Yes, I just talked to Mark Ridley today. They're hosting this, Ely, and Wellington, CO. They just pulled permits so things are moving along.

Was just texting Mark. He said they just pulled their building permits for the stores they're hosting superchargers in Ely, Kemmer WY and Wellington, CO. They explained to Ridley's that Ely has been slow going because they had to go back to the custom built versions because of the elevations...

Ridley just told me they’re finally starting contractor bids next week. I guess I’m surprised they hadn’t gotten to that point yet but maybe things will finally start to move.

Unfortunately I missed the window I think for both. I'm currently traveling. I'll message a mod.

Just got word Ridley’s just signed leases with Tesla to host superchargers in American Falls and Black foot. I started a separate thread for American Falls. That’s all I have for now, but these are going up quick (except Ely for some reason).

Just my 2 bits to confirm what everyone’s been seeing. Ridleys is done with their part, and Tesla told Mark weeks ago they were about to start construction and…crickets. My theory is the supercharging team in this area has been busy with Idaho stuff. They recently brought a 2nd badly needed...

I’ve done that stretch, there’s a more reasonably priced CCS in Alamo that can help make that jump. We didn’t need much time at it, just a boost to make it that last 90 miles or so to Vegas.

Very possible, with the way it’s been going. But we’ve seen them go up fairly quick once construction has started so I’m still hopeful.

Just talked to Mark, they told him they’re starting construction this week.And with the new prefab chargers it should go fairly quick. We should be charging here in September.

The coffee shop is complete and has been for a while. Not sure what Tesla’s holdup was but they just told Ridley’s they’ll be there to start the install in a few weeks.

I ran into Mark Ridley today at the Twin Falls supercharger. He’d just come back from Ely. Said the electrical looks almost done and they’re finishing up the parking lot for the coffee shop. This one has been slower going for Tesla because of that concurrent project which hasn’t been moving too...

Hey guys. Good news. Tesla will begin construction in March and the project is scheduled to take March-April. If everything goes smooth should be online by end of April.

Sorry, I haven’t been on this thread for a while. They haven’t started on construction yet because for some reason they have to wait for the coffee shop to get past a certain point before they can begin. Maybe they don’t want the Tesla workers getting in the way. That’s the word from Mark...

Hey if it helps, I just got the CCS adapter Harumio is selling themselves (not the Tesla branded one they were doing before) for $230. Took 10 days to get here shipped from China. I tested it last night at an Electrify America and hit 150kW starting around 15% SOC. If your car has CCS adapter...
