Separate names with a comma.
That's the rule for single-family new construction. Multi-family require an actual EVSE.
I believe having EV charging is now required in all new multifamily housing across CA.
The problem with the Groveland SuperCharger is the altitude. CA-120 breaks 6,000ft, so during the winter, it often closes when the weather gets...
The pull in slots are for folks towing trailers.
For v3 chargers, they are generally divisible by 4. While there are a few oddities, it's always due to space constraints. In Merced, I just...
Yeah, I think this is happening for liability reasons. L3 charging uses a ton of energy, and even a minor problem can cause serious damage to the...
While a common model are the ones that look like breakers; there are also in-line surge protectors. Basically, a standalone device that is wired...
If it makes you feel better, you still have "exclusive" access to the world's best L3 charging network... TBH, the Destination Charging network...
That address lines up with a planned Electrify America L3. Regarding the Tesla SC; we'll have to see once the construction gets a little farther...
1 to 4 ratio of cabinets to posts = v3.
Yosemite's southern entrance (the one close to Fish Camp) won't open until the 11th. Makes sense for the lodge not to open until the day prior....
There should be a "sad panda" voting option on this forum... Anyway, "hopefully" this means they are upgrading to V3. But this one has been...
The vast majority of hydropower stations in the US (including Hoover, Grand Coulee, Bonneville, The Dalles) are federally owned. It's been...
I imagine there's an upstream distribution panel which splits the power between the structure and the SC. I bet that's what the owner has a key to.
I've used the restroom at the Starbucks recently. One has to cross the big street, but at least there's a crosswalk at the light.
I am super excited about this one. In addition to being a great stop on the way in/out during the winter, it's less than a 30 min drive from the...
With Tesla's recent map update, Mariposa is now listed as 2022; Merced is Q2 2021; and El Portal as Q4 2021. So, fingers crossed there will be a...
So an update for anyone that's interested. Even though the Service Advisor said my MX would be setup for contactless pickup, it was not. I tried...
That's the one problem. The app is still showing it's in Service Mode. The sales side of the SC is open today, so I plan to talk to folks there....
I dropped my MX off this morning for some work. At 5:30PM, I got a text that the car was done, and that I should pay. I paid in the app, and now...
The CAV transponder is just a Flex transponder with a sticker on it (and that's linked to a CAV VIN). After your CAV stickers expire, the...
I recommend CalTrans QuickMap app. It'll show you were all the rest stops are (and if they're open/closed). Since the start of the pandemic,...
I was at Medford last Friday, site worked perfectly well. It is definitely showing up in the nav (it was even the recommended charging stop). If...
Even if the TEG doesn't transmit anything, it actually eats up a fair bit of bandwidth just broadcasting its beacon. See: SSIDS overhead effect...
If the TEG is connected to the home network via WiFi, does it still broadcast its own network? That would eliminate all the extra beacon traffic.
Good luck getting electrical service to these locations... Lots of trailheads don't have electrical service. And those that do, it's barely...
This seems really silly. One would imagine Tesla's contract clearly spells out how many stalls will be installed, and that they are for the...
They are in the "San Joaquin Valley Region", and Dec 27 would be the end of the 3 week timeout. That being said, that region continues to the be...
Ah sorry, misunderstood. Yes, "little top-ups" really shouldn't be a problem. As for the long-term problems related to 100% SuperCharging, that...
The real issue is solely relying on fast charging. I.e. apartment/condo dwellers without access to L2 chargers at home/work. Using the SC...
I acknowledge that, but I really don't think Tesla has sold that many adapters, and of the sold adapters, I doubt they're much used. The adapter...
This time I agree with you. :) I feel like truck stops and the larger format stations (like you say, Wawa, Sheetz, Flying-J, etc) would be...
I see this differently. There are no new (native) CHAdeMO cars being built for the the US market. Sure, Tesla makes an adapter, but most people...
At some point, every little roadside town with at least some services (fast food, restaurants, coffee, gas stations, etc) will get a supercharger....
I'd imagine in Jan/Feb (after the holiday rush) they take care of the upgrade. No sense shutting down any amount of stalls during the holiday rush.
Maybe they're ripping out the v2 conduit to install v3 conduit??? Or maybe this will still stay a v2 site, just there was an issue during...
Except when the wiper get stuck half way, and your daily production gets cut in half... ;)
So.... Just going to re-quote myself here. Maybe they will install urban pedestals after all???
My favorite is still Santana Row. Two different SuperChargers in the app/website. But both are in the same parking structure. Just 4 levels apart.
They use at&t just like the cars do. But yeah, cell service is bad in Groveland. Most business there have WIFI (for paying customers) though.
The service from the utility generally does not equal 250 x stall count. Tesla presumes that not everyone will plug in simultaneously and not...
Maybe camp mode is different, but I've recently noticed that several other of the <20% features (always on A/C, Sentry Mode, etc) will continue to...
Clearly, the solution is for Tesla to stop manufacturing cars until the SuperCharger network catches up.
I'd be very curious to see the max rate when someone with a low SOC plugs in. There's a part of me that wonders if these will be rate limited to...
For people traveling up/down the coast, often nav systems will say taking 680/880 is faster than looping out to I-5 or 101/280. That's on top of...
But there's a pandemic... (**sigh** /me retreats back to hermetically sealed bubble...). Something similar happened last year. A ton of new SCs...
It was my understanding that Urban chargers were targeted at areas with high apartment/condo living, where SuperCharging was the primary way to...
Another factor are all the wildfires on the west coast. I imagine those fires are wiping out lots of electrical gear that needs to be rapidly...
Well, it's getting close to Yosemite's snowy session, so CA-120 (and the Groveland SuperCharger) are soon going to become a far less ideal route....
Yeah, you probably will end up with 3 independent 200A systems. Other with 400A house ended up splitting their 400A service into two 200A...
