Have you used apps like ZapMap and Plugshare? They provide this.
Well, if you don't want individual charger stats, there are surveys like this:
www.autoexpress.co.uk
What would be a good idea, is to use the list tsedge posted and use the filters in Zap-Map to select the best networks.
I do 98% of my charging at home so that I can stay in control and avoid all these problems reported about public charger problems and non availability over vast swathes of countryside. Especially on my frequent commutes between Auchmithy and Melon Udrigle.
With BP Pulse , at least around my way , you have to authorise the charge before it will release the cable and plug in . Never had any problems with it on my 5 . If you use the BP Pulse often it may be better to to become a member and get an RFID as I did . It saves about 16p a Kw so it all depends how many electrons you use a month before you break even
If it's not financially worth it to you, fair enough. But before I took up a BP membership I used to sign in as a guest without a problem. The cable wouldn't release until I'd produced my card, after which you select CCS, Chademo or 22Kw, plug in, and away yoo go . Maybe there's an issue with the 4 and not the 5?
Often, card authorisation failure happens because there's a limit to how many times a card can be used contactless before you have to enter your PIN again.
In the days before hi-vis and hard hats , working on various building sites, one of the most avoided jobs was the daily start up of the evil, cold hearted malicious dumper truck. Approaching the starter handle all work stopped, as a broken wrist was considered high entertainment for the onlookers. You would hope your "mate" on the decompressor was in an agreeable mood as you started cranking. Being lucky meant a lung full of black filthy exhaust, unlucky, the aforementioned wrist, whacked shin and a banged head on the raised engine cover, and the cheers and unsympathetic heckles of your fellow workmates. At least no YT. I have not yet heard of an EV dumper truck so does this still go on today? Or does today's pampered youth have at least electric starts for their machines? If there was an EV dumper truck would it need a large portable diesel generator to charge it up? Something else which had a starting handle, so still some hope for fun and games there then. Normally dumper trucks are not road legal so going to the nearest public charger is out. I guess each epoch has its blessings and problems if not all in equal measure.
Ahh the memories, the bruises what fun we had.
Yes and for those who don't know: with some banks this is configurable and can be changed and with Face/Thumbprint ID it is like always putting the PIN in so the limits are bypassed.
I think you had it easy. My mother-in-law was a radiographer, starting in the late 1940s. An electric shock flung her to the other side of the room, much to the amusement of the consultant.A bit before my time, but as a student radiographer, I was told that in A+E X-Ray Dept, you could tell if it was a cold morning without going outside, because there would be a row of patients holding their wrists.
