I like the 30 minute turn off feature. It prevents the local small battery "charger lice"  from hogging a charger and making interstate and intercity travel much more inconvenient for people who are replacing their ICE vehicles with BEVs. A 30 minute wait is already weird enough. Turning it into a 90 minute wait because someone uses the charger for an hour means BEVs have even less of a chance of catching on.


My "charger lice" comment is a bit of a joke. But I know i3 "locals" who live in apartments and tie up the two local EVGo chargers making it harder for people from other parts of Los Angeles from charging when they are coming from LONG distances and need to head up the Grapevine. The 30 minute limit keeps things "reasonable" when you have 4 or 5 BEVS literally waiting in line.
