Charged at Komatsu Chademo. I love the connector, all dcfc should use this type.

After 5-10 minutes, the charging stopped with "Battery Error"; this charging station is battery backed so it can use a lighter grid feed and I think the battery was run down, as it worked ok on the return trip that evening...

DC Quick Charger is working great, they're installing a second CHAdeMO unit there too!

DC Fast Charger was repaired on Nov 16th. The connector is fragile, so don't apply any force to the lever.

Charged my Xebra from Opconnect 120v. Prius plug-in prototype charged from Shorepower 120v. Leaf charged from Shorepower J1772. Eaton DC Fast Charger still down awaiting replacement parts.

Shorepower 120 volt station repaired.

Charged Xebra on 120v from the Op-connect station. 120v receptacle on the ShorePower station is signed "down for maintenance,” so the only 120v is from the Op-connect station, which requires a user account and authorization card for access. DC Fast Charger still down.

Charged at the J1772 GE Station. The CHadeMo has a sign on it saying it is out of order.

PGE reports that the DC Quick Charger is broken again. Apparently the latch tab keeps breaking. The DC Quick Charger at the World Trade Center uses a different latch design, so use the World Trade Center garage for fast charging until further notice.

Charged Xebra on 120v from Shorepower station. Opconnect station would not charge on 120v, I think it wanted a credit card, and I wasn't going to pay when the adjacent Shorepower station is free.

The DC Quick Charger is working again, according to Portland General Electric, and has been upgraded with a longer cord in case the space is ICE'd. I haven't checked it yet, so if you use it let us know.

There have been reports on the Oregon Electric Vehicle Association mailing list that the DC Fast Charger is out of service; the J1772 stations on Electric Avenue should still be working. Use the World Trade Center for your fast charging needs until further notice.

Charged Successfully on 120v from the Opconnect station. At least three Leafs used the DC quick charger in the time I was there, so it's being well used.

Love the newer style chademo connector on the Eaton station here, much easier to use than the older style in the WTC parking garage...

Opening ceremony today, all spaces in use and charging. Charged my Xebra from the 120volt outlet in the bike racks.
