Post A Picture Of Your Car Charging

[CHGolferJim]

Charging in Lexington, MA again. When I got there the parking lot was sparkling clean...except for every EV charging space, which looked neglected and seriously covered with leaves (see the leaves on the ground in my previous post and then multiply that by 10). So I got out the broom I keep in the hidden trunk compartment (fits perfectly) and swept all the stalls till they looked super nice. Didn't actually think to take a before and after photo but while testing out the camera I did get an angle of the spots by chance.

My good deed for the day~

I'm thinking white with with piano black and textile, too. Do you have any good interior shots of dash, doors and ceiling and where they meet? Thanks. '

Picked up my S85 this past Saturday in Austin. Within the first 24 hours, I charged from a gallery HPWC (Austin gallery), a supercharger (Waco), a 50 amp plug at an RV park (Abilene), and my 30 amp dryer plug. Today got 10 minutes on my 110 outlet just to complete the cycle. I feel like I should get a merit badge or something, no?

Good choice! I will take some pictures maybe later today and then edit this post to include a link to an imgur album so as not to derail the thread lol.

No joke, I wish there were like unlockable achievements that the car alerted you to, kinda like a PS3 game hahaha.

Congratulations on getting your new Model S!

Hope you will soon upgrade from the 30A dryer outlet @ your home to a 240V NEMA 14-50 outlet.
Charging at home will then be a viable "wake up with your car's battery as full as you want it to be."

<<<Using the 110 V to charge must have been just because you could, because it certainly is kinda slooowww charging.>>>

Just did an 120km trip to try the SC network on a sunday night in Cornwall, ON, Canada They should put the actual charger location on the MAP and not just the location address. I found it when I saw the wood box, I knew the SC was next to it, and of course it was. I sure hope no one install an SC next to my house, they are noisy. I was expecting it to be much closer to the highway, but I guess that the spot they found.

I have more pix of my car charging than I care to admit...

First one was in Chelan, Wa at a Plug-In Central Wa fund raiser event. Must have had a dozen S's charging at the RV park in shifts. 6/13. Now there are 3 HaL2's in town! Thanks, Jack A!

Second photo is at the library in Sicamous, B.C. 6/14.

I am at this charger quite often but never while there was another Tesla! Perhaps I'll see you here soon. And I agree, it's been rather dirty lately, especially with all the leaves this week. Awesome job on the sweep! :biggrin:.

I was here in my ICE a few days ago and saw two Teslas charging! Both were out of state.

Went Iowa Pheasant hunting this past weekend. My relatives just have some fields and grain bins, no house to destination charge at. So my brother and I camped and charged at the grain bins. Good times. Started charging in the morning on the 110 16amp outlet available. Then later, I riged up a 40amp 240volt connection where there was a grain dryer being installed (wiring and breaker installed but not the dryer yet). Going back in a couple of weeks to install an outdoor NEMA 14-50.

Cookevile Tennessee Cracker Barrel. Doing a little road trippin.

Charging on a 10-50 arc welder outlet. Thanks Btrflyl8e for the extension cord.

Grey Tsportline's looking sweet :biggrin:.

 

[Btrflyl8e]

Glad the cord worked there. I got a prime spot in my friend's garage, plugged into 110. They swear they'll have a better option next visit, although I haven't moved my car since I got here Sunday. I'm heading home tomorrow, see you when you get back!

Marietta Service Center. This was my substitute for the upcoming Atlanta Supercharger. No dual chargers but a 45 minute charge was more than enough. Here's the two grey wheels (19s vs 21s) next to one another. Congrats to whoever is receiving VIN 55545. Very sharp looking car. Enjoy your autopilot. :wink:

Charging on a temporary 14-50 at my destination. Somerset Ky.

Here's the two greys next to one another.

Ummm... maybe I need to adjust my monitor, but those look quite red to me.

Grey wheels. Sorry for the confusion. 19s vs 21s

Tysons Corner VA Marriott. Always a bonus to stumble across chargers when going to meetings. They were Nissan branded.

Winter arrives a bit early this year.

Interesting that you have to pay $7 for parking to get to the chargepoint EVSE. There were not a lot of choices there, but I understand that Petaluma will have a supercharger soon!

Nice! I was there last summer and saw that location on PlugShare, but driving a rental Mustang convertible, had no need of it.

Here is my Model S enjoying a supercharge for the fist time (at least under my ownership)
