In Chicago area for anyone wondering using the Walmart charging network. This is about ~13% capacity, wasn't really low started charging at about 70%.

That is quite expensive.

I would encounter a rate like that charging at >200 kW maybe on an interstate or at our high end mall, but not a Walmart.

Of course, I mostly charge at work for free or home for $0.15/kWh.
