Would love to see a heat map from Tesla for HPWC purchases within 100 miles of the San Clemente SC. Perfect LA/OC/SD County epicenter for garaged versus non-garaged.
Anyway, glad Clemente is open now with Carlsbad on deck. It’s about time, as much as I’ll miss the always-delicious Mexican food at SJC.

Actually this thread is about the Carlsbad SC, not San Clemente.

Nope, I genuinely got confused about which thread I was posting in!
Thanks for the correction. There are so many new California Superchargers coming online that it is getting hard to keep track of them all.Now back to our discussion of the Carlsbad SC...

110 days into the permitting process, according to supercharge.info. Not looking promising.

Went by today, did another pretty thorough search around all of the mall and could find nothing.
Are we sure this permit was approved?

I can't find any trace of the original permit now, maybe it didn't get approved so they had to find an alternate site.
Ok, now this is interesting. The 7710 address is a gym with banks, cleaners, and dance studio nearby. Google maps shows lots of cars in the parking lot, so probably not the best location. However, doesn't the permit say "Building Commercial Cogen"? Also, right nearby (33°05'03.5"N 117°15'59.1"W) there is another parking lot that is right next to a high voltage line. I'm wondering if this location has been chosen with the utilities assistance and we will see a significant battery installed.

I was just looking at that exact parking lot as well, seems rather perfect for a supercharger location. REALLY disappointed if the first address gets passed on though. It was much more convenient for the 5 as well as the 78.
Moderator note: several posts about locals using Superchargers have been moved out of this forum to the Tesla Inc. forum, see Yet another thread about locals using Superchargers
The discussion can be continued there. This thread is for issues specific to the future Carlsbad Supercharger. Thank you.

I don’t know, man. Not too long ago, I drove up El Camino Real on a Friday evening, waiting to make the left turn onto HWY 78 westbound. It took me twenty minutes to get just south of the movie theatres to finally getting on the freeway onramp. It was incredibly congested.
As you later said, this new, more out of the way location may work out better in the long run.
Just to clear up some confusion this post might bring. This thread originally started with a permit for 2525 El Camino Real, which is across the road from the Carlsbad Shoppes, and is in the parking lot of a Vons grocery store. It is also right off the 78 freeway. The post above says that this permit has now been approved.
About a month ago, another permit was spotted for 7710 El Camino Real, which has nothing to do with a Vons, and is in a small mall. It is somewhat close to the 5 at La Costa, so a fairly quick drive from the 5.
The post above seems to be conflating the two permits.
You know, from now on, whenever anyone posts anything about Carlsbad permits, please bring a frigging phone and take a picture of what you found and post it.
