Looks like everything is done here except one thing, there are still no transformers. I will keep looking every week.

Eh: transformers are over-rated. You don't really need one for a Supercharger.

I was there yesterday and noticed some very large metal conduits heading down to where the chargers are. Maybe transformers are remote? Seems like that would be a bad idea for many reasons. In any event, they are not in service yet.

 

[Kevy Baby]

I stopped by this morning to see how things were going (still waiting on the transformer) and noticed that one of the L2 chargers was installed on level 1, right inside the entrance off of Birch.

I heard October 10 is go-live date

It will all depend on when the transformers show up. I wonder who is giving you the Oct 10 date (which is next Monday, so I question that date).

Already live on Find Us. Maybe a accidental update?

 

[capitanmikey]

I can confirm it will be live on October 10th. I took a screenshot of the Brea Newsletter email that they send out to the residents.

 

[Kevy Baby]

I'll believe it when I see it. Since there were no transformers as of Tuesday, I still very much doubt this date.

Those 24 Level II chargers are likely free for now.

Lucky, I am sure one will open up here soon. I got so excited when I saw CA as part of the Supercharger opening, but then I read Brea... Too Far

Live @bmah. Charge history gave the name below although I did not see on the nav or app yet:

Also live are the 24 level 2 chargers, all of which are these new gen 3 Tesla Wall connectors supplying a very compact J1772 handle and 48 amps of electrons. I assume free as they fired right up. No parking fee or gates for the structure.

 

[Kevy Baby]

It's not officially open until it shows up on the map in my car

 

[CW from the OC]

Are the super chargers free too?

 

[MrFusion4]

Are the super chargers free too?

what are the rates per kwh? I assume even though its not on the map yet, it's still charging a fee?

I would assume so, just have to wait until it shows on the nav to get pricing I presume.

Went by today. Tried two of the regular chargers (level 2? Look just like my house charger but with a black face). Used my brand new Tesla factory adaptor. Both chargers would initially start charging but within a minute shut down and give the message that the charger wasn’t putting out enough…..voltage or something. Not sure why they wouldn’t work.
