I'm planning on doing this. I'd like to get several male plugs, both 120V and 240V, and be able to change amps on an EVSE (charging cord) in accordance with common electric circuits and circuit breakers (12, 15, 24, 30amps). I'm looking at getting a Zen EVSE for doing this.

Still, I need to know for sure where I can and can't charge before taking off away from home. PlugShare does mention some places that have 240V 14-50 outlets, but that still doesn't put a place to charge in every location. And many, if not all RV parks here are seasonal, closing up during the off season.
