I had a root through the planning docs and saw the words 'Supercharger Stalls' on one of the plan view docs (see attached pdf). You need to zoom in quite away to see it. Not sure, on which side of the double parking spaces the Superchargers might be placed or how many 'SuperChargers might...

Smart TMC forum users also know that in the real world it's not always possible to arrive at the SuC @10% SOC or that perhaps 50% wont get you to the next charge point or that the temperature of the battery along with the ambient temp, plays a big part in determining charge rate. Some of us long...

Not sure I can speak for all exisiting S and X owners but I didn't find it a 'bind' at all! £180.00 and a couple of hours spent at the SC, wasn't an issue, I wasn't doing much anyway..... Far from being left out in the cold, we are now in from the cold being that we can continue to use Type2...

Not sure that the green or shade of it is the important factor here. IMO, ANPR in this country, I would assume checks the index against the national database to determine eligibilty to any potential benefits. Perhaps the "green" is only a token for being on message or perhaps a visual aid to...

Unless you have the same car, colour and configuration then I am not sure a picture of mine would help, perhaps a photoshop mock up would be better? Or, they are only £30.ish to buy, if you dont like them take them off again. Hope that helps.

Can't disagree with that. My aim was only to inform and calm the nervous nellies....

The shade of green from the plates PFC supplied me, isn't the same as the Tesla supplied plates on the 2021 cars that I've seen recently. It is softer, less vivid, and less standout. I can not confirm if it's exactly the right shade of green in a legal sense but it's green..... The shade...

Remember that Darwin guy ? he got a lot of negativity when he started out, fortunately he stuck with it. "We need doers! Brian" Personally I like waggling mine under the noses of those chelsea tractors as I zip silently pass. Every little helps! Think of the/our KIds when you get that glare...

I didn't suggest it was 'purely' milking, I was only adding to your speculation of "congestion" as a reason for the predominantly upward trajectory of the posted pricing table. The "perhaps" and "maybe" in my reply were the give away. I only wanted to introduce the notion of, one of the laws of...

Perhaps conjestion, or maybe those fat cows need milking? There are lots more supercharger sites required now and in the future that need to be paid for and its got to come from somewhere so why not the users? All those pennies in the jar, help all of us in club Tesla eventually. We have to go...

I'll be happy not to veer into the wrong lane again if we can all rememeber the correct route for this thread. Unfortunately, It can be tempting to put your foot down and tailgate flashing and honking when provoked. Maybe we all need a driver awareness refresher course from time to time as you...

I couldn't agree more. I am just replying to the OP of posts which could be considered non-supercharger site news. Not me gov ... :) Like you I thought it was meant to be about relevant important site news and up and coming sites. A bit of banter doesn't hurt though or it could be a tad dull....

Why would I want to pay 5p a kilowatt hour between 12.30am and 4:30am when I can get it for 0p at anytime at the very nearby supercharger. I am also not limited to a 28kw a night charge at the Supercharger. I'll pop those 5ps in the jar too! I already have Octopus go but thanks for your kind...

Following on from your post and my previous post, peej... It could be conceivable that after some older model S's and X's have sucked all the useful life out of their current batteries and are due for replacement after years of useful service and planet saving..... The replacement batteries...

Thanks for the info Peej. It's broadly in line with my experiences at the supercharger recently. My 4 year old Model S performance with just over 50,000 miles still achieves over 100 kw when warmed up and at a lower SOC. The charging split is probably even on home and supercharging. Assuming...
