    Tesla St Leonards to close

    I think you'll find that all of the issues being brought up in this thread is a result of Tesla growing ridiculously fast, rather than people not caring. I work with the Tesla team on the business side, and the people I deal with, right from the top to the people on the floor, all really care...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Charging at Airport West Chargefox site and just hit 176kW. Ran the battery down to 50km but still couldn't get close to the 198kW that Paul Maric from Car Advice got. Can also confirm that power levels are very much restricted at low range. I have added 51kWh in 24 minutes or around 315km.

    Melbourne HPWC installation

    Hi guys - just a quick one from the viewpoint of a recommended installer, and have been for the past 5 years, installed more than 1000 as a company. For Tesla installs at the moment, when we give a quote, we always say it's a rough guide, and the final price will be quoted on the day...

    Melbourne HPWC installation

    Hi guys - long time Tesla owner and I also happen to run JET Charge - just some thoughts from my own point of view: 1. We generally don't ask for photos to firm up quotes because inevitably only a small percentage of people can be bothered to send us photos, and it ends up being too difficult...

    Model 3 Charging in Australia

    Just a word of caution on the adapter barrel (which you can also buy on Alibaba). When we were looking to manufacture our own we found that on the Model S it stuck out WAY too much and was a safety hazard. Also increased the chance of people bumping into it or cars scraping against it. SO we...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Performance Model 3 ordered without FSD. Got it in black. Will get it de-chromed and de-badged. If the black doesn't look good in the flesh I'm going to wrap it in brown to match my Model S :D :D

    Fellow MS owners from Vic

    Hi @Dilz it's Tim from Chargefox here. You will need a CHAdeMO adapter from Tesla or loan one from the Tesla Owners Club and you will need to download the Chargefox app. That's it!

    ChargeFox EV charging Network

    Definitely didn't forget but unfortunately not part of phase 1 rollout. We do operate a 50kW DC charger through City of Launceston.

    ChargeFox EV charging Network

    Awww don't be like that Paul, we're trying to cater for the large number of EVs to come, many of which are still in development, that will no doubt take advantage of very high powered charging. We didn't want our infrastructure to become redundant as soon as it is built. Elon himself has...

    ChargeFox EV charging Network

    Hey guys! Wow I haven't been on these forums for a while. Thanks for the interest on these sites, and to answer your questions and to make a few comments (please note these are my views only and do not reflect the views of Chargefox and/or JET Charge): 1. We chose 350kW charging because it...

    NRMA fast charging network

    I wouldn't go speculating on what kind of equipment is going on these sites just yet guys. But as @Chuq points out, there is a lot more cost than the hardware itself.

    Independent Fuel Stations and EV charging

    You need to separate the various "big oil" business streams. From an extraction, refinement and supply perspective, yes they will absolutely want to keep their monopolies and reliance on fossil fuels. There is no doubt about that. To that end they will try and promote hydrogen because it...

    Confused Model X owner re charging

    It's true, one of my biggest failings as a webstore owner is changing the stock levels -_- I've got a few pre-orders and there's another shipment coming. Just trying to get word from the manufacturer when they can be shipped. I'll update the store now!
