    Supercharger - Ellensburg, WA

    Tried to charge at Ellensburg supercharger today, but one was out of service, the rest in use, and a lineup of folks (> 5) waiting for their chance. Tesla navigation was recommending this stop??? I drove back to Cle Elum even tho I was heading east instead of waiting thru that mess. Not sure if...

    Did this fall thru or are you still on track to take this over? I was there today and print out on the wall said last day they will be open is August 31st unless there is a buyer.

    What's your 90%?

    Well that was short lived -- charged to 90% last night and only got 209 rated miles.

    What's your 90%?

    So after reading what wk057 had to say about balancing happening once the battery hits ~93%, I did a charge to 95% and then drove it over a few days until I got to around 50 rated miles left. Then I did a 90% charge. I did regain some miles -- went from 211 to 214 rated at 90% (but was at 206...

    Maybe the batteries as ballast?

    Heat / HVAC on 7.0 - poor performance?

    Same heating issue (lack of) here and I am an early vin (1776). Also, took forever for front heating defrost to work tonight (in Seattle area as well)

    As UI Slowly Gets Unsnarled ... Got Reminded Today of the Bigger Picture

    Absolutely agree. Might hate some minor things, but I always look forward to the updates -- just too cool. Love it.

    What's your 90%?

    Well, I did increase from 206 to 210 by charging to 90% regularly (or maybe it's the new firmware updates or some recent trips that exercised more of the battery for calculations or ...). @Sparrow and I have similar #'s, but I believe we are the worst of the 85's.

    What's your 90%?

    Was told the same by my SC. I'm not convinced that my battery is "operating as designed". I just keep hoping they find something as they look at my car's logs every so often. (A pack, 85kWh, 18k miles, 210 rated miles at 90%, on 7.0)

    Adios: Stepping back from TMC and likely Tesla in general

    Just wanted to add my "thanks" to @wk057. All the best to you.

    What's your 90%?

    I have never been close to 0 (maybe 20 miles left), charge to 60% typically but have been trying 90% for a few weeks (have tried this off and on for a while now), rarely charge to 100% but did so this weekend (verified still horrible), and my daily commute is small maybe 20sh miles/day. I have...

    What's your 90%?

    I have the exact same numbers as @Sparrow (2012 P85, 17k miles). Hate it and no relief from my constant pinging of tesla service center.

    Supercharger - Ellensburg, WA

    Charged this weekend, first time just me and no stalls ICEd. I think the cones help a bunch. Coming home, full stalls (none ICEd) and three of them were Tesla employees (2 washington dealer plates and one california mfg plate). Working weekends...hmmmm.

    Favorite electronic (for a 6 year old)

    So I thought I would share a quick story about my daughter attending her first TechSmartKids (introduction to coding) class. The instructors went around to all the kids asking for their favorite electronic device and you get the usual suspects -- leappad, ipad, kindle, etc... -- then it comes...
