Wasn't there an investor call last week? You would've though this would be a good time to share details of the definite plan in place for the future of Tesla Charging... y'know, proactively share instead of letting this so called 'FUD' spread.

Here you go

Wouldn't be the first site to not happen under state funding programs (eg, NRMA at HomeCo Prestons became an Evie ARENA funded site instead) - plus surely it's not any 'easier' to expand existing sites instead of new ones?

Anyone else a little concerned at what the effect of the Tesla Charging team being fired will have for the rollout of future Superchargers in Australia? https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/entire-supercharging-team-fired.326329/

Now you can see just how long people have been plugged in at IKEA for. 4 and a half hours - maybe they got lost in the showroom?

Can't get the VIN over AC (except for Tesla EVs + the Tesla Wall Connector AFAIK) and I don't think the VIN is accessible over DC, and the MAC/ID accessible over DC isn't always unique to all cars Plug in and Charge aka Autocharge aka Plug & Charge I didn't realise this was possible - unless...

Today's app update adds support for seeing how long ago a charging session started (both AC and DC), but for DC also shows the state of charge for the car plugged in. Bring on the shaming!

I'm sure I've made at least 457 reports to councils about cars being parked illegally ;)

It would be nice if more networks fed this data to PlugShare, like Evie, bp pulse and Chargefox do. *glares at Tesla, etc*

Orders open in Australia now

NACS = North America = not down under. They have the franken Type 2 with support for DC - https://insideevs.com/news/318705/tesla-model-s-charging-inlet-in-europe/

It's still connected to an external source of electricity so it's still parked legally.

As per above, 203C is the same in NSW. https://legislation.nsw.gov.au/view/whole/html/inforce/current/sl-2014-0758#sec.203C You don't have to actually initiate a charging session - just be plugged in.

Yes the other states have had road rules 203B and 203C in effect for some time. As they're national road rules - the wording is the same. SA road rules are here - LZ You can park in a Jolt bay, plug in, and you're parked legally. You don't need to start a session to be parked legally. (Of...

Yes. Heck, technically you don't even need to start a charge to be parked legally (under the road rules you only need to be connected to an external source of electricity) if you really just wanted the parking - but that would be a terrible person thing to do.
