    Stadia Controller may work with Tesla's now

    Updated my Stadia controller and tried pairing a with a Model X and a Model 3 and neither could see it when searching for a new device.

    Supercharger - Alameda, CA (LIVE 15 Dec 2018, 12 stalls)

    There is some construction going on next to the chargers. Adding V3 maybe?

    Model S in a non-Tesla country

    My wife and I have been considering retiring in Costa Rica in 5 years (maybe) and bringing our MX and M3.

    Lowballed on trade-in from Tesla

    I got lowballed on my S when I moved up to the X a few years ago. Carmax offered me thousands more so I sold the S to them

    Clean your solar panels!

    Not only do we lack rain in CA in the summer but ash from any forest fires also settles on the panels. When we got our first heavy rainstorm earlier this year, I could smell the ash that was being rinsed off the roof and panels from the fires at the end of last year.

    Can I convert NEMA 5-15 to NEMA 6-20

    The quote I got last year was also a little over $3k. Only had 5-15 in the garage but its a 20 amp circuit so I switched one outlet to 5-20. The increase in charging speed to ~5 mph for the MX and ~7 mph for the M3 has been more than adequate for us. I don't see a need to spend the money...

    Supercharger - San Francisco, CA - Letterman Drive (LIVE 22 May 2019, 6 urban stalls)

    I stumbled across this tonight in the app and confirmed it in my car: Supercharger San Francisco - Letterman Drive, 6 Urban stalls

    Just completed a 16 hour grid outage simulation. I'm very pleased.

    Don't let them talk you out of getting two. The sales guy convinced me to just get one PW instead of two and now I regret it. Especially since the price pf PWs have gone up.

    Anyone got their CA "purple" stickers yet?

    Mailed mine in early January, check was just cashed today.

    Supercharger - Emeryville, CA - Powell Street Plaza (LIVE 28 Mar 2020, 12 V3 stalls)

    The Oakland one has been there a while. I'd guess it ends up in a parking garage in some of the new construction going up. I'd prefer a location like the rooftop parking at the Safeway at Broadway/Pleasant Valley.

    Software Update 2018.39.5 a1c2332 (first 9.0 release)

    Because its not a flat wall in front. Its a combination of stuff combined with stairs. There is a lip that would stop the tires but with my old S I was concerned about the clearance. Not really a concern with the X now but I think it could still hit something. I'm also more paranoid about the...

    Software Update 2018.39.5 a1c2332 (first 9.0 release)

    We have a winner. The AP1 MS got the V9 update first. Just in time for me to sell it. Thanks. Just confirmed it too.

    Software Update 2018.39.5 a1c2332 (first 9.0 release)

    Having the rear camera on while driving makes me nauseated. But I do need it to make sure I'm parked far enough forward in my garage, especially in the MX. Why hang a tennis ball from the ceiling when the rear camera does the job? My preferred driving layout is the map on top and the energy...

    Software Update 2018.39.5 a1c2332 (first 9.0 release)

    We got a new MX last weekend. It came with 32.7 and hasn't gotten any update yet. Our M3 and AP1 MS are still on 36.2. Whichever gets updated first will help add to the metrics of update priority.

    Cameras not picking up speed limit

    My MS AP1 definitely read speed limit signs. It changed the moment it crosses a new sign. I've seen a temporary speed limit sign go up for construction on a route I drive daily and it changed the speed in the car as soon as it passed the sign. Unfortunately it sometimes also misread school...

    Supercharger - San Ramon, CA (expanded to 16 V2 stalls)

    It looks like it must be working because I saw them all in use on the in-car nav today.

    Supercharger - San Ramon, CA (expanded to 16 V2 stalls)

    Stopped by at noon today and only 2 other cars were charging since it's not on the in-car nav yet. When I left there were more charging but still multiple open spots. I drove past Dublin on my way out and saw at least one car waiting. I hadn't been in that shopping center in a few years so I...

    Top 10 Superchargers based on Tesla screen at Kettleman City and other locations

    I passed by Dublin just now and could see at least one of the stalls was out of service.

    Top 10 Superchargers based on Tesla screen at Kettleman City and other locations

    Dublin *sometimes* has a lull around 10-11am and/or around 2pm during the week. Especially after Concord opened. Once I got there around 11am and was the only car charging. I walked up to Safeway and by the time I got back there was a line.

    Supercharger - Fremont, CA - 47400 Kato Rd (not completed, V3 test site Mar 2019)

    Just got the email below. I wonder if this is to facilitate opening a SC there instead or to help open this one. Or it could be unrelated. Hello, The Tesla Service Team wanted to let you know that as of Friday 6/8/2018 we will be moving to a new location. Don't worry, it's less than one mile...

    Supercharger - Alameda, CA (LIVE 15 Dec 2018, 12 stalls)

    I know multiple Tesla owners in Alameda, including my brother and many of his close neighbors. He always talks about another street where you can see even more Tesla owners. He can confirm the difficulty of the permit process. When he got solar panels the permitting process took quite a while...

    Supercharger - Napa, CA (EXPANDED Jun 2018, 12 V2 stalls)

    I got used to back-in parking in my ICE SUV days. I found it easier to park a 4-wheel drive vehicle back-in than front-in. And definitely safer when leaving the spot since the back of the vehicle was so long. And that was before rear cameras were a thing. With the hi-res camera, huge screen...

    Supercharger - Dublin, CA - Amador Plaza (LIVE, 14 V2 stalls)

    I left there around 2pm on Thursday and if I'm recalling correctly it was almost full. A few people must have left right after I did. It has seemed slightly less busy since Concord opened, at least around lunchtime on weekdays when I'm most likely to be there. I'm only there maybe once or twice...

    Superchargers in Northern California (location speculation)

    Hopeful speculation about the 2nd Supercharger planned for Napa. They are doing construction on the public parking lot at the corner of Pearl and West St next to the existing Chargepoint level 2 chargers. The construction looks a little different that what I'd expect if they were building more...

    Supercharger - Fremont, CA - Tesla Factory (LIVE, 4 V2 + 8 V3 stalls)

    They don't even have enough room for employee parking. The other Fremont SC will take some of the pressure off.

    Guestimating Tesla "invitation to configure" heuristic

    I'm a Model S owner in California with a reservation made in line. I have not received my invitation yet. I bought my Model S months after making the Model 3 reservation so hopefully I still get "current owner" priority.

    POLL - Glass Roof

    I was previously anti-glass roof. I got one of the last Model S that you could still get with a solid roof and AP1 hardware. But after test driving a Model X I can see I was 100% wrong. I'm 6'5" and have to lean forward to see traffic lights when I'm near the front of the line. In the Model X...

    Looks like the new stalls are ready to be turned on. Also I captured the rare mid-day lull in Dublin (it was full shortly after I left) ).
