Eni squeezing fast chargers wherever they can The placement behind the gas station in a private access road should at least deter from ICEing Screensaver advertises 2 prices, but 0.65 doesn't actually apply to any public station in Switzerland 🤷🏻‍♂️ Route de Chavannes Lausanne

Electra at ibis Crissier, also full at rush hour! Anyone know if Alpitronic can handshake 2 cars at once? I plugged in seconds after the other customer authorized their charge, but it seems like AutoCharge only kicked in a minute later once the first car started charging 🤔

Crissier Tesla Supercharger, busiest station in all of Romandie, third busiest in country, averaging >200 sessions/day The only in Switzerland with this 2-by-2 setup Crazy price range* from 0.45CHF/kWh at midnight to 0.87CHF/kWh 9h-20h ensures maximum 24/7 utilization

What is this comparison in the latest RTS article? It's supposed to show the pricing range along the A1 between Lausanne-Geneva No doubt it's a mess, but: Not a single fast charger is included Half are roaming prices, a subject not brought up in the article Except Signy, unpopular destinations

Build it and they will come... Especially in Lausanne All the brand new chargers opened in the last 6 months? PACKED Migros Crissier Previously 6xAC: full Now 12xDC: full Time to build even more!

Who at Tesla Charging thought this would be a good idea? It's not going to cause any trouble... Until someone needs to avoid (out of service) or find (virtual queue) a specific charger At least there's no power split here unlike the numbering mess at Lully

ABB being ABB... Can't access the home screen, and when it finally works, there are no connectors listed!

Finally, contactless payment at Agrola Delémont! The capital city is only now getting convenient payment, when Porrentruy and Bassecourt already had it at less used locations... Other interesting things: a minimum fee (not start fee) and a penalty fee that doubles after 30min

New paint and signs at the Tüchelweiher parking in Rapperswil Now it's been made clear that you don't pay extra parking for DC, while you do for AC. The fee is built into the DC price Still a crazy price, 0.80CHF/kWh + 1.50CHF/h AC is 0.55CHF/kWh, not bad

Nice look! I assume it's just a generic skin you can purchase off the shelf, but it really stands out when all other HYC_50 in the country are just a flat color with the CPO logo 0.50CHF/kWh + 2CHF/h Didn't get full power, very slow ramp up to 33kW 🫤 Eggstrasse Frenkendorf

One of the worst locations I have visited Hidden behind Spar at Weinfelderstrasse in Amriswil Gas station/convenience store but just 50kW max, only delivered 31kW In the corner with no light Tight spaces, no paint, squeeze next to unaware customer QR only on screensaver

Has nobody ever visited the Arbon Energie fast charger? It's been open for almost a year but I was never able to find any picture or feedback online 0.65CHF/kWh Contactless installed but not working Unclear if you need to pay 1CHF for the first hour of parking

Could it be 🚨 ILLEGAL 🚨 to wait for your turn or move your car after charging? It's rare in Switzerland to pay by parking space number rather than plate number these days, but it's the case here and means that moving your car would reset the free period and skip paying 🤔

An Evpass location with parking spaces that don't suck? Did Shell accidentally employ someone competent? Don't worry, the 0.89CHF/kWh ad-hoc price is there to compensate for the wide and straight parking Tellpark in Schattdorf

Stupid setup at Baden train station Only 2 of 6 chargers have designated charging spaces, and even that is not being respected If you manage to plug in, you get punished with an ad-hoc only experience and a 2.16CHF start fee to make sure you never come again Then 0.44CHF/kWh

Good news, Electra Wädenswil seems to be getting a roof! Bad news, this causes a lot of downtime. Shell is able to install roofs in a few days, what is taking so long here? 🤔 Have not had an opportunity to stop by yet

My Geoguessr skills and charger database tell me that the picture for this used car listing is at best almost 2 years old, because the Evpass chargers at this location were replaced in July 2024! 🕵🏻‍♂️ Do you know where it is? 📝

SOCAR Fuchsberg Nord opened last week! 8xCCS max 300kW for cars 2xCCS max 400kW for trucks 0.75CHF/kWh contactless. No ad-hoc payment possible for trucks at the time of visit McDonald's and mio Only in direction Zürich

Nice, the new ABB C50 by IWB have working contactless readers! 0.64CHF/kWh (BL tariff, Aesch and Dornach) I didn't experience the full promised power. Only 35kW one time. 40kW on another. Where's the 50kW? Like Alpis, should not be amp limited with 150A cables

Don't you love it when step 4 of "charging without an internet connection" is "find a place with an internet connection"? 🤣 To be fair, the point of the sign seems to inform you that you can plug in, then start the charge once outside the underground parking. Internet is never optional

New SBB eCharge solar tariff, unique to Delémont. Charge for 0.30CHF/kWh instead of regular 0.50 between 8h and 20h This offer will apply all year, but will be shortened 9h-17h starting October Only works when activating with the Swisspass Just a shame the chargers are not under the canopy 😭

Now that's a proper gravel setup! Sportanlage Kellen in Tübach A shame one of the chargers has been out of service for well over a year according to the live data 🫤

Dear CPOs, can you please finalize the transactions that are blocking hundreds upon hundreds of francs on my debit card? Thanks Once more after testing many charging stations, I maxed out my spending with "temporary" reservations of 50, 120 and 150CHF 😭

It goes on forever 😵‍💫 Migros Füllinsdorf upgraded from 4xDC to 10xDC. The 2xAC remain

There are currently no fully operational fast chargers in Bassecourt... Tellis is still down for upgrades and now the screen is broken on the Energie360° charger 🤷🏻‍♂️ At least you can still charge using the app. Contactless also seems to still work but you're completely blind

The BFE IchTankeStrom API has now been down for 3 days. No new updates since Friday 12h38. If you visit my website that's why the live availability is frozen Why are things always failing during extended weekends? 😭 Luckily for my paid customers, I have redundant data sources

Scenic charging by EKZ in Bonstetten Didn't seem fully working, only got ~5kW and almost a month later the contactless reservation is still on my card and will probably expire. I guess I got a free slow kWh out of this 🤷🏻‍♂️

Setup by SOCAR on the Stegen rest stop doesn't feel very swiss It's extremely rare to have that much space available, usually you have to fit 8 charging spaces in half that footprint or you'll take too much away from something else 😅 You'll never see this in the mountains 🏔️

MOVE Hexentobel Still no contactless. Quite a shame that ad-hoc customers get punished with an additional 3ct/min via Intercharge Direct on top of regular 69ct/kWh credit card price

Nice Migrol-like setup by Energie360° in Felsen Parking Weinfelden Many of the new E360 stations charge you extra for ad-hoc Huge parking but the AC spaces are not reserved for charging 🤔 It's the second time I am unable to charge my Fiat at E360... 5kW for a minute then zero

Fast charging prices update In a surprise move, Shell is temporarily one of the cheapest options for the next 2 weeks. Unlike the German shenanigans, this seems to be 24/7 and even ad-hoc is reduced Tesla peak prices continue to climb, while more and more locations get cheap night prices

How do you even end up with a 161kW power limit on an Alpitronic? 🤔

Quick! Grab something in the car using app unlock! Fiat:

Interesting GOFAST parking space configuration at McDonald's Weinfelden One space is at an angle, but they managed to make every other space straight 0.70CHF/kWh 🫤

Odd "sidegrade" at Hotel Egerkingen. The 175kW MOVE chargers were replaced with 50kW. There are now 2 CCS for each charging space Is this a temporary installation while waiting on new HPCs? Contactless and rightmost chargers were not working last Monday when I visited

The cheapest AGROLA fast charger is in Schattdorf Only 0.50CHF/kWh, including with contactless Up to 320kW, buffer batteries, shop, toilets, etc Not pull-through, but still a lot of flexibility with vehicle size

Finally, I found an EVTEC charger with both the power limit indicator and the Details tab! Was needed to stay in the game with the top players 👌🏻 Not sure if that's only available on the larger touch screen for space reasons? It shouldn't be, because the elements don't overlap

Stop charge [Are you sure?] Yes [Please enter 0000] 0000 [Stopping] What exactly is the goal here? 🤔

Yesterday the roof structure and second charger were installed at Tellis Bassecourt The new charger seems to be an A400. Will this be the first 400kW charger in Canton Jura? Still waiting on the new transformer to power all this

A charger where the price changes every 5 seconds? Don't blink! Someone must have messed up the screensaver 🤦🏻‍♂️

App says: available now 🤦🏻‍♂️ Bleicheplatz Wil

GOFAST at Aldi in Sempach One of the cheapest GOFAST locations... But still 0.67CHF/kWh When Aldi is closed it's a very quick walk to Agrola, who don't have any charger here but can take advantage of both Aldi's and Migros' chargers staying open 24/7

SOCAR is building another large charging hub at Fuchberg Nord Same specs as in Kölliken: 2x400kW trucks 8x200kW cars The trucks get a canopy here! I still find it quite limited to only provide shared 200kW for cars, you are guaranteed to be charger-limited when not alone...

I read on LinkedIn that the MOVE chargers at Glarnerland will soon be upgraded, so I went there to suffer one last time Ah, the joy of being throttled at 25kW without explanation! Then I switch stalls and get the expected 70kW for my car...

Migros Wollerau, is the lamp post for the chargers, or for the massive Migros sign? 😂 In any case, it's decently lit 👍🏻 4xCCS max 200kW 0.55CHF/kWh

"We had to put the connector holder and MID reader on the other side of the fence, there was no other solution" - Typical CPO that doesn't expect anyone to actually use their chargers 🤦🏻‍♂️

Schulhausstrasse Neuenkirch ✅ Cheap electricity ❌ Broken lock

40 charging stations at the Knonaueramt rest stop in Affoltern am Albis! Can you spot them all? 16x Electra 24x Tesla open to the public Difficult to compare prices with all the apps and subscriptions... Tesla is both the most and least expensive depending on time of day

While many new chargers are added as time goes on, a number of chargers also disappear The only public charger in Hägendorf has been removed, and I can't really see why 🤷🏻‍♂️ It might cost just as much to remove it than installing new hardware if the old one failed 🤔

GOFAST have added some interesting parking space delimiters in Wettswil. Will people park correctly? 🤔 They also added cameras, with the consequence that the vertical signage is gone. They will probably re-add it along with the missing CCTV sign
