See Damien's Supercharger Visit Log How about we start a little contest for the most Superchargers used. How about the simple rules for each claim of total with a list of those Superchargers visited and used for charging, followed by interesting factoids that you may wish to share? I'll try to keep a summary of the results on this first page. Latest Standings on the Wiki at Superchargers Visited - Tesla Motors Club - Enthusiasts & Owners Forum
Ooooo... competition... make that 3 for me. I'll be making a trip down to LA for the holidays so hope to get that number up quite a bit soon.
Gilroy, Fremont, Harris Ranch, Tejon Ranch, Folsom = 5. Soon to add Roseville (maybe, just for kicks and giggles) and Vacaville to the list.
And the leader in the Clubhouse...9! (Vacaville, Folsom, Gilroy, Harris Ranch, Atascadero, Buelton, Tejon Ranch, Barstow, Quartszite).
I'm sure there are a few with a lot more than me, but we just crossed 33,000 miles today, so we DO see a super charger every now and then. Unfortunately, or not, we were tripping long before there were SCs, starting with going to Canada and back in Oct. 2012 when it was almost new. So we have done quite a few RV parks, too. But: Harris, Barstow, Gilroy, The Mothership, Atascadero, Buellton, Corning, Vacaville and Folsom. Waiting on Roseville, and Reno! And the HPWC at Chiriaco Summit and at the Scottsdale Store and at Santana Row Store and the San Rafael Service Center. Those are sometimes important, too, if you're needing a few kW. An HPWC list might be interesting. Napa Bill and I have to split the prize for today at least. The "Mothership" is the Fremont Factory. That's Nine if we are allowed to count Fremont as a SC site.
Wait till the Washington/Oregon folks start weighing in. I've seen posts of several who have done the I-5 3-state run. That'll be 11 easy.:smile:
Lets see: (12) burlington WA centralia WA woodburn OR springfield OR grants pass OR mt. Shasta CA corning CA Fremont CA Gilroy CA Harris Ranch CA Ft. tejon CA Quartzite, AR
Only 12 for me. First 8 in CA, first 2 in WA, and first 2 in OR. Tesla has grown my todo list recently for sure.
I like this. And I don't mind the years-long head start some of you guys will have. I'm thinking, however, that Elon's Coast2Coast ought to give him the lead. And if somehow it doesn't, we give it to him anyway, for a while. Good PR for TM and then, for whoever ends up taking the lead from the leader. ML sounds like I'm already advocating fudging the numbers? I'm thinking of it more like trying to figure out how many Grateful Dead concerts I went to. Some "variables" are in play in that equation, for sure. And the exact number doesn't REALLY matter anyway.
14 for me Centralia Woodburn Springfield Grants Pass Mt Shasta Corning Folsom Gilroy Atascadero Buellton Hawthorne Harris Ranch Tejon Ranch Barstow
Good set of responses in the first five hours of reporting. Here are the current standings, also updated on the first post. Looks like TsRocket and brianman are tied for the lead at 12 each. As I predicted, until Colorado becomes connected to the grid, I am dead last. Please let me know if I made an error. Also, please self report your count with the list of Superchargers used. This is all a friendly, honor based competition. Have great fun! User Name Superchargers Used TsRocket 12 brianman 12 napabill 9 roblab 8 Jason S 5 damienvu 3 Cottonwood 2
6 for me -- Gilroy, Atascadero, Fremont, Harris Ranch, Tejon Ranch, Barstow. Was at the Vacaville SC opening today but didn't charge. Will get that one later
number of superchargers in Belgium : 0 :crying: number of superchargers visited by this Belgian : 1 :smile: (Oosterhout, The Netherlands) so my suggestion : new contest : rate of superchargers visited = #SC visited / #SC in your home-state :biggrin:
Fremont, CA Vacaville, CA Corning, CA Mt. Shasta, CA Grants Pass, OR Springfield, OR Woodburn, OR Centralia, WA
Mostly west coasters on the list. Put me down for five in the Midwest: Normal, IL, Rockford, IL, Highland Park, IL, St. Joseph, MI, and Mishawaka, IN.
Nice rule suggestion to put you in first place. To infinity and beyond! At least I am not in last place now... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- User Name Superchargers Used Odenator 14 TsRocket 12 brianman 12 napabill 9 roblab 8 bkenchan 8 waithnot 7 CalDremin 6 Jason S 5 Wattson 5 damienvu 3 Cottonwood 2 S-19910 1
So I arbitrarily divided the users into the following regions, West, Mountain, Midwest, East, Canada, and Europe. Because I could not always determine a region based on the info block, I used the list of Superchargers to infer your region. Here is the ordered list with region also listed. The West Coasters are the majority, with a strong showing from Wattson from the Midwest. I think this should still be a simple, friendly contest, but the region info is interesting to look at. BTW, the Elon route across the country will be something like 30 Superchargers used.
