    Hurricane Irma

    Thanx Steve. I was not aware that St Petersburg escaped the worst. I was following Irma via news here in Norway and had the impression that the Tampa Bay area would be very heavily flooded, but I guess that was estimates before Irma actually arrived - and then the hurricane did not get as...

    Hurricane Irma

    I am sorry to have to post a "luxury" problem in this thread so please bear with me. My family have tickets to fly to Miami the 30th of September and return from Orlando on the 7th of October. We do not yet have any hotel booked. We booked our flights some months before Irma came along...

    Rent a Tesla in Florida?

    Still hoping for a better alternative. It seems Turo is more geared towards people looking for a "one day experience", hence the high prices. 369USD and up for one day in an X is eXpensive. Looking for either a few days pick up/return in Miami, or Orlando. Or a full week Pick up Miami, return...

    Rent a Tesla in Florida?

    We are a family of 4 (2 kids: 16 and soon 11) going to Florida on a 1 week vacation this fall. As our model S is to large and heavy to pack we are looking for a X or S for rent. Frankly, cruising around Florida in a fossil car feels like a crime... So please reply with info on where to rent...

    Why people from Norway is not active here in this forum

    Norway has a very active population of Tesla Owners. The current number of members in Tesla Owners Club Norway is 1894 (paying members). The club was founded in 2013 and did also allow members to give money to the "charge fund" who so far resulted in 11 locations with 22kW chargers (1 or 2) on...

    Supercharger in Jordan

    Superchargers in Jordan From the text (Google translate) of the Manaseer facebook where they announce the 3 supercharger locations in Jordan it seems to me that the Manaseer company have bought and installed these chargers independently of Tesla. This is probably why Tesla is not listing them...

    UMC trouble on Norwegian electricity network

    I find it incredibly shortsighted by Tesla to continue handing out the original UMC after they had the "Norwegian UMC" ready. It works all over Europe while the "Normal UMC" does not work in most of Norway and parts of Belgium (and Albania). Why make it complicated and surly in the future some...

    Vacationing in Norway with a Model S

    Confirmed. You are correct. What I do not understand is why Tesla did not use ONLY the norwegian model UMC - as the norwegian model works all over Europe. While the "standard Europe UMC" does not work everywhere in Belgium and Norway (and I presume also not in Albania :) ) I would however...

    Tesla Supercharger network

    I see one problem here and that is the conflict that might arise between owners of commercial superchargers and Tesla when more free superchargers is added within reasonable distance from the commercial superchargers.

    Yep, I know it is unfair, that new superchargers are added to countries like Germany and Norway. A lot of people in northern Europe are like you awaiting the promised superchargers in Spain, Portugal, Italy, France and the route down to Turkey from Austria... In the meantime more chargers...

    Tesla Supercharger network

    Looking at the numbers (the change log at supercharge.info) it is clear that the speed of opening has really slowed down. Permits and under construction are on the same level as before. One of the explanations is the sites that are for ever under construction. In Europe it seems that Italy...

    Great to have someone from Finland here to give us more info. I wonder - do you in Finland have public access to municipal mail lists/protocols so you would be able to find if Tesla has applied for building permits or similar? There seems to be a clear idea about where the superchargers will...

    Just found info here: TFF Forum - Tesla Fahrer Supercharger in Europa that there will be a supercharger at the ABC in Toijalaa. Can anyone confirm? Any other locations in Finland that we can post as permits or under construction on Superchargers ?

    Sorry for posting in English. As a Norwegian I can barely read Dutch. I am helping maintain supercharge.info - BlueShift/Keith has delegated Europe to me. I changed status to Open yesterday as I saw the first posts showing people charging. I now see that the power must have been turned on...

    Info was a little sketchy. Digging machine arrived on site. No real proof yet in the form of Tesla marked crates. Fits with earlier info about construction start and expected opening in March so I took the chance of setting it to under construction.

    Turkey

    I would guess that you would see the shop and then the first supercharger(s) in Turkey arrive in tandem. One is not much use without the other. For the location of the shop - probably in one of Istanbul's more upscale/posh areas or suburbs. A supercharger (maybe even those simple cheats, - a...

    EU spec Supercharger

    The statement that a supercharger consists of a stack of the same chargers as in the car is true and confirmed by Tesla leadership in a talk. The number of chargers in the stack per supercharger has been growing over time as they have "upped" the supercharger capacity. It also means that a...

    Supercharger - Atlanta, GA

    There are 2 strategies for driving a model S on a roadtrip: 1: to always charge the battery to something close to max - then arrive at the next supercharger and top it back up. 2: to charge enough + a little buffer to reach the next supercharger, repeat at next supercharger The difference...

    Correct. But fear not. Go visit the Tesla store at Lade Arena (cool name - Lade is a part of Trondheim - and old name that actually means "to charge").

    Actually - supercharge.info and the Tesla motors pages have all the same sites listed. i.e. there are 57 Chinese sites on both sites. The difference is how both sites count: supercharge.info - counts all accessible Superchargers - also those at a service center that Tesla Motors does not list...

    No. If that was the factor then a lot of other 2 stalls and 1 charger sites should not be listed either. It seems that they try not to list a few locations for other reasons. The locations are the one mentioned above and the similar at the Berlin Service center. Other places they list such...

    Typical French parking. They park wherever they can. Rules are just rules - not be taken seriously. And bumpers are for pushing the other cars to make room for yours... If we go to France with our S we will never park in the city streets - and be sceptic about public parking garages too...
