    Supercharger - San Jose, CA - Coleman Ave (LIVE 31 Aug 2018, 12 stalls)

    Heard 18 stalls at Santana Row. Not sure where they will put them, and doesn't that sound like they are asking for ICE'ing problems?

    Supercharger - Concord, CA (LIVE 2 Mar 2018, 19 V2 stalls)

    Somebody needs to do some snooping around San Ramon according to sources.

    Home Charging - What do I need to do/buy?

    A friendly electrician is the key, even if its a friend of a friend. When you tell an electrician you want to install a 14-50, he is going to try and get 50 amps to it. The key is getting 220v. I had an issue getting wiring to my garage. Couldn't fit 6thhn in existing conduit but could get some...

    Multiple CA Supercharger locations down in past 5 months: breakdowns, vandalism, or theft?

    I would bet Tesla pays under $3k... I wonder what the black market value is on the stolen ones.

    Multiple CA Supercharger locations down in past 5 months: breakdowns, vandalism, or theft?

    I like the idea about Tesla marking the breakers in some way that makes them less desirable on the black market. There is also a restraining bolt on these breakers that they may want to change to a tamperproof bolt. The funny thing is that these aren't high demand breakers so the aftermarket...

    Supercharger - Indio, CA (LIVE, 36 V3 + 8 V2 + 2 Urban stalls)

    The breakers. Worth more than the copper to the right (shady) people.

    Supercharger - Indio, CA (LIVE, 36 V3 + 8 V2 + 2 Urban stalls)

    They aren't stealing the copper cable. The small amount in the switchboard isn't worth the nice shock they would get. They do know what they are doing however. Must be somebody with an electrical background

    Assistance for Coal Miners and Coal Industry Workers

    How about a gigafactory in West Virginia and a new Model 3 plant in Pennsylvania. That would be a good start.

    Another Californian whining about Supercharger Locations :)

    I mentioned in another thread about 6 weeks ago on something coming to Sacramento city proper. No good clue where yet but it is going to be a larger than normal site. Just thinking out loud, something at the Natomas marketplace or another shopping center off Truxel would make the most sense...

    Wiki Supercharger Progress

    If any of you sleuths want to sniff around Sacramento, I have heard that a large site is close to happening... like construction pending. No idea of exact location but supposedly in city limits.

    Supercharger - Barstow (EXPANDED, 5 stalls added, now 16 total)

    At Tesla its a top priority, not sure about the City of Barstow or the utility... that's the hang-up normally.

    Supercharger - Barstow (EXPANDED, 5 stalls added, now 16 total)

    I have it on good authority that Barstow enlargement/bulletproofing is being super-expedited. Orders from the top!

    Charging X and S

    John F, please do yourself a favor and replace the Zinsco panel. I see where most electricians get replacement breakers for them and its not pretty. The breakers just don't trip. Its like putting a nail in a fuse holder. A 3 alarm fire waiting to happen.
