It might be a coincidence but my screen kept slowing down and becoming unresponsive after setting up teslamate. I tried turning it off and the screen has been fine ever since.

I have an S and a 3 and find the 3 A/C is very underpowered in the 3 compared to the S. You either need to turn the fan up manually or the temperature down to 16 or 17 on auto to get it to cool properly.

If you have trouble uploading the secondary registrant's licence photo, try switching to the US site. Seems like a bug that has been around for over a year!

I’ve had the car lock with the keys and my phone inside previously so would never trust it to remain unlocked again despite what others are saying.

Elon just re-confirmed middle of next year for RHD model 3 Elon Musk on Twitter

3B was only charging at 22kw for me on January 2 and January 10, no other cars there.

I'm using it right now with the Chademo adapter. The cable won't reach without pulling into the space in front a bit which isn't marked as a charging space. It meant getting as close as possible to the car in front without touching it.

Charging now.

I went through Euroa today, the new supercharger looks finished but is still fenced off.

I beat you by 2 day, but only posted to the TOCA Facebook and slack. TOCA also tweeted - Tesla Owners Club AU on Twitter

My car maxed out at 32kw on one charger last night at St Leonards. Moving to another fixed it.

The Hamilton supercharger is up on the map now.

Yes that was me. I also used St Helens wharf, but I think someone on the AEVA Tasmania Facebook group said that someone unplugged them there, do I didn't add it.

Have you looked at the map of destination chargers on the tesla site? There should be plenty of options. I can recommend the airbnb near port Albert.

If you have the 3 phase adapters you could try bellingen showground. They have 3 phase sockets but I don't know if they will want you to pay, etc.

More likely Cooma

Where did you get the Latitude and Longitude from?

A few of us have used Cooma showground. I sent an email asking if there was any problem with us using it or if there was any way they wanted us to pay. I got a reply saying they would get back to me, but that was about 6 months ago. So it's only on the slack group map and not plugshare because...

If you don't have any charging equipment you could probably stay overnight between Ballina and Port Macquarie and get enough charge on the UMC to make it to the supercharger. Then stop at the Hunter Wetlands Centre near Newcastle who have the correct cable on site. Having a 3-phase adapter to...

If the Chademo is for Canberra, @the_dude on the Slack group should be able to lend his to you his when you pass through. Otherwise you could probably buy one in Sydney.

That's odd, Marc Talloen charged at Strahan Village using their 3 phase sockets for the industrial dryers, and I used 10A from inside the hotel room. As long as you're there for more than 1 night 10A should be fine anyway.

I'm currently charging at SSSH's new charger. Getting 57km/h on single chargers. Thanks SSSH! I'll post some photos later.

Great news! We may be heading that way on a Saturday, is it accessible outside business hours?

If you're starting on 90% there should be no need to stop in Goulburn. I did Sydney-Canberra in the very wet conditions last weekend in my 85D starting at about 95% and arrived with about 10%.

Ah 6.2 would have been the version when I got my car in October. I only found out about that feature because someone (maybe Kayto) mentioned it on the whatsapp group back then.

Hasn't it always worked like that, or am I missing something? It was the same in 6.1 when I got my car.

It's been open since about mid December I think. I used it back then and the carpark was still undergoing some refurbishment, but it was all finished today when I went in.

You can also order a pre-made cable from evnomics.com.au. I'd also recommend anyone who's attempting journeys outside the supercharger network to join the slack group so you can have real time assistance along the way: Whatsapp Group is migrating to Slack!!

No idea, it would be good to find out from Launceston council of they added the socket or if they came like that. If it is standard then there might be more around elsewhere.

Keith, South Australia I found this: https://www.tatiara.sa.gov.au/webdata/resources/minutesAgendas/20160119.pdf "Tesla is proposing to build an electric charging station to accommodate 4 parking spaces plus an additional area to accommodate infrastructure. They recently engaged a network...

I forgot to add a map of the route we took. The markers are the areas we stayed. I also forgot to add this photo of the MONA destination charger - blocked by workers setting up for a You Am I concert, so I couldn't charge. Luckily I had already reached 80% overnight so didn't really need to...

No, surprisingly the Hobart Central Carpark isn't on there yet. I'm pretty sure the Tasmania AEVA would have already submitted it. The others would need to be checked with the council/Showground management/hotel manager, etc first. I should contact a few places to see if they are happy to be...

I went to Tasmania for about 2.5 weeks over the christmas/new year period, here's some notes on the trip. Part 1: Canberra-Melbourne: Down the Hume in 40 degree heat, easy apart from a bushfire near Wodonga. Got redirected through some back roads. I dropped in to JetCharge headquarters to...

With 7.1 the range of my 85D has gone up in both typical and rated. 90% is now 375km typical (up from ~360km) and 469km rated, which is more than when I got the car in October.

Colour is definitely a personal choice, I originally ordered grey, then changed to blue as soon as it was announced because none of the previous colours were to my liking. I do sydney to Canberra regularly, as do several others. CBR-SYD is probably about 70-75% of my battery and SYD-CBR 80-85%...

That would have been my Blue car supercharging on Saturday. I love the colour, and having seen all the other colours in Bowral I still think is the best available to order at the moment (sig red is slightly better I think), but it's certainly not the same as in the rendering on the web site.

I just checked the sticker that was on my 85D and it's the same. My long term average was 216 for quite a while, but has dropped to 205 now with more long distance driving so 217 is reasonable. However 490km*217wh=106330 or 106kwh which doesn't make sense or am I missing something?

Just keep reloading. All you'll get is a call a few weeks before delivery. But you can also call for a status update, usually the delivery guys have more info than the site.

Spotted at the Realm Hotel, Canberra

I leave my car at 70% for daily use, but my theory on worrying about high or low charge states is that if it's costing you time to charge more often now instead of a potential need to do the same thing in 5 years or so then you might as well make use of the range you have now. For example I just...

Maybe they will move the equipment to Euroa for the permanent supercharger.

Maybe we need a general supercharger notices sticky thread to alert people to issues such as The Star car park being closed or broken superchargers?

I have auto lock on, but always manually lock because the auto lock is so slow that car is usually out of sight by the time it locks.

I went for a drive to Wagga Wagga on the weekend, and the routing worked both ways, sending me via Gundagai. On the way back to Canberra I left as soon as I got the notification that it had charged enough to continue. Once I got on the road it said "drive slowly to reach you destination" though...

That's the same ACT car again in Tasmania. I'd really like to find the owner to ask about where they are charging for my upcoming trip.

Announced on Facebook. Not sure about elsewhere. https://www.facebook.com/teslamotors/posts/10153714894547801

The navigation is wrong. You can just take the exit, go over the highway and drive to the service centre. You do need to drive past it then turn left and drive through/around the shell pumps, but it's nothing like what the map shows.

Aussie Yank, can you try uploading that picture again? I'm not seeing via Tapatalk or the web site.

Great news!

Friday nights seems to be the time to charge in Wodonga. Trip A is Canberra CBD to Wodonga Live music Food stalls The car park was full but nobody ICEd the supercharger spaces.
