Eastern Canada Superchargers

What was the temperature and your battery level when you saw 163 km/h charge rate? I have seen supercharging rates ramp up for a while before tapering down, when I arrived after a 2 hour drive on a cold day, because the battery was cold. The airflow under the pack can keep it fairly cold even after a long drive.
It was chilly yes, but I also charged yesterday with no problem although the temperature was a bit warmer. But not much.
 
Don't forget that Tesla already has a presence in NS. In addition to the Dahn lab affiliation at Dalhousie University, they also have an R&D office in Dartmouth. Perhaps a supercharger would be of some use there...

I had forgotten about the Dal connection, but was reminded of it lately when I saw some news. I did not know about the Dartmouth R&D lab though. Amazing. I should move back home and get a job.

You saw 112 kW on your 70D? Seems very unlikely. I thought the max for a 70 pack was closer to 96kW.

I realize this isn't news but now that "I" have to drive from Toronto to Halifax on February 26, I realize what a gaping hole in Supercharger coverage New Brunswick is.

I plan on cutting through Maine and overnighting in Moncton (if I can make it). I have the adapter so Truro's Chademo option is welcome.

Good news for everyone else, a Supercharger has always opened just AFTER I needed it. So, perhaps Elon will surprise is with one. :p
