    Supercharger - Kennesaw, GA

    I just went by and talked with a technician. The delay is because the wrong size transformer was installed. He indicated it should be corrected bytoward the end of next week.

    I've been gone 30 days up to Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island and thought it would be finished. Went by on the way home and the transformer is in, but still no power

    Supercharger - Kennesaw, GA

    There are 12 chargers. One was behind the cabinets and one wasn't installed when I took the photos last week.

    Supercharger - Kennesaw, GA

    Chargers are installed. I see only 10 so far. No transformer yet.

    Supercharger - Kennesaw, GA

    Cabinets are installed, the base for chargers have been laid, no prefab installation. My estimate is the chargers will be operational by mid Aug if there are no delays in remaining equipment and transformer installation.

    Supercharger - Kennesaw, GA

    Looks like more than 8. They have two parking areas fenced off. I am guessing 12 or 20. I'll go by again after lunch to find out. Don't why my 2 pictures didn't attach. I'll try again.

    2021+ MX tires questions - anyone doing same size for all 4 tires?

    I am considering replacing the 265/45-20 front and 275/45-20 rear with 255/50-20 so I can rotate tires and provide a softer ride. I have used Pirelli Verde A/S plus II twice and normally get around 50,000 miles before replacing. I do mostly highway driving, very little city. The improve series...

    Confirmed operational. Meter box is locked so I assume the meter is installed. Tesla logo is lit.

    Supercharger - Woodstock, GA

    12 is correct. The picture shows one that is obstructed by the charger in the middle of the photo.

    Superchargers 99% finished. Transformer meter still missing. Everything else appears complete.

    The superchargers are located at the south end of the outlet mall.

    Went by today and ask the Holiday Inn staff including on duty manager and they have no clue or information about the supercharger installation.

    Supercharger - Adairsville, GA

    Almost complete. Transformer in place. No meter in plain sight, however I believe it would go in either the stainless steel cabinet next to the transformer or a box on the side of the transformer with a brass lock seen in the picture with the transformer stepdown voltages. Don't know if cables...

    Supercharger - Jasper, AB

    My 2016 MX has a 100% max range of 257 miles when new. After 90,000 miles my 100% range is now only 243 miles. I had planned for only a one day trip. The nearby L2 chargers around Lake Louise are not public and did not want to drive at 55-60 mph. I'll have to wait next time and upgrade to a...

    Supercharger - Jasper, AB

    Fantastic! It will be a challenge to reach Jasper from Canmore or Golden. Another supercharger is needed especially the models with less than 300 mile range. Tesla findus doesn't show any new planned construction. What are the possible locations? In 2019 I could not safely make it to the...

    Supercharger - Marietta, Ga

    I have driven to exit 306 in Adairsville and I didn't think there were any good locations for superchargers. I drove through Calhoun yesterday. I thought the Love's Travel Stop would be a good location because Love has partnered with Tesla for supercharger locations in TX and AL. Love's is...

    Something strange. If these are V3 chargers, why are the stalls numbered 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, etc?
  25. ScooterJim

    Supercharger - Marietta, Ga

    Yes, it looks like it ready. Could not find the meter. It wasn't on the outside of the green cabinet. Transformer is installed and pavement is painted. White cabinets still covered.

    City inspector said the guys in the picture above are from the utility, and they installed the meter. He also said Tesla workers were calibrating the electrical equipment after his inspection. So, it should be soon. If it doesn't show up soon, type in "House of Ma", the superchargers are...

    Supercharger - Emporia, KS

    I sent the city inspector one of the picture with workers. Those may be his guys. He replied: "We did a final on the Tesla superchargers Tuesday afternoon, so they should be up and pumping electricity." Now waiting for Tesla techs to do their testing.

    Supercharger - Emporia, KS

    City building inspector replied "We usually have to inspect before the electrical company sets the meter but during this pandemic I am not sure what they will do." Therefore, the contractor has not asked for an inspection yet. Why, no clue, but the inspector will email me when the contractor...

    Supercharger - Emporia, KS

    @BestyS, It is just his guess. He doesn't have any hard facts. The city inspector is waiting for the contractors to notify his office they are ready for the inspection. After the inspection, he'll notify Tesla. He won't know when the chargers are operational until Tesla actually finishes their...

    Hi y'all. I am the one who found the permit and lived in Emporia 30 years ago. Now I live in Atlanta metro area. When I was in Emporia this summer, I asked the owner of Applebees if he was interested in allowing Tesla to build superchargers on their property and he said yes. I found out the...

    Tesla Supercharger - Acworth GA

    My suspicious has been validated. I arrived today with 104 miles, plugged into 5A and kW ramped up to 94kW and stayed there until around 140 miles. A fairly new X100D (4 month old) pulled up to pedestal 3B with 46 miles. I asked the driver to check his kW after charging stabilized. The energy...

    I submitted comments (complained) to Technical Support - Energy Products that most of the Superchargers that are shown open on this website since Aug 16 are not shown on Tesla.com/findus

    Tesla Supercharger - Acworth GA

    Well, I logged into Plugshare and manually entered the description for 12 Tesla Superchargers. However, it only shows one station, then found out that only Plugshare manager can enter the Superchargers. See how long it takes for Plugshare to update their website.

    I called Tesla tech support early this morning to report the issue with charger 1, 3, 4, & 5. The tech support center in Montreal, Canada answered. They said the Acworth SCs don't exist and could not help because it is not on the Tesla website (Tesla.com/findus) or Plugshare. I asked them to...

    Tesla Supercharger - Acworth GA

    I performed an experiment last night. I sampled each of the numbered pedestal (either A or B). No other cars were charging. I started with a SOC of about 40% (105mi of 259mi). I found that initial kW went to 92kW in all of the pedestals, but on pedestal 1, 3, 4, & 5 the kW quickly decreased...

    Looking for feedback from owners who have used these chargers. I have an X90D with 58,000 miles and most of these miles are on the interstate. I have charged here 3 times in the last 30 days. Each time my SOC was around 35% charging to between 60-80%. Each time the steady state charging kWh...
