Any more driving than that is heading to Seattle to visit family, but DCFC is everywhere along I5. |
Is that at a dealership by your work or do you work at that dealership? Some dealerships don't allow public charging, or only allow an older Lv2 charger to the public and not their DCFC, even though it's on the charging map within the apps. You'll need to read the comments on the specific charger to know.
But if it's the dealership you work at, and the managers are cool with it, then you won't need a charger at home. Either DCFC/Lv2 will do just fine if you're there 5 days a week - whether it be frequent top ups or longer charges every couple of days are up to how you want to maintain your battery and what SOC you are at that day.
