Progress pictures sent to me by a friend who lives in Bancroft.

Just tested the ChargePoint station with my CHAdeMO connector and it works just fine in the mid 40s KW. It could be a fallback for the SC, but this is not yet a heavily traveled SC route. As the owner of a 2016 LEAF as well, this opens up the ability of legacy short-range EVs to drive across...

FWIW, this is a pretty decent location for spending some time. In addition to the Hy-Vee Market Grille, a Caribou Coffee at the Hy-Vee gas station, there's a Panera and Panda Express in walking distance a bit further west.

I stopped by to check out he Eagleville L2s and they work just fine. I also added them to PlugShare including some pics. They're part of the KCP&L CleanCharge Network which for many stations is no longer free. These are fee-based for $0.15/kWh plus tax which was set by the PUC (not KCP&L)...

No, it was a darker color like grey. But I like yours better. I'm rather partial to red. :-) Hope to see you around starting later summer. Has anyone looked into organizing a West Michigan Tesla Club? Might be fun to have ride-to-eat and National Drive Electric Week events. -Karl

... as well as the Tesla SC map: Find Us | Tesla Can anyone local verify?

I stopped by yesterday and it doesn't look like there was more progress from the last pics. The fencing around the transformers was not up yet. Also, I saw a Model 3 downtown Muskegon and I gave a thumbs up if it was one of you. :) -Karl

I have found the same thing and want to pay it forward. We hope to build a place in downtown Muskegon and I want to put at least a NEMA 14-50 for visitors.

Any updated pictures? The site still doesn't show on Tesla's SC map page. -Karl

We had a recent discussion in the KC Tesla FB group (Log into Facebook | Facebook) about the KC to Omaha route. A member with a 90D was getting warnings from the car that he wasn't going to make it to Council Bluffs with a full charge starting from Overland Park, KS (SW KC area). He ended up...

We used to live in West Michigan (Muskegon area) and want to come back and retire there. The public charging infrastructure seems to be a bit lacking (at least compared to my current "home" of Kansas City), so I would love to get involved in making that a bit better once I get there. Don't...

If you don't need/want to be downtown or the Plaza, there's a Holiday Inn near the airport with a free ChargePoint Level 2 set of chargers. Holiday Inn Kansas City Airport | KCMO, MO | Electric Car Charging Station | PlugShare The downside is that there's nothing much nearby in walking distance.

Here's the first Kansas City area event (we hope to organize more during that week). As listed on NDEW page and, if so inclined, the associated Facebook event. -Karl

There are several CHAdeMOs listed at Nissan dealers in Memphis.

That's awesome! I'd come up from Kansas City for an event like that and I'm sure I could get a few folks from our KC Tesla community to come with me. -Karl
