Supercharger - Blaine, WA - Boblett Street (LIVE 11 Apr 2024, 16 V4 stalls)

Is "Fixing feeders" a software thing?

Wires going from a main junction box or piece of equipment to another are called feeders. There are feeders from the switchgear to the supercharger cabinets and then feeders from the cabinets to each charge post.

OK, but AFAICT all the feeders are completed. What's the "fixing" about?

There was something wrong with other that didn’t meet code. It was written as a correction needed. What exactly we don’t know. Online just doesn’t whether it was approved or disapproved and the f elders to the posts were disapproved. It’s all in the pictures I posted of the inspection page.

Progress today, 3 Tesla technicians in Tesla Energy Model Y’s testing the chargers and setting them up.

Also, the gardening is done, this station looks very tidy, almost done, and hopefully soon to be turned on!

They seem to test these V4 a week or two before they go live.

Checked today and chargers were still off line. Spoke to the Tesla crew last week and they couldn’t say when they would go online. Said they had a lot of testing to do. I’ll keep checking but I suspect the charger will show in Tesla charger map when it goes live.

Yes, they typically show on the map when they are live.

0.42/kWh usd today.
I suppose the intention for this station is for those crossing the border.
But why would anyone use this if the ones in Canada are much cheaper.

Because you've been stuck waiting in line to come across for a few hours now, in the snowy cold, and didn't charge beforehand because you thought you'd be through there quick and charge at Burlington... forgetting that your mother riding back with you doesn't have Nexus so you've got to take the slow lane.

Or so I've heard.

I've noticed that Tesla likes to put superchargers near international borders and major ferry terminals (on both sides). And I think it's for a lot of the reasons listed here. Unexpected stuff happens and timing can be inflexible.
