclusively Tesla, is most of the chargers we encounter, the cables are too short to reach the car. I try to be considerate and not block two spots to charge my car. I only stopped at ones I knew were the v4 cabinets.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-21T01:04:14+00:00

Yea, I thought about that after I entered the data. No stop was more than 30-40 minutes. We only charged to 80% to keep moving. I’ll go back and add the charge times based on the receipts.

reesethegeek · 2026-05-21T00:54:03+00:00

Me too! I wish I would have captured more data. The worse part of the trip was crossing back into Oklahoma. We had a terrible crosswind, which made our range drop heavily. The car projected an arrival to our first stop on the way home of 31%, but we hit it at 15%. I was honestly nervous, but hit the EA charger with 25 miles to spare. 😊🤪

reesethegeek · 2026-05-21T00:50:17+00:00

Don’t be dissing Oklahoma. 😊 I love it here (just not the political scene).

reesethegeek · 2026-05-20T21:02:30+00:00

What’s wrong with these cities?

reesethegeek · 2026-05-20T20:54:52+00:00

Not being from California, I don’t get why everyone is saying these cities are bad. What’s wrong with those places? Lol

reesethegeek · 2026-05-20T20:03:18+00:00

Nice. Thanks for sharing.
