I have the mobile charger in my trunk, and a wall charger at home. I don't use the mobile charger much, but it is super handy to have for trips. I recommend getting both the NEMA 10-30 and 14-30 adapters for it, since those are the two plugs you will find for cloths dryers. The 14-50 is of more limited use for me, but you might want it if you frequent camp grounds. Always road trip with the J1772 adapter, either take the one you have or buy another to keep in the car. Unless you have poor Supercharger coverage (or they are frequently overcrowded) in your travel areas, don't bother with the CCS adapter.
Why the disqualifier? That's a massive network that also happens to be where Superchargers aren't. It would be like saying "where can I find a windshield squeegee other than gas stations?" when gas stations are ubiquitous and have them. RV parks & camp grounds are dotted all over the country and, in our experience, can be some of the most fun and cheapest stops. When traveling in years past, we easily used our 14-50 adapters 2nd most only to Supercharging. As Supercharger #'s increase this will be less and less the case but it also makes for the best adapter option for all types of adapters. Most of my homemade adapters use a 14-50 somehow.Where would you find 14-50 receptacles while on the road other than RV campgrounds?
Do the little mom and pop hotels have issues with you charging your car? Safety cones, nice touch.
Yes--this.My understanding is if I am traveling between metropolitan cities I should be fine with SC network coverage?
I wish this was true. I am sure it is largely true for driving on the interstates between metropolitan areas, however, this still isn't true for rural areas or trips into the National Parks in the west. In National parks and surrounding areas, the charging infrastructure is more likely to be J1772 than anything else.Yes--this.
I am seeing a ton of people recommending you to get one because "it might come in handy". Well, that is different from "necessary". Sure, there might be some possible chance to plug into an outlet somewhere, and that might be useful, but as long as you don't mind just taking the stops at Superchargers, then you really don't need that cord for traveling. This isn't 10 years ago anymore.
...which was the exact caveat spelled out in the original post that I was specifically responding to and affirming as the use case:I wish this was true. I am sure it is largely true for driving on the interstates between metropolitan areas, however, this still isn't true for rural areas or trips into the National Parks in the west.
