    Updated to 2023.44.30 (cabin camera enforcement) Anyway to roll back??

    I asked Tesla to clarify; the response I got today was evasive.

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    The thing is that if you have both hands on the wheel, the torque applied to the wheel by gravity on one arm would offset the torque applied by gravity on the other arm. Simple physics.

    Supercharger - Ames, IA

    I would think that ones near Clear Lake and Osceola, IA, and Cameron, MO, would be very helpful in filling the longer gaps on I-35 between Minneapolis and Kansas City.

    Supercharger- Merrillville, IN

    App says 10 stalls total as I type this.

    Supercharger- Black River Falls , WI

    I only charged to about 65% here on my trip to Chicago over the weekend. The key with per-minute pricing is to know when to unplug.

    Supercharger - Monticello, MN

    Per the Tesla app, this location is now open to non-Tesla EV's.

    Supercharger - Blaine, MN

    Time of day pricing per the app. The pricing looks the same as Robbinsdale.

    Supercharger - Eagan, MN

    It is now. Pricing is the same as Bloomington (variable based on time of day).

    Supercharger - Stevens Point, WI

    Portage, at the Metro truck stop, would also be an extremely useful one, as would one at Coloma (splitter for both 39 and 21).

    Supercharger - Stevens Point, WI

    It's not like you are going to have people going all the way through on 10; people would ge through on I-94 to Osseo and exit there to continue straight to Stevens Point. You have the superchargers in Oakdale, Menomonie, and Eau Claire along I-694 and I-94, This is a splitter for I-39 for the...

    Supercharger - Lincoln, NE - West O Street

    On the last few trips across Nebraska, I have used the EA station a little further west on O Street, because it is a more convenient location.

    Supercharger - Bloomington, MN

    Pay attention, they changed the supercharger pricing recently, and also changed the peak/off peak hours at many locations.

    We saw that at St. Paul, too.

    Minnesota Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    You may also want to check out the pricing again. TOU pricing is now in use at the Minneapolis supercharger, and many of the others had various pricing changes. Outstate superchargers look like they went down in price again.

    Minnesota Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    Last time I looked, there was a huge pile of snow where the supercharger would be.

    EVgo now mimics supercharger

    Once it's set up, you are good to go. All you will need the app for is to find the chargers, manage your charging plan, view your history, update your payment method, and, when the time comes, to update the roster of cars on your account. As soon as my car is plugged in, I see a notification of...

    Interesting EVgo developments

    Interesting that I noticed that EVgo is now operational in Roseville, MN. I charged there earlier today.

    Tesla Battery degradation

    Paging the mods, this thread should be moved to the battery subforum.

    choosing supercharging stops

    Tap on the right hand edge of the screen, then select the charging stops - if you do so, it will show the superchargers in the area. I did Minneapolis to the Chicago area over Thanksgiving weekend. The stops I did were Eau Claire EA, Tomah (SC or EA), Lake Delton, Janesville; when I got there...

    choosing supercharging stops

    Is the nav system sending you to Oakdale? Here's how I would do this trip in my car if you don't like the routing: - If you do not have a CCS1 adapter, I would start by setting the Menomonie supercharger and Tomah supercharger as waypoints along the route, and force the navigation system to...

    Supercharger - Owatonna, MN

    This would do nicely to split the gaps between Bloomington and Albert Lea, and between Rochester and St. Peter. Now, looking to split more gaps between the Twin Cities and Kansas City along I-35; logical locations in Iowa are Clear Lake, Ames, and Osceola.

    Supercharger- Black River Falls , WI

    I would think that if the goal is to replace the existing supercharger in the same area, there is a large Target store near Oakwood Mall that would do nicely.it’s closer to I-94. How far is Woodman’s from WI 29? I agree with the comments about Coloma, which would be a splitter not just on I-39...

    Supercharger- Black River Falls , WI

    All the likely choices are off exit 116, WI 54. Culver's is my guess. Kwik Trip is also a possibility. I think EVgo is more likely to go into Flying J with the deal announced between EVgo, Pilot Flying J, and GM this year. There is also a Walmart that is more likely to host EA. This would fill...

    Minnesota Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    You may want to check the superchargers in the navigation system before you go - the pricing changed again. In the metro area, Robbinsdale went to a three-tier time of use structure; Maple Grove went up slightly; Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Oakdale went down in price, and at Minnetonka, St. Louis...

    Free Volta DC Fast Charging - CCS Plug

    There is a Volta DCFC stall in Burnsville, MN, but as I type this, it is down, and has been for some time. Apparently, it is not showing up in Plugshare. The was the 30 minute period works is that you would not be charged if your session completes within 30 minutes, but you would be charged for...

    Minnesota Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    I also think Tesla needs to look at Faribault, Owatonna, or Medford. I think Iowa needs Clear Lake, and either Ames or Story City to fill gaps on 35 north of Des Moines; they also need to work on the Des Moines to Kansas City corridor, thinking Osceola or Van Wert would be near ideal from a...

    Unknown Error BMS_a066

    Before I went in, about 220 miles as estimated by the car using the EPA numbers. Now, about 262 miles using the same metric. I've had it back for about a week and plan to take a road trip this weekend.

    Maybe the original estimate was more realistic than I thought. I got my car back today.

    Unknown Error BMS_a066

    Mine is still at the service center. The app originally gave me an estimated completion date of tomorrow (10/14/22); based on what I was seeing, I thought the timeline was unrealistic. The staff at the service center agreed; the estimate is now October 19. They provided a loaner; since that...

    Unknown Error BMS_a066

    62k miles on mine, got the message a little over a week ago, took it in yesterday, currently have a loaner. Estimate calls for inspection of firmware for boombox feature (completed), discharge HV battery, remove and replace HV battery, check tire pressure and condition. Based on what Tesla...

    Also worth noting that they are showing live in the app but not in the nav system as of last night.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    I have made quite a bit of use of the CCS adapter since I got mine in May. Tesla is aware I have one. This is very useful to bridge relatively large gaps between superchargers where you have an EA station, for instance, that works well near the midway point. For a Cannonball Run, this makes the...

    Supercharger - Minneapolis, MN

    That at least gives some insight on why it took so long. Back up to 10 stalls per Tesla’s app.

    Supercharger - Perry, OK

    Since I have the CCS adapter, when I passed through the area in June, I charged at the Electrify America station in Blackwell, largely to avoid the problems I had seen with Perry when I was planning the trip. Tesla needs to show some love on I-35 in Oklahoma, and I think a location closer to...

    Supercharger - Maple Grove, MN

    As of now, one meter and one empty spot for another meter. Saw the same in Bloomington today.

    Supercharger - Bloomington, MN

    Transformer in place, looks like there is only one meter (this location also has ChargePoint stalls, for which the electricity would be paid by Target, which would explain the location for the second meter).
