    Minnesota Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    I know Someone had commented about WI per minute charging rates a while back. The Gov signed a bill in the last 3 weeks that now allows private retailers to sell electricity by the kWh. However, the Republican sponsored bill also requires a $0.03 per kWh tax to all public use chargers to...

    Minnesota Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    Hate to be a Debbie downer, but I’d be surprised if MN gets 3-4. I’m thinking an upgrade in Rochester area. Eastern I 90 needs a better location. Closer to the interstate. Perhaps Hoyt Lakes, Virginia, Grand rapids.

    Supercharger - Manning park, BC

    While nothing is guaranteed. But That’s 4 months away. I’d say odds are 99.9% that it will be. Regardless you have the other DCFC units available if you have CCS enabled with the CCS to NACS adapter

    Supercharger - Girdwood, AK

    Good question, I would have to assume they do to some extent. But since the line adds to the local infrastructure, I'd guess 50%. I would have thought there was already a 3-phase trunkline feeding the Ski area for the Lifts. Having adequate power supply is one of the hurdles Tesla has to deal...

    I thought this part was interesting in the application request.

    Supercharger - Lost Hills, CA - Highway 46E (permit applied)

    While it's great having these Super-Sized installations, Tesla also needs to set up agreements with businesses to locate on site and provide site sanitary maintenance. Onsite Restrooms, garbage collection and grounds keeping at a minimum. Otherwise, they will quickly turn unsightly in today's...

    The physical address listed shows up as: SKI Inn Bed & Breakfast , 189 Hightower rd. Girdwood, AK. It is about a city block NE of the parking lot area.

    I’ve been to Jerome and Cottonwood e few times. I love the winding drive. I don’t recall the Haunted Hamburger though. We spent a few hours walking the shops the last time we were out there though. Summer 2022. We flew that time though.

    That’s a possibility for the return trip. We are heading to the Prescott area for a visit with family. I like to do the travel to AZ in 2 days and the return home in 3 days via an alternate route. The last time we did the trip in 2019. We decided to take I-25 from ABQ to Trinidad, CO. We spent...

    Supercharger - Minot, ND

    Might be worth stopping and inquiring with the manager or owner of the Grocery store. Just say, you heard rumors a Tesla charging installation was being planned for the property, is that true? See what the answer is. If yes, ask if they have any estimates when it’s going to be installed?

    Supercharger - Worthington, MN - Oxford Street

    To be clear, I did the DIY install a few months after it became possible to do. Very easy, but I did have to wait for the next OTA update to sync the replacement charge port ECU. This was before we had public access to service mode. However, ever since then, I experience a weird Fault at 19-20%...

    Supercharger - Salem, IL

    But, due to the angled positioning, would allow easy access to Non-Tesla vehicles in the future. You would lose access to one stall minimum. It will be years before you see this location anywhere near max capacity though. Although with the Eclipse is coming, the network could see a massive...

    The problem with the DCFC like ZEF is once they are installed, there is no financial incentive to be had for maintaining it. If it was a broken gas pump, you can be damn sure the business owner would get it fixed asap to continue selling product even if there were other pumps available.
