<font face="Comic Sans MS">I hadn't heard of either connector
before. I just did a search for EV charging station with my zip
code. There are a few around, but I don't know if they are quick
charge stations. It seems some bizness are using the stations to
get you to shop with them. You can have a nice meal in 20
minutes. Do any places charge for a charge?<br>

What about it? It works. My Leaf has both a J1772 connector and a
CHAdeMO connector up front. There are even a fair number of CHAdeMO
chargers around though they're nowhere near as popular as J1772 EVSE.
The connector is disturbingly large; it's like plugging in a can of
Coke. I'll admit to backing away a little bit the first time I saw
"392 volts 106 amps" on the display...
One thing that scares me just a little bit - J1772 is bog simple and
has a dumb protocol, but the CHAdeMO connector includes lines to talk
directly to your CANbus. Plugging one's car into random CANbus
connectors strikes me as a lousy idea.
