Supercharger - Diamond Bar, CA (LIVE 4 Dec 2021, 24 V3 stalls)

Has anyone been able to get 250kw charging speed at this station? Been there 3 times and max charge speed is 150kw. I’ve tried preconditioning the battery on the way there and still can’t get 250kw.

I got the theoretical max on my SR+ multiple times 170kW

If it's cold or cool out, you really need a lot of preconditioning. As in, you have to have been driving freeway speeds (65+) with preconditioning for at least 30-45 minutes. And in cold weather, most often you still won't get top speed at the first supercharger of the day. Preconditioning from 5 miles away isn't going to cut it.

Thanks. Looks like the combination of preconditioning (5-7 mins) and state of charge below 20% helped boost the charging rate to 225kW. I probably didn’t meet both conditions on past charges here.

Preconditioning is critical. Sometimes 5 minutes on a cold day isn't close to be enough to get the full charging speed. Tried to charge yesterday with ambient temp in the low 70s and it was perfectly fine with only 2-3 minutes of preconditioning at the San Gabriel SC.

It looks like a different type of charging station is getting installed here as well. Maybe Electrify America, or similar?

Interesting! Was there a couple of weeks ago. Great location for the food area but a bit inconvenient for H Mart shopping. A bit far.

If EA, would be nice to have more than 2 or 4 stations.

I am pretty sure that this is going to be an EVGO site and not too large at that maybe 4 stalls maximum.

This Diamond Bar supercharger site doesn't pop up on my Tesla app anymore (as one of my nearby supercharger sites). Are these superchargers temporarily offline? If I scroll the map (in the app) to this location it says superchargers but it isn't highlighted with a red dot or say how many chargers are available. Is anyone else having a problem with this location?

Never mind, it's showing in the app again.

Well, it not EA since it looks like there is one up the street by Target.

The conduit layout is indicative of EA…

Bingo! It's EVGO.
