    Supercharger - Chillicothe, Ohio

    I drove by after dark on Thurs Aug 27. The pedestals were still dark, but park of the fence had been dismantled.

    Updated pictures from August 1st. Looks like the concrete work is completed.

    Footwell lighting issue

    I had lighting on the list in October, but I hadn't typed out about the issue, and forgot to mention it to the Service Center that day. I did however list it at the end of December when I took Sylvia in for new taillights. They were able to find the problem and solution. It seems there was...

    Footwell lighting issue

    The lights turned off on their own on the 22nd and hadn't come back on while driving until tonight. I was more than halfway into my drive home from work when I noticed they were on again. Both the 21st and today the weather had been rainy in the morning. Not sure if that indicates there is...

    Footwell lighting issue

    I did a search on "footwell lighting" to see if others had this issue. I found a lot of people seem to want the lights to be on while driving. Well, this evening my car had the footwell lighting turn on while driving, and I am pretty sure it was not any kind of update allowing it. Both the...

    Supercharger - Parkersburg, WV

    I know it sounds strange for one to not be used for a couple of days, but even though there were a few of us looking towards this charger to get off the I70 route, I'm not sure how many people really use the US 50 route. Cambridge, OH to Charleston, WV is less than 140 miles, most traveling...

    Supercharger - Parkersburg, WV

    That line should have read if you were traveling "WEST" on US 50.

    Supercharger - Parkersburg, WV

    Stopped at the Parkersburg charger tonight. Very nice having this charger up and running. If I read the meter correctly, I appear to be the first car that charged for any length of time. A couple quick notes, if traveling east on US 50, and getting off at Staunton Turnpike, you will want to...

    Supercharger - Morgantown, WV

    I noticed earlier this week the Morgantown SC no longer showed "Reduced Service" I stopped tonight, 3A appears to be working normally. Started at over 110kW when I pulled in. Please note the snow removal team has completely blocked the pull in charger 1A. slots 3B and 4A are pretty much...

    Supercharger - Parkersburg, WV

    Yay! Good timing for my next trip to OH this weekend. Looking forward to having this route available again, no matter the weather, and without sitting in Morgantown for over an hour.

    Supercharger - Parkersburg, WV

    I had a friend that was driving through the area stop last night and take a look at the progress. The fence is down, his pictures were hard to see, but the construction equipment looks gone. There does not appear to be power yet, and pedestals are not numbered.

    Supercharger - Morgantown, WV

    My experiences at the Morgantown SC were specifically issues with the charger. The issue was very similar to the Dickson, TN issues where at times you could get a slow charge, but it would fluctuate during the charge and turn off periodically. I did notice that last week on my drive from DC to...

    Supercharger - Morgantown, WV

    I've had some issues at this charger in the past, but had also found that leaving the car plugged in, it would normally start back on its own. It has been a couple months since I last stopped at this charger, I've been skipping from Tridelphia to La Vale using US 40 shortcut to save miles...

    Supercharger - Parkersburg, WV

    You all made me so happy to see this thread. I agree with Dragonetti and Poonlarp, this will make my trips from southern OH to DC much nicer and quicker as well. I was able to barely make it from Morgantown to my parents place on a dry, warm day (227 miles between the two). The few times I...

    Supercharger - Dickson TN

    I stopped at the Dickson charger on Sat April 28. Charger 2A worked fine, talked to the lady at the hotel desk, she said they had been out a couple days before to fix it. I didn't need to stop on May 1 when I headed back east so not sure if it was still working normally at that time.

    Please help! “Vehicle Connection Error”

    Not sure if your issue was completely resolved for you, or if it is similar to what I have experienced. Sylvia is a 2014 regular 85 with no AP functionality. I have periodically had issues connecting to Sylvia, sometimes it is at the house, sometimes it is when at a supercharger, or other...

    Supercharger - Dickson TN

    I stopped at this charger on March 3. On the in car nav it shows as reduced service. If I tried to navigate to it, the system would alert me and say temporarily closed/reduced service. I only needed to stop to provide a bit of a cushion. It took it a few minutes to start charging, then was...

    Supercharger - Grasonville, MD

    I was pleased when I saw the trash bins and squeegees here this evening. First time I have seen a Supercharger that had those services. I'll see if suggesting those at Sheetz locations get the same results.

    Supercharger - Dickson TN

    That is an improvement in a way. At least people are aware that there could be an issue, so they can charge more at Jackson or Cookeville. Though I don't think most people can make it between Jackson and Cookeville without stopping here or in Brentwood.

    Supercharger - Lewes, DE

    I was heading to Chincoteague Island this weekend and noticed that the SC is listed as temporarily closed on the in-car nav. I might swing by that way in a couple days when leaving just to see.

    Supercharger - Chester, VA

    Stopped here today. The Wawa is still closed. I went across the street to the Italian restaurant. I arrived with under 40 miles of charge and Sylvia stated I needed to be there 50 minutes. The restaurant was decent and I was back to the car right on time.

    I haven't met him. I posted some information on the Dickson, TN supercharger thread and he replied, then pointed me to this thread. I did have to break the log jam at 46. So I decided for a last minute trip to VA beach. I also noticed, I'm not that far away from first place for those listed...

    I did miss one. GA - Decatur. Thanks for the double check. While I would like to be able to make a run at the leaderboard, give the guys a run for their money. I don't think it will be possible. I'm mostly limited to road-trips on two or three day weekends. Though I could head to the NE...

    I'm new to posting for this list (Plus EV alerted me to it yesterday). I picked up Sylvia my 2014 S85 on 16 Jan 2017. She had 37,306 miles when I picked her up. Now showing 108,523 miles, at the 13 month mark. Most of my charging has been at home, so despite the large number of miles in a...

    Supercharger - Dickson TN

    I have seen other chargers marked with degraded service (or something like that) in the past. I mentioned to the Tesla rep when I reported it that it would have been nice if it had been marked. I would have sat at Cookeville longer as I can potentially make it from Cookeville home as it is a...

    I'll have to do that. Thank you. Gotta hunt up that original list of places we stopped at. update* After making my listed it looks like I have been to 46 chargers, though I need to go confirm with the car that I have them all listed. Kinda disappointed, was hoping to have over 50 at least...

    Supercharger - Dickson TN

    I was the only car at the station. I tried stalls 1B, 2B, 3A and 4B. I called Tesla after I received the same 1-6KW max on 3A. When she stated it was power coming into the Supercharger that was the issue and that there was nothing Tesla could do about it. She also stated she didn't have any...

    Supercharger - Dickson TN

    I stopped here on Feb 3, the Superchargers were barely functioning. I called Tesla to report, they stated the location has had multiple incoming power issues since opening and there was nothing they could do for it. I spoke to the Hotel they were going to report it. I only had 30 miles of...

    Supercharger - Greensboro, NC

    Stopped Friday Dec 22. Got a lot of attention. I have noticed that at other locations when the chargers are first activated that for a few weeks it is a novelty to others about the cars. Also usually get a few questions at all the Sheetz locations. Was glad to have the charger, coming down...

    Supercharger - Mt Jackson, VA

    I agree with you on the options to pick different series of chargers to stop at. When I'm heading down to TN from the DC area after work it will allow me to skip the Strasburg charger. I was about 10 miles short of charge to make it to Lexington even in the best weather conditions. Though at...

    Supercharger - Mt Jackson, VA

    After the Martinsburg, WV Supercharger was found under construction without any indication on the Tesla web site as a Coming Soon location. I went to the Sheetz website and drove around to a couple of the spots the Sheetz site had EV Charger marked. I didn't find any evidence that day of...

    Supercharger - Martinsburg, WV

    I've driven up and down 81 a good number of times this year. The Lexington charger is about 110 miles from Strasburg, if going straight down 81. If you add the length of Skyline Drive in, you are looking at closer to 155 miles. I typically charge to 135-150 miles depending on the season for...

    Supercharger - Dickson TN

    Details no longer shows Opening Soon. Details look like any other functional charger. I was hoping the Cookeville charger would be functional soon, but I think I can make it between here and Knoxville, will just be a long stop either way until Cookeville is active. Either way, I will save the...

    Supercharger - Morgantown, WV

    plumazul, I'm with you on never using the Penn Turnpike again. I was thrilled a couple weeks ago when I was able to use this charger. I was very pleased when it showed up on the Tesla site as being Open, that means I don't have to worry about whether it will be on or not when I'm headed there.

    Tesla Navigation is Terrible.

    I must have missed this. How can I have it avoid toll roads? Now that a couple other chargers are up and running I don't regularly drive near a toll, but would be nice to know. Mostly I drive with the car only showing traffic flow. I don't use the actual Nav very often, unless checking...

    Supercharger - Morgantown, WV

    I was very happy this charger was available this past weekend. With my old ICE car the trip from my parents in OH to my place in WV would take 6.5-7 hrs. When having to go through Wheeling and PA that increased the time to 8 hours. I made it from the house to Morgantown, 227 miles, left with...

    BunkerDude, thank you for the confirmation. I was sitting in La Vale when I saw your post that it was working. We'll see if I can make the distance to my parents place. Fingers crossed.

    Supercharger - Morgantown, WV

    If it winds up being a day when I'm back and forth through there, I'm in too. If it isn't ready this weekend, I'll just stop at La Vale, then to Cambridge OH (or Tridelphia WV as I currently do). But I like the sound of the meter arriving today. Even when this charger gets up and running...

    I'm hoping it will be ready by this weekend. Not counting on it though. Morgantown, WV and Cookeville, TN are the two I'm currently anxiously awaiting.

    Supercharger - Morgantown, WV

    I tested the La Vale one this morning, making a trip to OH from the DC area next weekend. If Morgantown is open by then I will be able to take I79 to US 50, saving a bunch of miles. With the La Vale one open, that lets me to avoid the PA Turnpike which is really nice.

    Supercharger - La Vale, MD

    I have a similar picture of Sylvia and I there this morning. I had to test it out to make sure it was ready for my trip to OH next weekend. I also stopped by a Sheetz in Frederick that according to the Sheetz website has an EV Charger, but I didn't see one.

    Supercharger - Cookeville, TN

    With the location of it in the parking lot, it doesn't appear that it interferes in anyway with the businesses customer parking. There did seem to be some employee parking for one of the companies near that area, so maybe that is the problem.

    New to the Tesla Family! What is/was your first Tesla road trip?!

    First road trip was also the first trip in general. Flew to Vegas from Ohio to pick Sylvia up on Jan 16, 2017. Started the drive from Vegas to Tennessee the next day (driving around the black hole of Arkansas since the Little Rock charger didn't exist yet). Arrived in TN 3.5 days later, onto...

    Supercharger - Cookeville, TN

    I will stop in at this location Friday just to see. I had been hopeful, when shortly after my last TN to DC trip this article showed up and the charger looked so close to done, that the charger would be active by my next trip. It doesn't look like it will be, but it should still be completed...

    I was going to go hunting for this location this coming weekend when I'm in the area for the eclipse. I will stop out and get some updated pictures though. This one will replace the Brentwood charging stop for me on the way from DC to my home in west TN. When the Cookeville charger opens it...

    I wasn't able to get any decent pictures on the way through Friday night, hopefully on Sunday the weather will cooperate a little better and I'll gt some pictures. There is a lot of work in progress but the charger is far from done.
