50 AMP Tents
Took a stroll around my loop in a state park campground and observed some strange behaviour. The loop is less than 30% full with a mix of tent sites, 30 AMP and a much smaller selection of 50 AMP sit...

You'll most likely see more of the Tesla's and such using campgrounds to charge as the 50 amp is much quicker. I have read a few blogs that even suggest you pull your E/C into and empty site and hook up the charge cord and see if you can get done before anyone "notices". LOL, I thought that was called stealing ? Of course this all comes from the special group that believes the Lithium and Cobolt mining to make their batteries is saving the Earth.
Yah. I would say that is extremely uncommon. Campground owners are putting their campgrounds on plug share because it is a revenue stream. Other than camping overnight or some kind of charge emergency where there was an unplanned charge station outage I doubt many EV drivers would waste their time charging at a campground. That’s taking a 20 minute job and turning it into a 12 hour job.
Just sayin.
