Supercharger - Buford, GA

[grant10k]

Any updates?

No.

As of 8:00 the 23rd, the lights are still off. Saw another Tesla there taking pictures, so that was almost eventful. There was a small construction crew across the street burying a cable, but since the power meter has power it's probably unrelated. Still a big pile of fence segments and a semi trailer just sitting nearby.

Side note, anyone usually get here from Supercharger.info by clicking the VLC icon (/s) then clicking discussion? Figure the activity around here would drop since it's been offline.

You can still get here from the Superchargers for Tesla app on iOS (app built with supercharge.info details--still has a map with different icons depicting current status of superchargers --- permit, under construction, etc).

Went by tonight at 5 o’clock. Still no lights. The storage trailer is gone… But the fencing is still stacked up at the end.

Thanks guys for the regular stops. This is starting to get annoying, but it's par for the course for these installs.

I live about a minute away, just checked for the hell of it just now. Nothing new to report.

@Turrbo and @Shocking - all of a sudden I see a bunch of Buford guys here! Curious if you ordered Model 3s and if you have yours yet. I’m taking delivery tomorrow afternoon, wondering if we’ll be seeing a lot more 3s around the MOG soon?

Add ItsMyS and The Contessla to the Buford list! I am guessing all of the Buford crowd loves their Teslas as much as we do!!

I just picked up my CPO last Monday.
From what I've seen the whole Tesla family is just thrilled about the brand.
Seems like everyone is an enthusiast!

We should!

I got a late 2017 MS a month ago. Def loving it. If you ever see a matte black MS with some Arachnids around there, it's me

Looking closely at the chargers yesterday all of them are still missing a lot of bolts from the outside covers .. which tells me that Tesla reps still need to connect something inside each supercharger

It would be nice to know when the chargers will go online to make a event meetup out of it . 2018MX 100D

No power as of 5pm on Friday at Buford!!! They did remove all the fencing from the site

I've been following the supercharge build out since there were 14 total in the world. I only follow the U.S ones, but I will tell you that this last step, Tesla testing it and flipping it on, is a crapshoot as far as when it will happen. sometimes within a week. Sometimes it take 2 months.

At some point, Tesla will need to update the supercharger map as well. The current location is showing in downtown Buford...not near I85. Also, I went by and checked again last night since I was in the area...no lights.

Tesla's Supercharger map almost always shows "coming soon" superchargers in the geographic center of the city they are coming to. This prevents unwanted attention during construction and also prevents disappointment should Tesla decide to move the supercharger to another location within the city.

Thanks...good to know.
