Hi @DC_Wheels52 I'm on the board of a condo community in McLean and we've installed 4 chargers and are in the process of installing 6 more due to growing demand. We use Mona Electric for all our electrical needs including installing our EV chargers. Our expansion required a new transformer and...

As of yesterday, still no changes ...

Photos from today.

Woohoo! I missed the update on this thread, but stumbled upon it this evening. Additional photos from today...

Found it! Located at the Wawa on Sudley Rd off I-66 (exit 47). 8 stalls. Coming from I-66, you have to either make a U-turn at the Broken Branch Ln light, or go into the Lowe's parking lot and enter from the rear.

@Jlui83 if you are in Fairfax City, my church installed 2 Clipper Creek Level 2 chargers and solar panels! PlugShare - Find Electric Vehicle Charging Locations Near You Daniels Run Peace Church Home - Daniels Run Peace Church

I always thought the hardest part was getting the utilities to the site and power activated, but it looks like all that is missing is the Tesla hardware. The big green transformer is definitely electrified as I could hear it humming. Pics below from today.

WOW great find!!

I had a great experience. Their work and communication was excellent. Annie Wolf handled the communication during the repair process and Kris Estrella did a stellar job navigating the challenges with the insurance company that paid for the damages. I live 2 hours away and was having trouble...

Hey fellow Hokie! I think the ones you mentioned are the only Tesla Destination Chargers that I've seen in the NRV area. Most of the others in Blacksburg are J1772 public chargers. I travel to Blacksburg pretty frequently and I either stay at the Courtyard with the Tesla Destination Chargers...

Awesome! Great find!

Great seeing everyone. Awesome turnout today! Here are my photos from today's event. Special thanks to Hazel for the video. Please feel free to add your photos to this album. https://photos.app.goo.gl/VCzPGbTsSqd8Dodj6

It looks like we're going to have a great showing tomorrow! Hopefully the rain holds off. The Sheetz manager is thrilled that we'll be gathering but advised that noon on Saturday can get pretty busy with the lunch crowd. She asked that we not block traffic and suggested the areas in green below...

Here's the event page. Please RSVP if you can make it! https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/groups/19/events/190

Poll is closed and ... drum roll ... Saturday, January 5th shall be the ribbon cutting! I'll setup the event for 1/5/19 @ 12 noon for the ribbon cutting and then we can head over to The Farm Brewery at Broad Run for lunch and drinks!

Thanks for all the feedback. It's true with the holiday this weekend may not be the best both for attendance and for getting in the way of holiday travelers. I created a poll for 3 other dates. Click below to select what works for you! Haymarket, VA Supercharger Ribbon Cutting - What Date(s)...

Woohoo!!! Would a ribbon cutting this Saturday or Sunday be too early? @Lanny @Half Dollar Bill @Big Earl @jthompson @jcadman22 @andrewket

I'm working with the board of my community to install EV chargers. They should be online by the spring. The community is The Gates of McLean, in Tysons, VA. Address 1510 Spring Gate Dr. McLean, VA 22102

Pulled in with 21mi left so we critically needed a charge to get home. All stalls occupied and a line forming. And there's this guy here ICEing 1B. Granted it's one of those 30 minute general parking spots, so I give them the benefit of the doubt, get a bit creative, parallel park, and plug in...

Huh. I came across this article that was just posted yesterday ... "New Tesla Supercharger opens in Strasburg"? I've been using this location for over 3 years. o_O New Tesla Supercharger opens in Strasburg

Stopped by yesterday. Looks like Dominion Energy still needs to put in the transformer. See attached pics.

Check PlugShare. I have my home charger listed on there and have helped a couple people out over the years. I did a quick search and looks like there are quite a few options in the Williamsburg area.

Awesome! Great to start seeing locations on the I-66 corridor!

Ah, bummer. Have you tinted the rear window?

Not sure if it's a later model thing, but I have a 2015 and as long as your manually set it to fresh air intake, the jump seats stay cool. There's a label on our jumpseats indicating to do this too.

Great seeing everyone! Here are my photos from the event. Please add yours to the album if you took any! https://photos.app.goo.gl/6kvNWyAJ92gUXQdp6

Reminder! Springfield Supercharger ribbon cutting today at 11am! Bring scissors! Lunch to follow at Yard House. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/groups/19/events/147

Created an event for the ribbon cutting. RSVP here! https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/groups/19/events/147

@Half Dollar Bill - I like that idea and I'm also hearing several people who will be at the Mid-Atlantic event don't want to miss out the Springfield ribbon cutting. With that, and allowing more time for people to plan to attend, let's go with Sunday, 7/1 at 11am and lunch at 11:30am at Yard...

I would love to! But it sounded like not many could attend. Shall we take a quick poll? If we can get at least 10 interested, let's do it? Click Here for the poll ---> Springfield, VA Supercharger Ribbon Cutting

Can I propose a tentative ribbon cutting this Saturday, 6/23 at 11am, then lunch at Yard House at 11:30? @Half Dollar Bill you have the ribbon? I still have my jumbo clown scissors.

Wow. Huge thumbs up to @zambono for reporting this! I'm surprised it didn't go noticed till now. Exciting! Now, where is the Fairfax one going to go? Any permits found yet?

April meetup posted! ... DC Area Tesla Club | Tesla Motors Club Hope to see you all!

And don't forget to join the DC Area Club right here on TMC! Be on the lookout for an upcoming event this spring. DC Area Tesla Club | Tesla Motors Club Welcome to the family!

Same here. PM me if you need a charge and I'll leave the cable out for you at my house. I'm in Fairfax.

Cat! I'm in the process of getting quotes on solar. Let's compare notes. I'll shoot you an email.

In case you missed the post on the DC Area forum ... Mark your calendars for the Tesla Owners Club Mid-Atlantic February Meetup. Saturday, February 10th Starting with breakfast at 10am in Alexandria at Bob & Edith's Diner, followed by a scenic drive to Mt. Vernon, and ending for a late lunch...

Funny because I've been doing the same thing. Fairfax Corner is right around the corner (no pun intended) from my house so I stop by every now and then. I think the fenced in area is just for the construction work on that new building by the garage, but I could be wrong. I've seen on other...

Group Photo! The remaining are on Facebook and uploaded to @theflyer 's album.

@Half Dollar Bill - Will you be able to bring the ribbon cutting supplies? I have some, but my giant scissors are less than effective.

Here's the link to the event posting. DC Area Tesla Club | Tesla Motors Club Spread the word!

I might be able to make it at 8am on Sunday! @Half Dollar Bill @Lanny Would you like me to create an event in the DC Area Group?

There's an Applebee's there at the supercharger. I've been meaning to check out this place named Kind Roots Cafe, in the shopping center down the road. Their website is Welcome. Not sure if there's a path between the businesses around the supercharger and the shopping center, but you may need to...

Unfortunately we won't be able to make that weekend. We'll be with @jcadman22 NASA open house event. Sorry to miss out! Have fun!

I used Rosslyn Automotive in Merrifield. The owner was familiar with Teslas so he came out to help the inspection guy. I don't think they checked much and passed me.

Oh I missed your post earlier today @Thinkje! Just stopped by. Barriers still in place. I asked security if they would let me in to charge.... It was wishful thinking. :) The exposed wires on Saturday turns out to be for a vacuum. Pics here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/n2wlpSaDLR9aErLa2

@jcadman22 just informed me they're online! Swinging by in a few min to confirm! Unfortunately I won't be able to take off work tomorrow either for the ribbon cutting.

Stopped by around 2:30 and took some photos and video. The lights are on, on the stalls themselves so they're electrified. But barrier still up. I wonder if they're waiting for the ribbon cutting before they open it up. https://photos.app.goo.gl/FVZaEIa3LInjXLrv1 @jcadman22 - I'm free tomorrow...

Absolutely! I missed that thread. Sounds like a great plan. I haven't heard back from Tesla yet.

I'm on it! I've reached out to Tesla to see if they have any ribbon cutting plans. If not, shall we shoot for Sunday, October 1st around lunch time?
