When traveling on a long road trip, here is what I do. I charge to 100% right before I'm about to leave the house (leaving the battery charged at 100% overnight is not good for the battery so you want to leave the house as soon as possible). Then, I stop to charge when I'm down to around 20%...

With such a large site, I wish Tesla would build a cafe like the large supercharger that they built at Kettleman City in California.

Well, we might have to wait awhile for this site. https://www.mypanhandle.com/news/local-news/holmes-county/holmes-county-commissioners-concerned-about-busy-bee-contract/

Sounds like this one is still in the works. https://holmescounty.news/top-stories/2023/07/20/the-buzz-busy-bee-still-set-to-open-in-bonifay/

Teslarati has a story out today indicating that Turkey has now issued Tesla and others licenses to operate in Turkey. https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-wins-license-supercharger-turkey/

The FL panhandle (a/k/a the "Redneck Riviera") has always had a large influx of tourists from the southeast states, so travelling there requires a lot of superchargers, but I'm with you. I don't seem to have any issues getting there. My issue, at least in the past, has been charging while on...

Sounds like Busy Bee is going to have a supercharger. https://www.pr.com/press-release/877028

I haven’t tried it yet but the Tesla app is showing all chargers are running now ( though Buc’ees parking lot is always full. Hope there won’t be a lot of icing here)

www.Supercharge.info website is saying that this location is up and running. And Tesla is showing the site as active - St. Augustine, FL - World Commerce Pkwy | Tesla

I like the fact that they raised the cabinet - I'm guessing as a precaution for any future storm surge.

went by last weekend. No change since July photos.

Looks like some initial construction may have begun.

I was there yesterday. I did not see any progress.

Nice find. Looks like it is part of another Wawa location.

Interesting. I'm wondering if time of day makes a difference. I know that California now has variable rates based upon time of day and weekends, but I did not see anything about this for our area. My charging was somewhere between 8-9am. I'm wondering if that was a factor.

On 7/22/21, I'm showing that I received 13kWh at $0.23/kWh, but the invoice gives a little more detail. The invoice shows the unit price as being 0.214 (I'm assuming this is the price per kWh), the Quantity is shown as 13 (which is the kWh I received) then a 7.5% tax. So, my subtotal was $2.78...

I thought it wasn’t charging my credit car either while I was at the SC, but when I got home, I saw that tesla did charge my credit card.

Looks we have power at this site now. It’s not showing up on the navigation screen but is energized.

The new meter is in but still no power to the pedestals.

No imminent news for this location but in this news story for the Panama City Beach Busy Bee, the CEO of Busy Bee, Elizabeth Waring, again confirms Superchargers for the future St. Augustine Busy Bee. Panama City Beach gets Tesla supercharging station

Larry, I was looking at the link you posted, and under the Construction Keynotes and Legend Page, number 8 caught my eye because it says that there will be 4 ChargePoint Level 2 chargers adjacent to the Superchargers. I haven’t seen this before. I wasn’t sure if Tesla was installing those...

Any updates on this charger?

I know that in the past Elon has cautioned against continuous Supercharger use, but there have also been multiple accounts from a company called Tesloop that has run hundreds of thousands of miles in their taxi service from LA to Vegas where they exclusively use Superchargers with low...

Does anyone know how Supercharge.info got the number of stalls and the kW power of the chargers at this location? I searched for the permit and any other relevant information on the county’s website but could not find that info.

Busy Bee posted a video of the interior of the new store on both their Twitter and Facebook pages last night and are indicating that the store is opening today. https://twitter.com/shopthebusybee/status/1278390623163293696?s=21

Tesla Florida Facebook page showing that this Supercharger is up and running.

Larry, I met her by chance at the dentist office when I took my daughter there. I mentioned to the dentist that we were headed to Panama City Beach, and that was when she overheard our conversation and that led to her telling me that they were opening the Busy Bee there.

Isn’t it easier to use PlugShare? They seem to have a much more comprehensive list of sites.

Well, the Busy Bee looks really nice but not quite ready for an opening this week (the store and gas pumps). It should be soon though. Couldn’t see any construction for the superchargers just yet.

Also wanted to note that the same lady who told me about the Panama City Beach site also mentioned that they were putting in superchargers at the Busy Bee in St. Augustine which will be located at I-95 and CR-207. This one doesn’t seem to be as critical since it would be located within...

Yesterday, I met this woman who apparently turned out to be the CEO of the company that owns the Busy Bee franchise, and we were talking about Panama City Beach. She told me that they were opening a Busy Bee location in Panama City Beach close to the Pier Park mall. Busy Bee currently has 12...

Drove past this site the other day. It looked like there is fencing that has cordoned off the charger area.

Someone on Facebook (Erik Atl) posted this amazing photo and CNN posted this: Explosion reported at Florida shopping center - CNN Video

Yes, 2nd one in Jax (Town Center charger opened a few months ago plus one in St. Augustine-about 10 miles south of this location). Also, the updated Tesla app now shows nearby superchargers.

Jacksonville has power now. Will post photos when I can.

Looks like the pedestals are now in place. Steady progress.

Looks like Tesla has now updated its Supercharger map showing this charger location as now being open - Finally!! Also, I see that we have a Tesla that checked in this morning with a successful charge.

Update photo from this morning.

Photo 2

Photos of the area that they have now cordoned off at Wawa. It appears that these spaces are covering about half of a parking island on the south side of the Wawa building (on the side closest to Bono’s BBQ.

Too bad Wawa sits on the outskirts of the Town Center Mall. That will make it more difficult to cross the street to get to shops and restaurants and still be timely to get back. Besides Wawa, Bono’s BBQ and Black Creek Outfitters (think local version of REI - which is in the mall too) are both...

The Superchargers are close to being ready. I needed them this past weekend to avoid Lake City but no such luck.
