Post A Picture Of Your Car Charging

Jake, that's a really elegant photo.

Not my car charging :

Yesterday at Flamingo in Las Vegas, as usual two ICEs were parked in two of the four charging spots. I was only there long enough to get to 90%.

BTW Newscutter: a photographer as well as a poet!! That's a nice pic a couple up thread.

So my Tesla charging connector was installed yesterday and Tesla left their Australian Demo vehicle in my parking space overnight to test the connector as part of the local validation process. I won't get my Model S for a few months so it's not my car, but I think it's the first picture here of a Model S charging in Sydney Australia.

Nice, meloccom. Looks like the driver would have had to scoot over and get out on the passenger side? That's a tight squeeze right there.

Edit: Oops, forgot that Ozzies drive on the wrong side thanks to the Poms :biggrin:

I think you may have gotten that slightly wrong...Aussies drive on the "right" side.:wink:

Where "right" in this case means "left". :wink:

And I'm sure there's something to be said about a Model S from the "land down under" also parking in an underground garage...

For some reason Roseville, CA was built to be head in - first time I haven't had to back in.

Nice to see the newer-style stalls being used at more sites!

Traditionally, the biggest issue with the head-in model has been the difficulty with snow removal; not really an issue in California. Surprised we don't see it used more often in the warmer climes.

Yes the Australian demo is RHD and was used for the type approval process. I tend to park any car in that space close to the wall so it's easier to get out. The Model S fits better than I thought it would.

Sharing our HPWC with a very nice couple from Georgia.

The nice thing about head i parking is that you can still charge even it the spot is ICE'd...

Which side is the charging port on for those cars?

Sparky's first charge off a 110 outlet, in Sedona. Just one more among a bunch of golf carts. But it should be fine for our needs all week. I will be talking to the resort manager tomorrow about possibly adding a couple of "real" charging stations to attract more EV folk. Apparently there was an electric car at this resort two weeks ago, so security and maintenance staff were not looking like deer in headlights when I asked for some electrons.

RHD models have the charging ports on the left side like US models.

It's hard to imagine that location not having ICE'ing problems...

Full house at Newark!

This was taken near Americus, GA during an electric RC flying event. There was nowhere to charge up and Savannah was over 200 miles away. So when my buddy came down from Memphis hauling a 15kw generator behind his mobile. Complete with a 14-50 outlet just for me.
