Yeah. I on another fairly long (450mi) trip right now (I drive a lot). There seems to be a 20-30% overhead compared to making gas stops. It's all in the the timing. You really want to balance number of stops with battery percentage. As you charge the battery past 65-75% the charge rate drops rapidly. Theoretically you would never be above 60% and below 10%. That 10% is in case you need to divert to a level 2 charger or a power outage. A better route planner is pretty good at this but not perfect. It also sometimes plans fairly inefficient routes. The road trip in this is really all about strategy. Plan each day of driving the night before. Food stop at a charger so you don't lose time, quicker stops frequently, etc. I personally never go longer than 2hours or so between chargers. I try to hit as many as possible after the first one (since the first stop will likely be after you left your house or somewhere you can get a full charge). In the end, I don't lament not getting the 100D v the 75D. The longer battery life would be nice but until they can hold 400+ miles on a charge, you'll probably have to stop every 1.5 to 2 hours for 30min.
