As it is, the options seem very limited (many of the QCs in SF are perennially down, unavailable, plus a lot of them are closed at night). Right now the only way I can drive to SF without much anxiety or inconvenience is if the destination I'm going to happens to be near a parking garage that has L2 chargers and is open in the evenings (many garages seem to close early evening), and those garages (concentrated around Union Square/FiDi) are not in the parts of town I usually go to.
I often drive from Silicon Valley (Cupertino) to SF using I-280. There is a QC at Daly City (eVgo), free L2 at Stonestown Galleria and many L2 (Chargepoint) at Lake Merced apts. There are other L2s in the west side of the city. I don't know where you typically go in the city, but I think there are a lot of charging stations in and near the city. There are some LEAFers from the San Jose area who drive to SF and use chargers at public paid garages. However, further south of SF on I-280, its close to a desert for chargers. So please give us an example of where you go that is not a convenient location to charge.
