My wife & I have done a few road trips in our Tesla now. We bring our two small dogs, so we would be stopping every couple hours for 15-20 minute breaks anyway to let them walk around a bit & pee.
The last trip we took just last month we stayed in 3 different AirBnBs. The first one had a free to use level 2 charger in its garage. The second one was across the street from a municipal lot with free level 2 chargers. The third one was the only one that required our use of SuperChargers every few days. So 2/3 of our trip we had free charging.
Airbnb appears to be encouraging renters to install EV chargers if they can. It’s a nice perk for those of us looking for them.
My parents have an AirBnB and I’VE been encouraging them to add one, there’s not a high-speed charger in the whole town outside of a casino parking lot. Could be a big draw for EV owners to have home charging.
Last time I went I made sure to arrive at 60% charge and that let me get by on 120v for the week.
Definitely keep encouraging them. It’s something we always look for these days. You might even check if their state and/or electric utility offers any incentives for installing one.
