I haven't seen any comment or pictures from the new SuperCharger install in Woodstock,ON. Has anyone visited that location yet? I may be heading that direction over the holiday.

I retract my previous statement....just saw some more pics of a silver one and it just doesn't pop like the white. Also, the door handles which are one of the cooler features, aren't noticeable on the silver. I like how they stand out a bit on the white.

Thank you... I was travelling and missed page 71 with all of the focus on Kingston and Barrie.
I'm under tight schedule but hope to swing by midday Thurs. If successful I will upload Thursday night.
I've been to Sudbury before in warmish weather. It was fairly close, but easily doable. My only problem was that the Sun Country charger there is only a 30a, so a full charge takes a good long while when you're dead empty.
Looks like a decent amount of amenities there, too, plus the Cedar Creek Golf & Country Club - which would be nice if you were only using a Model S HPWC, but you would just be blocking a SC Stall much longer than needed if you played round of Golf!
Also - there is East Side Mario's at 555 Norwich Avenue and Montana's Cookhouse at 511 Norwich Ave, with Kelsey's right beside them, the Heritage Pancake House at 815 Juliana Drive, and McDonald's at 499 Norwich Avenue and Swiss Chalet and Mr Sub plus a Dollar Giant Store up Norwich Ave by A&W!
Quite Likely before you got a meal at some of these restaurants - your car would be fully charged!

From other posts, Woodstock works.
i will be driving past Barrie today, and will report with some photos.
So, went past Barrie. Looks like good progress. All the stations are mounted, transformer pad is in place, and all the equipment is there. I'd guess 2 to 3 weeks left. Will post photos later.
Great location! Lots of restaurants, shopping, a Cabelas and an LA fitness.
Drove to Toronto today... via borrowed HPWC (thanks AM!) rather than Kingston. :frown: But now I'm at Lawrence getting a late-night Supercharge! First ever for Essie after two years on the road.

Its fantastic Barrie is getting a Supercharger so don't get me wrong, but this location is not ideal. Originally we thought it was going way closer to Panera Bread and other restaurants which is way behind La Fitness. Perhaps they had to move them and maybe more restaurants will be going in as the parking lot is huge! In the mean time it will be a bit of a walk through perhaps a maze of snow banks in the winter. Hopefully there will be pedestrian walkways from the charging area. I have visited level 2 chargers where I was climbing snow banks and crossing busy roads to get to restaurants. In the future for mass market adoption this won't be acceptable. For now I am just happy to have super chargers in Ontario!
some pics from tonight. Site was a bit of a mess as all the fences had blown over.

Hey, congratulations! Now you're starting to get your money's worth.
(And if you drove past Kingston, surely then it should open in the next week or two?)

We'll see if my curse holds.
