Did my first road trip MCO-SRQ…
Okay so i only observed using a max of 213kW but using a 50kW DC charger is so slow to me now.
I’ve only seen them at select Wawa’s but be on the lookout as they are expanding them. This was from around ~50% SOC to 82%. Note I started the charge at 80% max and then midway changed it to 100% which I think confused things and slowed things down too early.

I charged in Bradenton. Unfortunately the only 350 station in Orlando Metro is in Daytona right now.
I like the current concept. They charge ~$.35/min. Wawa wants you to charge for 15 min, grab a drink and leave.

Congrats on the truck!
In case you may have missed them -
there are several 150-350kW Electrify America stations between Orlando and Sarasota.
One at US 27 @ I-4 at Love's and also at I-75 @ US 301 in Ellenton

Indeed you are correct. That said, I just looked at the pricing and is it really $.43kwh?!?

yes $0.43

IF you plan on using it once a month or more, you can join EA as a member for $4.00 per month. That drops the rate to $0.31.

Regarding EA, is there any way to sign up for the "free plan" and not have it automatically add money to the account?

This has to be the stupidest behavior ever—EA is a like a gas station, not a gaming console. I don't need to have money "preloaded" onto the account, they can charge my card the second I finish charging the car.

No need to sign up, Just tap or swipe at the charger. You'll be logged in as a guest.

FPL has some chargers on the Turnpike that deliver up to 350…haven’t seen over 200 in the truck though at 21% SoC and battery preconditioned.

FPL has 350kw chargers at the Turnpike service center in Port St. Lucie, interfaced with the FPL EVolution app. I just signed up for the FPL home charger last week and downloaded the app. I was at the service center on the Turnpike Friday charging my tesla and the FPL chargers are right next to the Tesla supercharger. I tried to fire up one of the FPL chargers just to try it out, but I had no cell coverage and no available wifi and the app froze up on me. I had 15 minutes to kill so I rebooted the app and my phone and couldn't get it to work. That would really be unfortunate had I been in a non-Tesla and needed the charge, but maybe that was just an anomaly or a bad day for Verizon 5G...

FPL’s chargers have been great though they have some with a new ChargePoint partnership and must charge through CP app and it’s slow (62.5kw). New one in Bradenton just opened.
