I've spent time on the street (never been homeless, but been "out of a home" before...long story), and I found that if you just stop and use your eyes, there are AC outlets EVERYWHERE that anybody on the street can use.

Heck, if you don't smell that bad, you can walk into a bookstore and recharge off of any outlet near a bookshelf while you catch up on some reading. McDonald drive-thru's also have exposed outlets (at least here they do). Warehouses, factories, business parks...they all have exterior outlets. Just don't try to mill around a residential area looking for free AC or you'll wind up with a paranoid housewife calling the cops on you.

Word to my crew on the streets ya'll.
