I have a Tesla, no home charging, and I can't underscore how much of a non-issue it is. I charge once or twice a week at a shopping plaza I'd be visiting anyway.
When I roadtrip (I regularly do 150-250 mile road trips around New England), I'm usually stopping at a supercharger within a mile of the highway at a location equivalent to one I would have stopped anyway. Most times I only need to charge for 20 minutes to finish my trip with plenty of range to spare. I would have stopped at some point anyway so it's adding 5-15 minutes max on a 3 hour trip.
Obviously location and situation dependent, but for me it couldn't be any less of an issue.
