BTW, in case there was any doubt how important this Supercharger location is, just a little bit south at the Sorrento Valley SC, they had an 8 car waiting line for a charge last Friday, which is unfortunately very normal for there. If people seem impatient waiting for this SC to open, this is why.

17 cars!? Damn!The Tesla parking valet at Qualcomm told me the queue line was 17 cars deep the day before on Aug 23. The line went completely around the parking lot. Carlsbad can not open soon enough.
Will be there in 5 more months so keeping my fingers crossed they'll be done with the delays before then.View attachment 331081 View attachment 331083
Took a couple of pictures today. Looks like they are slow walking the final few things that need to get done while they wait for the transformer from Sdge. As far as I can see, the only thing they’ve done in the last week is build walls around the transformer location. They still haven’t striped the handicap stalls, or signed them, nor finished the top landscaping and/or final concrete work.
Between the site architect, the owners, Tesla, and Carlsbad permitting, they made some odd choices. They are enclosing a transformer, even though all cities (including Carlsbad) routinely leave them exposed. And they not only didn’t enclose the noisy and hot air spewing SC cabinets, they actually put them on a raised platform, when they could have put them 6’ lower behind a wall. Oh well, can’t account for taste (or idiocy).

Thanksgiving is quite reasonable. Although, they are sure taking their time with the final work that needs to be done. Nothing has happened with landscaping, striping, etc. Seems like a lot can be done while waiting for the transformer.
Why does this feel like a no-bid government contract $25 million supercharger?Went by there today. Sure enough they were planting trees.
Is that realistic? (Honest question -- I don't know). Looks like they still need a transformer, and presumably whatever final SDG&E and city inspector signoffs that may be required.
