Take a look at Plugshare.com and use the "SAE Combo DCFC" filter under "More Options" on the legend dialog.TDINutz said:I am very close to perhaps getting into an e-Golf, and was wondering, as a total Newbie, areas that I can fast charge at in and around the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles area, the closer to Mission Hills, the better. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If you cannot be guaranteed a place to plug in every night at home or every day at work, I don't recommend getting one. Grubbing for electrons at public chargers on a regular basis is really a drag. If you have a convenient place to charge every day, then fast chargers near your home don't matter. It's the ones that are 50-100 miles away from home in the directions that you generally travel that matter the most. The e-Golf is not a long distance car. Even with perfectly ideal placement and availability of fast chargers along your route, doing a 30 minute stop every 75 miles on a 400 mile trip would be a drag. However, a trip from North LA County to San Diego. No problem. Just stop once at the Shops at Mission Viejo, grab a bite to eat at the mall, then drive the rest of the way to San Diego. One fast charge, no problem.
TDINutz said:And one day, I'd like to have the option to spend an overnight in Lone Pine, quick charge in Bishop, and make the 3000 foot climb up to Mammoth Lakes. Doable in a Tesla, but the reach from Mojave to Lone Pine... might be a 55 mph cruise to keep it in range. Hit an RV park like Boulder Creek RV park with a portable 4-50 plug in a juice box, or Clipper Creek 40 amp unit.
