How often do you encounter full SC stations? I'm sure Tesla monitors this in realtime and will expand busy nodes.

I did hear of Barstow having 4 full sets of cars waiting to charge...eeeek....16 cars ..waiting!
fortunately we drove to Vegas on the Sunday of Memorial weekend and returned the sunday after. so we only saw full stalls at Barstow but no wait.
I do not use the SC system anymore in Fremont because of overcrowding. Just charge at home and pay 0.04 / kw from 12-7
it is my understanding that Barstow is in for a major expansion soon.. Maybe Cottonwood has heard something. It seems like most complaints are about that location.
Then there is Hawthorne...
- Same 90 kW issue.
- There are many local MS owners who think it's a good use of their time to save $10 an hour on electricity.
- Going from 6 to 8 stalls seems to have helped.
- Adding the San Juan Capristrano seems to have helped the 100% charge problem heading south.
- Oxnard and Indio will help 100% charge problems in other directions soon.
- The "coming soon" map shows another LA Supercharger that should help offload Hawthorne.
Gilroy has been expanded to 10 bays.Only SC I've ever had to wait at was Gilroy before they expanded it. I've seen Barstow fill up a couple times... I've never had to wait but I've heard some horror stories of 2+ hour waits. I don't know how to do the math but I think the odds of having to wait decreases exponentially with the # of bays... so having 6 Bays vs 4 is far more beneficial than it would appear from simply adding 2 more spots. ALL SCs now have 4 bays... many have 6 or 8. Centrailia and Fremont are the only ones I know of with 10.
