Is that the first dual installation for Nissan QCs, and available 24/7? Could it be they've actually started to listen to their customers? Nah, only in a dream.DaveinOlyWA said:Valdemar? so the two at Cal State Northridge are not associated with a dealership? Now that would be AWESOME!

They said 500 stations in 18 months and everyone cheered, me included.Computerizer said:The Nissan LEAF Facebook folks linked to this article a bit ago:
Nissan To Triple Quick-Charging Stations For Electric Cars Over 18 Months
This is probably good news for those of you that aren't on the west coast and have very few CHAdeMO options!There are now about 160 quick-charge stations, mostly on the West Coast and in Texas; Nissan hopes to add another 500 new stations over the next 18 months.

All they need to know there are 2 types of chargers installed on the property, regular/slow and fast, and if they work or not. Is this too much to ask?
OT, I haven't really kept up with this thread but I know people talked about the weather exposed 3 fans on the Nissan QCs. I looked at the one at Nissan Sunnyvale a few weeks ago and noticed that along w/2 fans under a hood (presumably not as weatherproof). I put up a few pics at https://picasaweb.google.com/105684180251177299188/NissanCHAdeMOCharger?authkey=Gv1sRgCJis0ZrH8qjH3wE#" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.
Thanks for the update, but I guess we "middle-of-the-map" drivers are SOL. Nothing across the entire center of the country is very disappointing.KJD said:CHAdeMO 3,073 Quick Chargers Deployed

Anyone want to guess how many are Nissan installs and how many are AV or Blink or whatever ?
Now, after almost 10 months of use (November 2012 install), this charger, owned and operated by Evoasis, reached the 1000th charging session, which makes it one of busiest on the West Coast.
KJD said:Yep, looks like Kansas has the same number as Utah, Big Goose Egg. :evil:
Maybe someday EV Oasis will expand outside of CA, they seem to be doing it right.

I've charged twice at the Premier Nissan QC in San Jose, and haven't had nearly the problems you report. The QC is located right at the west end of the service drive through, and both times I asked one of the service advisers for the fob, and they located it and swiped it for me. One time there was a new car sitting there, plugged in but not charging. The service person told me pull in beside it, ran down the person who had put the new car there, and gave them a lecture.CayenneSJLEAFy said:Your experience is nearly the same experience I had with Premier Nissan, and its equally just as frustrating. It's one of the reasons that I preferred using the Blink FCs in the Bay Area instead of going to a Nissan dealer for using FC. It's those multiple steps of getting a FC at a dealer--parking, going to a receptionist to ask for a FC, finding the right person that has the key fob to the FC, asking the dealer to move cars blocking the FC, moving the car to the FC, charging, and then (in my case) asking the dealer again to move cars now blocking my car (that has finished FC). All the while, the salesperson with the fob was trying to persuade me to look at other cars on the lot (and "special deals").
