I just hit some round numbers on my 2021 MYLR. Drove 45,000 miles, used 12,000 KW for an average 267 WH/MI rating. I'm in my early 60's so I don't have a lead foot but consistent highway speeds of 70-80 MPH. If I only used home charging at .15/kWh, it would have cost me $ 1,800 to drive the...

Hi All, I had a 2015 MS and now a '21 MY & '22 M3. A few years back my Gen 1 cable crapped out. It would pop breakers when plugged into 14-50 receptacle. Just yesterday my Gen 2 charging cable crapped out also. No green lights (or red light) show on transformer unit. I took cable to Tesla...

Seems First Energy/JCP&L is finally offering incentives to add home charging capability. Not for hardware at first read, but for electrician labor to run cabling/make connections. Also offering a .02/kWh discount for off-peak. Waited for years and hardly worth the effort.

Its June 28th. I saw that NJ approved their upcoming state budget. Any rumblings re: NJ EV ChargeUp rebate commencing July 1or thereabouts.

Hi All, I have used a Generation 1 Tesla charging cable since 2015 (2015 Model S) with 14-50 plug. Now my car is 2021 Y but I still use the old Gen 1 cable. Never had an issue. After last car software upgrade, the cable which never gets disconnected or moved started tripping the electrical panel...

My '21 Y is scheduled to receive a software update today...the problematic software U11 version. How do I prevent it from happening? I can keep adjusting the clock schedule but is there a better way?

Hi All, I just sold my '15 MS last month so free supercharging has always been available. Now I have a '21 MY with no free charging. I've read on another forum that some super charging locations are .34/kwh and someone on Long Island NY posted he pays .17/kwh. Are the fluctuations in...

Anyone have any updates on the Charge Up Tax Credit? We're 2 weeks out till July 1, the start of the fiscal year. Apparently NJ is awash in tax revenues (go figure). I've delayed my MY delivery to hopefully benefit by this tax credit. Also hoping to benefit if the Fed's raise Tesla's 200,000 car...

I'd love to see this post remain atop somehow of the Mid-Atlantic forum as it may be time sensitive. There have been posts in the past regarding whether it would be $5,000 going forward or would some pricing thresholds limit POS rebate. I do feel as we are 1/4 of the way through June, that if a...

I'm posting this in the Mid-Atlantic forum regarding a delivery truck blocking 5 out of 8 Superchargers at the newly opened charging site at the Flemington NJ WaWa. Also as the truck delivery company is NJ based, Jack & Jill Ice Cream. The truck was parked sideways blocking 5 chargers, numbers 7...

Just a rumor, but providing the link just in case US electric car incentive is rumored to increase to $10,000 in program reform - Electrek

Hi All, I've experienced an issue since roughly this past weekend. (March 13) I have a 2015 Model S 70D. It's been plugged in for the past few days. Used the car on Monday. I keep getting notifications that charging has started with car at 199 miles, stops charging at 202 miles. I have the...

Has anyone had this occur: I supercharged today, arriving at Edison NJ SC with 19 miles left. Plugged in and started charging. I look down at display after about 5 minutes and on the MCU it shows I'm at 30 Miles. Yet below the battery display, it shows I've added 29 miles, the larger number...

I ordered a Model Y on May 14. At that point the Tesla factory was just set to reopen on May 18th. The sales rep said to expect 10-14 weeks, possibly longer due to scaling up once again. I thought that would be perfect as the NJ Rebate should have been up/running by late July/August. Today, 3...

Hi All, Yesterday I used the Atlantic City/Egg Harbor superchargers. Kept receiving error messages saying unable to charge. Tried three separate chargers before calling Tesla. They showed all 8 of the superchargers were available and there were no problems with any. They recommended making an...

I know I rely on the Midlantic group rather than nation or worldwide. Sorry but I always get great responses here. Each morning when I get in car my screen shows navigation to my "work" address. In my case its not my work address but another location. What is odd is that I don't request it. It...

I’m experiencing a bit of a quandry. I have a 2015 Model S 70D. (Initial top range 240 Miles, now approx. 228 Miles at 100%. Amazing car, love it but recently it has been rendered all but useless for anything beyond short trips based on software updates that decreased range and worse, the...

I thought to post this in the larger S forum but figured the Mid-Atlantic region would reflect better the SuC's in this area plus same weather conditions. I've found over the past several weeks that whether I'm at a full or relatively empty SuC location, my 2015 S 70D has been charging way...

Tesla is opening a rare new Supercharger V3 station - Electrek

I have a 2015 S70D and have been charging at my home for past 4 years via 14-50 connection. Today I plugged in at home and I'm maxed at 32A(24 mi/hr) versus what I've always received 40A (29-30 mi/hr). Was there a software update that now limits charging rate? On a side note, I recently charged...

To any admin. Is it possible on these forums to have a sticky which remains close to the top of the forum for recommended locations in the NJ or PA (or any other locale) for services. So I want to find a touchless car in NJ, or window tinting, or detailers/protective film appliers, these service...

I tried this on main forum with nary a response. Perhaps the Mid-Atlantic group which experiences bad weather is more conducive. Good morning all. I searched the forums and perhaps due to odd choice of search words I may be resurrecting something already discussed. When I turn on the climate...

At times removing the supplied power cord from the car is sticky. Does anyone use lubricant on the connections? If so, success? Recommendations? Does anyone lightly sand (very fine grit) the connection to remove any burrs from being dropped or banging around truck? Any advice

Hi All, Advice please. I called Tesla Main HQ to request cancelling my M3 order. I didn't have a VIN assigned, order form was RN (reservation # only.) I received an email back stating reply to email with reason for cancelling. Gave me a choice of line items as reasons. I opted after seeing many...

I'm seeing sometime in 2018 (unlikely) a Supercharger in Roxbury NJ. In the scheme of things that is spitting distance from the approved Parsippany NJ location. Does anyone have more info? Did I miss a thread?

I was doing a long distance trip from Buffalo back to New York I stopped at the supercharger in Erwin New York. Temps 83 degrees. My car is 2015 70D with 240 rated miles. Display showed 242 miles/hour charging but only 40 KW With 50 minutes to charge 62 more miles. Can 40KW charge at a rate of...

Found these two chargers at a place I own a unit in North Beach Plantation in North Myrtle Beach. No mention of it from Mgmt... just there when I pulled in. Inside parking garage, ground floor, left side

Is there a way to post the definitive method for not selecting a SuperCharger where power sharing occurs, and you become the secondary user, and post it as a sticky so it appears at top of forum? At least as a sticky, it can be one of the first things read. Stall 1A occupied, avoid stall 1B or...

I follow multiple sites to remain current. Teslarati lists a supercharger opening in Norway a month ago; Baker CA opening 2 months ago. Does it seem the pace of new superchargers opening is at a crawl when with the M3 hitting the streets it should be ramping up much faster. I've also noticed...

Question for those on the forum, especially those who use Blink and/or Chargepoint charging stations. I tested a few chargers local to my home (Somerset County NJ along I-78) with disappointing results. I used Chargepoint at Raritan Valley College, (Card required/free to use) and found the...

I used the HOV lanes on the LIE Monday. I also used the Syosset supercharger and saw a beautiful MS with an ugly green pass decal on the lower front. It seemed sacrilege! Is that decal a requirement for using HOV/Green Pass lanes or do Nassau & Suffolk police know Tesla's are fine?

I was at a golf outing in Saint James New York which is on the north shore of Long Island. When I connected to the mapping system in the car to locate local superchargers it provided me one Long Island in Syosset which was fine It also provided three chargers in Greenwich Connecticut and...
