Found an article from today, it was opened behind the town hall in Glen Innes:
Electric fast charger part of the future of Glen Innes tourism
I added it to plugshare.

Lithgow's 2 stalls are apparently now open. (Not updated on Plugshare or NRMA's map yet)

At last! Looks like the Bega charger will be online next month. It will be on Gipps St in the carpark outside the Council Offices and Woolworths mall.

A bit of extra info - I notice that a lot of these dots are in rather precise locations (not just "general town centres").
Ewingsdale in particular is at "The Farm" which might sound familiar to those that have hung around these forums for a while!Supercharger - Knockrow (Byron Bay) NSW
An NRMA two-stall is now at 'The Farm'. Looks close to being live.

No - just a driveby by me yesterday evening. The pedestals are backing onto fence visible from Ewingsdale Road.
Does anyone know if Qld'ers (members of RACQ) will be able to use these chargers under a reciprocal arrangement with NRMA? I've asked both organisations but nobody seems to know anything. I know they're free now, but that won't last forever..

Bega is very close, unit is switched on but has tags saying "powering up, check back soon" on the cables.
It is not as I thought in the carpark near the Woolworths mall but up the other end of Gipps St in the carpark across from Club Bega. So a bit more of a walk to the main street.

Looks like they are planning to go outside the NSW borders!

I notice Bega is showing as live on the NRMA map!
(And Lithgow is still showing as "coming soon" despite having gone active a few weeks ago!)

Great! Driving to Bega tomorrow, will give it a whirl. Still showing as "coming soon" on Plugshare though.

I did have a look at Plugshare too for a second opinion, but with no info there, I figured I'd leave it for someone on-the-ground to confirm!
That reminds me, yesterday I saw a Vaguebook photo of an NRMA station (someone put the photo up, didn't say where it was and didn't reply to any comments asking where it was). Maybe it was Bega?

I put up a photo of Bega a few posts back. Not sure if that was it. Have messaged NRMA on Plugshare re its status.
