Awesome! Fills an underserved area quite nicely.

Yes indeed, big gap in that area.

lol no way I'm parking there especially after dark.

I do miss the Hamburger Tree though.

Double meaning when folks say this is an underserved area.

Just drove by. The install team is finishing up with the cabinets, all pedestals done, paving and signage done.

Transformer not installed, so essentially waiting on SDG&E at this point.

So pleased with this location! When coming from Palm Springs/Big Bear to San Diego, we always stop in Temecula (which is usually too early). And all the other stops Southbound are way too far off the freeway.

This looks like ideal restaurant options too! Thai, Med, Mexican, Pizza, Burgers. There's nothing more you could want!

I drive by almost every other day to check on this location. I post my updates on Twitter usually and sometimes instagram (also as ChargePozitive).
VERY excited about this spot as it will more than DOUBLE the amount of fast charging for all of escondido, especially when other brands begin to use the upcoming NACS adapters etc.

This is a safe place to park.

Did you see a transformer installed at this location yet?

I went by yesterday and saw cones in front of most of the stalls and plastic wrap around those without cones. Wonder what the hold-up is! Excited for this one to open given it is close to my house...and just perfect for the 3 years of free supercharging that came with my new Model X LR (which has been fantastic so far).

Go look for the transformer. That's the hold-up. The pad near the cabinets was still empty last time I was on-site.

What’s the bathroom option if I don’t want to buy anything?

 

[bkp_duke]

Was by recently, still no transformer. SDG&E appear to be dragging their feet on this one.

There's a transformer shortage that is affecting a lot of utilities...

An Electric Transformer Shortage Is Impeding Grid Expansion, Transformation

A shortage of electrical distribution transformers in the US means grid expansion and modernization projects are being delayed or canceled.

Sorry for the terrible camera quality (my phone's broken) but it looks like Tesla's planning on leaving these unfinished for a while..
I tried the uncovered charger to no avail (no surprise)
C'mon supply chain!!
