America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Many private businesses in my area are putting in plugs for their customers to use......breweries, restaurants, etc. Check out plugshare.com for a very comprehensive map of charging options. But as Lufkin pointed out, options are limited in some areas. Happy trapping! ScottW Last edited by ScottW; 01/14/21 05:35 PM.
