Supercharger - Cle Elum, WA (LIVE Dec 2018, 12 V2 stalls)

[motocoder]

My wife and I were out there last Friday and Saturday. Looks like there is still a lot of interior construction to go. But the location couldn't be more convenient - just 10-20 meters from the superchargers.

The problem with Centralia is that with the faster charge speeds you barely have 30 minutes to eat (on average)

First rule of charging: do not complain about charging being too fast -- ever.

LOL seriously. It's amazing how things have changed from 2016 when I started driving to 2019.

Haha.

But, in all seriousness it wasn't complaining as much as it was accepting the new reality.

The new reality meaning 30 minutes or less for food fill up.

Progress! Though likely, as with all refits/remodels, going slower than everyone wishes it would

@laceyblackman, any update on opening date, integration with Tesla SpC hq for door code on arrival, etc. Anything we can do to help?

Thanks for going the extra mile here

I'll bet this is the only Supercharger tracking thread we've got going where it's about construction inside a building instead of construction of the station outside.

@laceyblackman Any info on how the after hours lounge will work? Will there be vending machine options? (Anything more "advanced" then chips and soda?) Have you decided if you'll have a Venmo or PayPal or something to allow for digital donations for people that just swing by during after hours but still want to see you be commercially successful?

You guys!!! Sorry I’ve been MIA. I’ve been working hard to get this project wrapped up. Fingers crossed we get city sign off in the AM and can start serving coffee THIS FRIDAY. If we get city sign off, it will only be coffee and pastries, we’ve had a little hiccup getting the hood and fire suppression in to run the full kitchen, so unfortunately they will be delayed a few weeks. The lounge is waiting in a few pieces, the vending machine in order will be refrigerated and have FRESH sandwiches, pastries, soda, kombucha etc. I’m still working to get a full super automatic pay per use espresso machine that will be specifically for the lounge. Just waiting in a few vendors at this point. I’m so excited to meet all of you, I’ll try to jump back on tomorrow and post an update! Thanks for the continued support!

Amazingly generous! Pay per use for the fresh vending machine, and the espresso machine will take visa too! It will be a few weeks to get they completely set up.

@laceyblackman It's looking great! Please confirm your opening for Friday! I know a number of us are looking forward to it. If the timing works out I'm thinking of heading that way on Saturday.

Cheers!

CHARGE ON!

 

[laceyblackman]

We are officially ready to rock and roll. It will be just coffee and pastries for the next few weeks, but we will be open starting Friday at 5am

The door lock is up and running! If you are looking at the front of the building, it’s the 3rd door from right. I’ll take photos later today.

Can confirm. The access code shows up in the Nav when you push the supercharger icon. It looks great inside as well. Already a huge improvement on the previous business!
