I've received and signed up for the "local" Leaf test drive, in slightly less
than a month. It's about fifty miles to the demo site and that means about
fifty miles to get back. In our RAV4EV, I don't want to push the pack that far
in a single charge and would like to be able to charge at the site of the demo
drives. I managed to find the online chat feature associated with the vehicle
reservation system and Erica accepted my reservation number.
She was not particularly helpful, in that all she provided was a list of
charger locator web sites. There is a purportedly public site about fifteen
miles from the demo site, in the wrong direction, but that's still quite a long
distance away from the site. The demo is taking place on the University of
Central Florida campus, but there's no clearly defined charging facilities at
that location. At least, there are none that are obvious on charging locator
web sites.
I did note to Erica that I had a J1772 adapter for my charger, although I
suspect such information was meaningless at such a basic level of support.
It's also pretty clear to me that there would be no official approval for such
a thing, via the 'net or even perhaps via telephone.
Does anyone here have information that would enable me to contact someone
directly involved in the Leaf demo program to see if I can weasel my way into
being able to charge on-site while doing the demo stuff?
Any alternatives are welcomed, as well. Alternatives that involve burning dead
dinosaurs are contra-indicated.
