My trip home is a well trodden path for me and the 3rd EV return.
I did my usual stop on Powerdot in Chaves on Miio. Apparently plug & charge enabled but I didn't have time to set it up. It's only 100 miles into my trip but due to the 1000m climb via many ups & downs, I need it.
The next stage into Spain goes above 1500m, so another early charge and a good cafe for morning snacks. These are old 50kw Easychargers now Zunder but when I arrived there was some action! A gang of workers were preparing a new unit to drop onto the new pad in between them and a higher powered plug & charge unit too. These older units still require the app or RFID to activate.
To avoid the Palencia charging trouble spot I tried out a new set of Zunder units next, again early but very quick, just time enough to use the facilities as Paddington would say.
After here it's the long drive across the high plains, deserted and often used to film Westerns or Mexican locations. Run down villages with mud structures abound amidst a thriving farming area.
Our next Zunder units were also the old Easycharger ones. Sadly one was broken & the other slow. I had to use the 22kw T2 until the 50kw unit became free to give me enough charge to get over the 1000m+ summit of the A67 north and to a modern Zunder plug & play unit. before going to the ferry.
Back in blighty, I was able to use the new Osprey hub at Salmons Leap. Nice little farm shop with a cafe. It claimed to be the best farm shop in the UK, it wasn't. As nice as it is, its a cafe selling a few local product.
Really nice slim units though! Only issue was I couldn't use the app as I couldn't find my charger on it anywhere so hence I used my Electroverse card instead.
Overall a great trip with minimal charging issues.
Maybe next I'll do the figures?
