Free fast charging in North Dakota
None of the free locations in North Dakota has a DC fast charger. Every one of them is Level 2 or slower.
Why so many free chargers are Tesla-only
A large share of free listings are Tesla Destination chargers: wall units that hotels, restaurants and wineries install for their customers. Many are set to accept Teslas only, and the listing says so. Those are marked Teslas only below and are not counted as usable by other EVs. A Tesla-plug charger that is not restricted can serve another EV with a Tesla-to-J1772 adapter, but we still do not count it as "works with any EV", because most drivers do not carry one.
