So far started with 100% 330 mile journey
100 miles in, stopped at Cherwell Valley, Electric Highway, had breakfast and charged to 97% upon return, Leaf driver was waiting to charge so promptly left. The charge cost £10.50

Next scheduled charge was Trowell services, 2 x Ecotricity chargers, one busy one broken so dr

Now at North of Chesterfield off M1 at local services, 2 x Instavolts in use but 2 x Osprey chargers available so currently on that @ 40pp kw/h

142 miles to go, 155 on the GOM

Going to stop and do one more charge nearer Newcastle. ?
 
£10.50 seems expensive - is it? I've no experience with rapid charging (yet).

There is an Instavolt charger at Bannantynes in Durham just off the A1 that might be useful.
