ABRP has 68% for a 2021 LR (actually my own car's consumption profile) and 91% for a 2021 SR+. Earlier SR+, speed restricted to max 90km/hr. So definitely a bit touch and go in an earlier SR+. Just need a headwind to kybosh things.....

I think it's a given that they are also planning a site at Nyngan in the future - maybe the location hasn't been locked down yet.
And this is why it might be a while before I can be convinced to take the family on a road trip where we would be relying on these 1 stall charging towns.
Nyngan looks to be 1 stall, all these to Broken Hill are one stall?
Is that one of the towns that was hit with flooding?
Looks like 1 stall or 10 wouldn’t make much difference in this instance.

It can be a leap of faith when you head out to the next charger and you cross the line of no return back to the previous one. Things are slowly improving but mainly along the east coast. The further west you go the more of an 'adventure' it becomes.
Narrandera is also giving problems.
Does anyone publish uptime stats? I don't think Plugshare is much of a guide but perhaps some alternative brands of charger such as ABB or Kempower could be brought into the mix to give Tritium a bit of competition in the Oz market.
True, that would be the least of our troubles in that case.
Point still stands in general though.

Yes the Lachlan is in flood impacting Cowra and Forbes.
But the NRMA charger is in the centre of town which is pretty much a high point, so doubt it's related, unless there are more general power outages.
Yes absolutely agree in general regarding single stall sites. Very high risk of being stranded, especially in rural areas.
Since the government is now providing grants to 3rd parties who roll out chargers, I think they should set a couple of conditions to qualify for taxpayer $.
1) Each site must be a minimum of 2 stalls
2) Real time status of chargers must be accessible online by the public.
The local supply may be impacted, or the substations may be down or running in disaster protection mode etc.
Hello folks. Greetings from a wintry (yes, it's down to a frigid 12°C right now) Central Valley of northern California, USA. Take a look at this (Tesla Ports & Plugs of the World) and make sure I haven't buggered up the info for Australia (in the notes). Fortunately, I can revise the table and notes if need be.
Before I started I had no idea that worldwide Tesla charging was so diverse. I'm not an electrician or engineer. But I guess that part of the reason may be due to different electrical grid equipment and standards used in different regions (120v at households in the US and Canada, 230v in Europe, 220v in China, 230v in Australia, etc.).

That all looks correct to me, with the very slight caveat that Model 3 has always had the CCS2 connector from the first ones delivered in Australia / New Zealand.

Looks like Coonamble and Walgett have gone live according to the NRMA map!
(Plugshare hasn’t caught up yet…)
