    Yes, cattle smell (depending on wind direction and location of cattle). But stay in car- or, if open, go in restaurant and have coffee. Also, you can charge enuf to get to next charger and use it. I remember those days when there was no option.

    Blocking signs have been removed. No indication of any change. Suspect weather may be a problem. But will keep eye out.

    New signs with tape blocking stalls for next 2 weeks. They may finally be connecting to the utility. I will keep an eye on it.

    I agree. The only reason I assumed it would be PG&E was as the installation crew was leaving they told me the "power company" had to run underground cables to connect. I never thought it would be farmed out - but makes sense. Thanks for the info.

    As will current locations as they get older and new tech provides quicker and more efficient use of available power by advances in EV car design.

    Still no hookup to PG&E. We just had 4 days electrical outage pretty much all over the Peninsula and are expecting another lengthy storm end of this week. PG&E is extremely busy with these outages, so my guess is March/April.... or even May .... 2024

    Superchargers in Hawaii (location speculation, general discussion)

    No, do not, cannot and have no reason to try to charge both vehicles at the same time on that one line to the charger. We had a line installed (years ago) from the main panel (oppostite side of house from garage). That line goes to a sub panel (installed on Garage wall) which has installed in...

    Superchargers in Hawaii (location speculation, general discussion)

    In 2013, shortly after Tesla installed our solar panels, we had a 50A line run from our main panel, to the detached garage - installed a separate small panel for it (nothing else on that panel). Then ran a cable from that panel behind the drywall to the opposite wall for the Tesla charger (40A)...

    Superchargers in Hawaii (location speculation, general discussion)

    No... We have two Teslas and previously charged one at a time on the 50A line we had run to the garage when our first of 3 Teslas was bought in 2013. Having just the two now - we would only charge one at a time, which was not a problem. My wife's commute is about 120 miles - mine is 3 miles...

    How long between inspection and PTO? [various areas]

    Never got a manual or how to add battery to my car and solar app (unless there is a different app).

    Supercharger - Pacific Grove, CA (LIVE 12 Apr 2024, 12 V3 stalls)

    I was told by the crew (as they were 'departing the site') that PG&E had yet to run a 'line' from the street - puportedly underground'. I don't see a spot for the telltale green transformer, so not sure what will be the indication that opening is eminent. PG&E has different priorities with the...

    Superchargers in Hawaii (location speculation, general discussion)

    We had our Tesla home charger removed at request of Tesla due to a Powerwall installation - which is an addition to our Tesla solar panels that were installed in 2013 (no reason given). Were told if we want to put it back after, that's our choice. Still haven't - but we have been able to charge...

    How long between inspection and PTO? [various areas]

    Had Powerwall added to Solar installation (2013) last month - got PTO within 3 days after inspection. Still trying to get Powerwall battery added to App. Impossible to get help from Tesla. Any suggestions?
