Supercharger - Creston, BC

Anyone know what this box on the side is? I don’t know when it went in but it isn’t in all of my previous pictures. It was progress that I didn’t notice when it happened.

Houses the Site Master Controller.

I'm pretty sure it houses the oscillation overthruster.

I have been continuing to check this site and as of today there is still nothing new happening here. Sorry to not have any better news! On a side note, there are drag races happening in Creston on May 22 and I encourage any EV drivers to enter and show everyone what they are capable of! I hope I’m allowed to say that on here

As long as it’s not street races, but at an actual track, yes.

Haha they are official and happening on our airport tarmac. Being put on by a local car group called the Creston Valley Cruisers. Their Facebook page has more info.

Hopefully the supercharger is up and running by then so any out of towners can get an easy full charge for race day!

Cranbrook is apparently open. Would be a good time to check on this one. There's a decent chance a Tesla tech drove out from Vancouver to commission them all at once.

I thanked to the red seal electrical from Tesla at the Cranbrook location last week and he informed me he works out of Kamloops, he wouldn’t tell me what the status on other chargers are, but if you see a gray model Y with a bunch of cabinets open it would probably be him!

Still no news on Creston opening? Amazing how long a lot of nothing can take!

 

[edman_2222]

Nothing. Still waiting on Fortis to install a green transformer. I check pretty regularly (at least once a week) so will let everyone know as soon as something happens.

 

[edman_2222]

No actual progress here, but this is new…starting to think they’ll never turn these on They still aren’t hooked up to any power source.

 

[edman_2222]

I haven’t checked in a while but today had some good news finally We finally have a green box in Creston.

Alas, no meter yet but the look of it (2nd photo). Soon, hopefully!

 

[edman_2222]

There was a meter there today…

 

[richteer]

Well that was quick! Hopefully it'll be commissioned and online soon!

 

[edman_2222]

We’re paved!

 

[Nogassssssss]

Just need the power company and Tesla to flip their switches! Other places Flo has come online before Superchargers, I believe. So we'll have to wait and see here, hopefully not long now!

No joy in Creston today. Looks like they’re still waiting for the pavement to set.

Stole this photo from FB. Rear covers are off and “Brandon” says they should show active on the Nav in the next few days…

 

[PLUS EV]

He's most likely activating them today. If it goes off without a hitch, they will probably be functional later tonight if they aren't already.

I run bad for being there a day too early! But I'm not driving back there in this rain lol.
