    Supercharger - Green River, UT

    They are accessed from the outside of the building. I've only been there twice and didn't try them when the museum was closed.

    Supercharger - Kalispell, MT (under construction Apr 2024, 8 V4 stalls)

    We only see 4 stalls in the picture. If it's an 8 stall location perhaps the others will be configured differently?

    Is Elon thinking of REHIRING some of the fired SuperCharging folks

    Entire Supercharging Team Fired?

    Agree. There will be a lag but what you don't see since the announcement are newly permitted sites (a couple of "plan" entries are there). I suspect we will see a significant slowdown in all types of entries over the next few months.

    tracking automaker nacs adoption in NA

    My guess is NACS will be the standard going forward regardless of the pace of supercharger network expansion, but I dont know if any of the makes that decided to adopt it would save any money by reversing course. Luckily its now an open standard.

    Entire Supercharging Team Fired?

    When our model Y goes out of warranty later this year we were planning to replace it with a new one but were considering other EVs as well. Now all options including gas have to be back on the table. The only option I wont consider is another Tesla as long as Musk is running the show.

    Checking all the ones we regularly use on I94 looks like they are all 38 cents/kWh.

    Thoughts on Superchargers After a 2300 mile trip

    Sounds like some bad luck for you on that trip. There are some states where SC coverage is still sparse so I always carry a CCS adapter, Wyoming is one (also the Dakotas, Montana). I've also encountered a non-functional pedestal on occasion, but it's pretty rare especially compared to CCS chargers.

    The standard for underserved sure has come a long way. Longest gap is 93 miles.

    Supercharger - Lincoln, NE - West O Street

    Charged there twice last month got max speed both times. Since you had the same issue in Des Moines I'd say it's not an issue with the superchargers.

    2024 Eclipse Roadtrip Supercharger Experiences?

    My wife and I drove from Minneapolis to Indianapolis on Sunday and returned on Tuesday. We stopped at Black River Falls, Lake Delton, Rockford, Normal, Urbana and Zionville on the way down (hotel was less than a mile from the Zionville location). We got the last open spot at Lake Delton but...

    Supercharger - Sterling, CO

    Excellent, this will be 137 from N Platte and 103 from Brighton, allowing skipping of the V2 at Ogallala.

    Wiki Largest gaps between Superchargers on US Interstates

    Using the usual 10 mile max diversion US2 from Grand Forks ND SC to Spokane WA SC is 1154 miles. If there's one longer than that I can't image where. There are permit locations in Minot ND and Kalispell MT that will cut that number down significantly if and when they open.

    Out of Spec doing a Cybertruck vs. R1T vs. Lightning vs. Silverado EV cross country race. Who wins?

    My guess is they will finish several hours behind. It doesn't help that the Ford team seems to be more interested in what fast food options are available near the chargers than maximizing efficiency. They do talk about how comfortable it is though.

    Out of Spec doing a Cybertruck vs. R1T vs. Lightning vs. Silverado EV cross country race. Who wins?

    Out of spec and bearded tesla guy have both released part 2 on youtube but it's not the last segment for either. At the moment the Cybertruck is slightly ahead of the Silverado and the Rivian is not far behind. The F150 can't keep up. The interesting part is the Tesla guys have been able to use...

    Supercharger - West Seneca, NY

    They are v4 pedestals but can anyone tell if the charger cabinet is different at all? There's a site in Oregon with v4 pedestals that has been live since November.

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    Energy delivered does not include losses? Is there a source of info for that part? Not claiming it’s wrong just curious.

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    All true but aren’t you charged for energy delivered by the charger not how much ends up in the battery?

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    $0.55/kWh would be very high for the Midwest but I don't think we know how many kWh were actually delivered. It appears the app is mistakenly reporting minutes billed instead of kWh delivered.

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    Colder temps do reduce range and higher speed reduces it also. Getting 2/3 rated range driving I94 at the speed limit in 45 degrees sounds about right. Fortunately there are now several superchargers between Madison and the Twin cities so it’s an easy route even when it’s much colder.

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    I went back and pulled up a session there from a couple months ago and it is similarly off. I remember we added 30% there though which would be about 21 kWh not the 12 the session report lists. OP I think the energy delivered numbers are just wrong. In each case its reporting the total # of...

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    Look at his session in Menomonie. 4 minutes at a rate that is supposed to be charged when the charging speed is between 100 and 180 kW. 4 minutes in this range would be between 6 2/3 and 12 kWh, but the session details says he only got 4 kWh.

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    That looks wrong to me too. If I'm doing the math right (no guarantees there) there's no way the total power delivered should be less than 34 kWh.

    Supercharger - Norfolk, NE

    Happy to see this one pop up, 78 mi from Sioux City SC and 107 from Grand Island SC will make the more direct route from the Western Twin Cities burbs to Colorado a bit easier. I'm not a fan of either Lincoln SC location.

    Worst (and Best) superchargers (Mammoth, CA is awful)

    (and best) is in the thread title so….. All the V3s at the Indiana and Ohio turnpike service plazas. Can’t get faster on/off than rest areas and you were going to stop there anyway. These are as fast and convenient as you can get.

    Bozeman, MT Supercharger

    Four stall location is effectively 3 stalls when the lot is plowed like this. Probably not a big deal now with Belgrade open.

    How much super charging is considered too much for good battery health

    Agreed the older Lincoln location is kind of like Grand Junction. It can easily take more than 5 mins to get there from the I80 exit if you're unlucky with traffic (I haven't been to the new one yet). Madison and Eau Claire WI, Rockford and Rolling Meadows IL, Rotterdam and Guilderland NY are...

    How much super charging is considered too much for good battery health

    Do what makes you comfortable, but you are costing yourself time. After several long road trips I use this easy strategy. If the next SC I plan to stop at is 100 miles away I aim to arrive at 10%. If it's 150 miles, aim for 15%, etc. If something comes up like unexpected wind or temperature...

    Electrify America Fast Chargers - Huh?

    In general yes they are too expensive to use other than as a backup however just like Tesla supercharging prices they do vary.
