    Supercharger - Plano, Texas

    Yep. still there, still being used. It’s difficult to get to the 3rd floor of that garage and those speed bumps are REALLY annoying. There’s no reason to shut it down, but no reason to upgrade it either.

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - West Spring Creek Parkway

    I checked just now and there’s no action, no meters.

    Supercharger - Frisco, TX - Preston Road

    Tesla guy says it will be up in about 45 minutes. The final configuration is under way.

    Working overtime on Saturday to get everything hooked up

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - West Spring Creek Parkway

    I chatted with the Tesla guy who tells me this site is waiting on inspection, and once it passes it will be waiting on Oncor’s meter. Couple more weeks?

    Supercharger - Frisco, TX - Preston Road

    I chatted with Leonard from Tesla who says this site will be up in the next week or two. It is waiting on the meter from Oncor. The 12 pedestals and 3 cabinets have all been placed and the site has been cleaned up.

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - West Spring Creek Parkway

    That’s progress. When I was there last Friday the chargers were still wrapped in plastic and there was construction debris all over. I bet they’re waiting on the meter to be installed.

    Supercharger - Frisco, TX - Preston Road

    Yep, it looks like a supercharger. Location is behind Burlington, just east of Mall Road F. Early stage construction. They do have a transformer(!) but no meter.

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - West Spring Creek Parkway

    It looks like they’re getting ready to hook up to the high voltage line today. I did not see any substantial difference in the SC area, so I guess they’re waiting for Oncor to finish doing their thing.

    Yep. 8 of ‘em just east (behind) the Subway shop. I’m freezin’ my … out here! 16°

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - Windhaven Parkway

    All I get is 30kW because Tesla nerfed the older model S’s. I think it’s a conspiracy to make us buy new cars.

    Supercharger - Addison, TX

    DB of NTTOG just reported it’s online. Also said one stall is ICEd.

    Supercharger - McKinney, TX

    yeah, don’t use the .com map, it’s only updated once a quarter if that. Supercharge.info gets updated first. The car’s Navigator gets update a few days later.

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - Windhaven Parkway

    Confirmed online. It doesn’t show up in the Nav, but we know that takes a few more days.

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - Windhaven Parkway

    Looks purdy, no juice. We’re waiting on a blessing from the electron gods. Otherwise,it looks like they’re done.

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - Windhaven Parkway

    Electrical contractors say they’ll be done today. AFAIK the only remaining task is for the Tesla tech to program the site. This must be record time for bringing up a supercharger! The signage on the parking stalls said “Tesla Charging Only” — not shared stalls.
  17. TMC Bubba

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - Windhaven Parkway

    I just spoke to the Tesla tech. He says this site will be up either tomorrow (Friday) or Monday. He also said the site at Legacy will be down for maintenance tomorrow. It’s due for its three year maintenance.
  18. TMC Bubba

    Supercharger - Plano, TX - Windhaven Parkway

    I saw no construction at that address today (as expected), but it Would be a good site if it bears out. Ample free parking, low traffic in the parking lot (a lot of doctor offices), ICEing should not be a problem, easy highway access, and a lot of Tesla owners in the area. I hope it’s for real!

    Supercharger - Round Rock, TX

    I bet they use Google when doing a text search for "RR Supercharger". Since Google doesn't know about this SC yet, it can't find it. You have to use one of Tesla's non-Google searches outlined above.

    Supercharger - Abbott, TX

    My Navigator says it’s online, can anyone confirm?

    Supercharger - Louisville, KY (9500 Preston Hwy)

    Good location. On my way to Bowling Green from Chicago.

    Supercharger - Gilman, IL

    I just witnessed this while supercharging here. More supercharging needs more wind power.

    Supercharger - Grapevine, TX

    This supercharger has completely disappeared from the navigator. No wrench, nothing. Has anybody charged there today?

    Have you tried running your route through ABRP (A Better Route Planner)? It might give you a ballpark estimate.

    Did you ever get an answer? Same thing happened to me on MCU replacement.

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    Interesting. Mine sends me from Denton to Childress and totally blows past Henrietta without stopping. It says I should arrive in Childress with 9% remaining. Hmmm.

    Supercharger - Alvarado, TX

    I would suggest that the community does a BETTER job than Tesla of keeping everyone informed. No disrespect to Tesla intended, but I always check here to find out the real story.

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    This has to be some kind of record. Henrietta has been up since October 5th and it’s still not on the car’s Navigator.

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    PlugShare is frequently inaccurate about such things. RVparking.com reports 80 full hookups at Rocking A (Rocking A RV Park, Vernon, TX | RVParking.com). The Hampton at Vernon also has chargers. But seriously, you’ll be fine at the Henrietta Supercharger.

    We will know when someone in this forum posts it. SERIOUSLY.

    Supercharger - Lusk, WY

    Probably until somebody has to get towed to Denver. Two of those chargers were messed up when I was there in May.

    Could you at least water those blasted trees while you’re taking pictures? I don’t want to be looking at a bunch of dead trees when I go there to charge.

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    Two things: 1) 265 miles is 100% on an S85D like rafacq was driving and importantly, 2) That route is asymmetric. It usually takes a lot more energy to drive west than east due to the elevation change and prevailing winds. All that said, you should be fine in an LR3. Just don't get too cocky...

    This site blew up after our last party there. Better luck next time?

    Supercharger - Austin, TX - Research Blvd.

    My bet: SC-072X2 means Urban Superchargers. 72kW, not shared.

    Looks like a V2.5 to me. I’m on site right now.

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    I’ve heard through the grapevine that Tesla is opening a Service Center in Wichita Falls this week. It’s not on their map yet. Has anyone else heard anything? It would be really nice if they planted a couple of Superchargers there.

    Supercharger - Huntsville, TX

    I once quizzed phone support about reporting SC issues. They said you can’t report it by email, you have to phone it in, so I always call when I start charging and wait for them to pick up. They usually pick up before I unplug. Their support guy encouraged me to keep calling in problems, so I...

    Supercharger - Jackson WY

    That’s what the Nav did to me this May. I called Tesla to complain, their tech said 1) try rebooting (get serious) and 2) would I like to bring the car for for service (no thank you). I’ve since learned there is an email to report Nav problems, sorry I don’t have it on me. I expect the guy on...

    IIRC Elon said Superchargers will not be operated as profit centers — unlike some of the other EV players, I would add.

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    Since we’re speculating on locations, I’d vote for the Cracker Barrel at 2400 Sierra Dr. That’s the intersection of I-44 and US 287, two major thoroughfares. Cracker Barrel is EV friendly and has a number of locations around Texas that have Chademo charging on site. I do not know if they own...

    Supercharger - Henrietta, TX

    Possible? I’d say very unlikely. I have a first hand report from a P85+ owner who tried and failed. He had to stop at an RV Park in Vernon to make it. There’s a 1200 foot elevation change and strong cross winds that eat into your range. Eastward travel is easier. I’ve done that using 227 range...
