Supercharger - Guilderland, NY

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I've been there twice and I saw it ICE'd both times. Once with plenty of parking spots available next to it.
3 of the parking spots are shared with general parking 3 are reserved (from what I recall, I might be wrong).
I think it will be very likely to be completely ICE'd on Black Friday. It would be good to have the mall police phone number handy, just in case.
 
Full house on a rainiy day with a full parking lot too. Although we had to move a shopping cart to get the last spot.

Will also say anecdotally that there is less driendly chatter in the busy northeast among Tesla owners than I am used to elsewhere... Some places you can't even get someone to look your way!

Guy on reddit claims a 20-stall supercharger at Crossgates Mall:

New 20-stall Supercharger being installed in Albany, NY • r/teslamotors

> Was at Crossgates Mall today and noticed a new SC location being built. There's 20 parking spaces in the back of the lot fenced off, with wiring conduits installed and these crates sitting next to it. I am very surprised as we already have SCs at Colonie Center Mall only about 3 miles away. Now we just need a service station!
 
He is correct. The night pics are from June 23rd. The crate pic is from earlier this week.

I don't think there are any issues, I view this new installation as Elon's promised increase of units in preparation for the Model 3 launch.
Albany is a central location and will probably have a sales and service center in the future. It is surrounded by chip plants and research facilities and many model 3s will reside there. The $2000 NYS rebate for electric vehicles also aids in the electrification of transportation.

Sorry, most times I'm in the car charging I'm actually working. On the rare occasion I'm not catching up, I'm trying for a little shuteye.

Stopped in today and the Tesla inspector was there. I was lucky enough to speak with him for a few minutes. He expects the site will be up and running in a week or two, still lots of back office things to work through.
He was unaware these SC's are not on Tesla's webpage, but he is going to look into that and said keep an eye on Tesla's webpage for further details.
He did make a point to not stop in expecting to get a charge, wait until you see these as available on Tesla's webpage.
