I said this in another thread….but there is now a 240kw CCS in Eveleth/Virgina, at the Ford dealer. I don’t know about the accessibility, but it does have a credit card reader, which suggests public access. It just came online it appears. It is shown on PlugShare.

PlugShare shows a 240kw CCS, 2 dispensers, that is going into the Ford dealer in Eveleth/Virginia. The listing doesn’t say if it will be available to the public or other details. I hope that as Ford builds out their EV dealer network it won’t be so piecemeal.

Where does everyone think MN’s newest SC will be…Virginia, International Falls, Grand Rapids, Ely, Roseau? I personally hope for Virginia or Ely. Just three or four more SCs and the state will be essentially covered.

On PlugShare there is a photo that claims to be showing this SC getting Magic Docks. That would be nice as there is no other DCFC between Dickinson and Billings.

I believe that transformer was there before construction started and is not directly related to the project. One kiosk is a long, pull-in, back-out, arrangement. I’ve never seen that before, but will be nice as I’ve seen many Teslas towing boats in the area.

I was by a last Sunday, possibly minor changes 8/11 photos but the main update is not much happening.

They have begun excavation. Photo taken 7/6.

Drove by today. Looks like the SCs will be behind the building. The area is fenced off and staked.

It seems like it would be a challenge to make an extension when the cables are liquid cooled? My understanding is that they are making an adpater extension for Fords at least, but how with the heat be managed?

I hope this is the start of a trend going into smaller “markets” with 4 stalls. Ely, Grand Marais, International Falls, those types of places.

Hi. I am looking for a set of the optional Model S aero wheels. I think they were available from 2012 to 2013. I am in Minneapolis, Minnesota. If you have a set you are looking to sell, please contact me. I do not need tires. I would also trade for my 19" standard 5 pair/spoke rims. Thanks!

I would just stay at a hotel that has, or is close to, a j1772 or level 2 Tesla charger. That is searchable on PlugShare. I stayed at the Element Hotel in Omaha a few years ago and they had a Tesla charger at least. The hotel was fine.

The issue I am having is that my 2014 S has decided for me that I want the HD2 channel for one of my local stations, so I can’t even listen to their normal/main broadcast…there is no way to change it.

But you could spend time on a level 3 in GM with a Chademo adapter. I mean, I know its not ideal but you don't need to spend time on a level 2 as stated. I don't know what vehicle you drive, but the Lutsen Tesla charger delivers 80 amps, gotta have dual chargers....

According to an article from Energy News Network: "The second budget cycle will expand the fast-charging network by 2,500 miles by focusing on seven corridors: State Highway 61 from Duluth to Grand Portage State Park; State Highway 1 between Ely and Thief River Falls; U.S. Route 59 from Granite...
