Kerri Nissan in Florence has another and Nissan with Clean Fuels Ohio gave Cincinnati five dual ChaDeMo/CSS units. The Zoo, Cinci State, Xavier, Findley Market and UC have the five others. AAA has two Level II units by their office on Central Ave. Level II units at the Dunnhumby, 580 garage on Walnut, at the Hilton parking are also online. Of course, Columbus has its own share of units installed and the Tanger Shopping Mall on I-71 by exit 65 or so also dedicated two units a few weeks ago. Thanks to Ray Cardona.
