Supercharger - Everett, WA

The way these sites have been going up it'll possibly be done by your next visit.

We should be so lucky, the one in Tukwila has been languishing for the better part of a year, now.

Probably a different urgency in PNW than in California, the home of the Tesla

No sign of any Tesla equipment in the photos, let alone the utility transformer. This is within Snohomish County PUD service area. If it were PSE we might have a long wait for the green monster to show up, judging by Tukwila. Anyone have info about whether SC-PUD has transformers in-stock?

 

[Metalhead47]

They literally just starter construction last week. I think it'll be a while before any equipment shows up either way, but I think I'll check again next week.

Have you looked at tukwilla lately? Or in the last 250 days?

I'ma gonna give Everett even odds of beating Tukwilla, unless it's the same company/utility they are dealing with.

You may be on to something there…

Hardware is on site, including the white equipment cabinet. Didn’t get a look in the trench but there are lightpost footers installed, too.

Stopped by about 11am today. Two empty pads. No transformer not sure what the other pad would be for. Stalls look completed but still wrapped in plastic.

Interesting anomaly...

 

[Moorebid]

Looks like they're targeting a Target.

 

[israndy]

That took a minute to figure out what was different, thanks for the hint, it's a Target URL, not a Tesla URL

Any difference? This was today:

Insane how quick it’s coming together, I really hope it doesn’t end up languishing til next year waiting on something silly like a transformer or permits.

Cool to see chargepoint units being installed at the same location. We need more of these in the Lynnwood/Everett hoods. I feel like this will beat Tukwila

Only difference is the shopping cart was on it's wheels instead of on it's side.

I find it frustrating and sad, that feds and states are subsidizing CCS/Chademo, while Tesla are 2/3 of all EVs in America.
We need to require that fast chargers to have (CCS and/or Chademo) AND Tesla connectors.
Likewise, for Level 2 chargers, it should allow for J1772 and/or Tesla.
Just as Tesla owners have Tesla to J1772 adapters, it is easy enough for other EV owners to have a J1772 to Tesla Adapters.

 

[supergeek]

The CCS adapter for Tesla is $200. Seems like a small price to pay to allow there to be competition in the EV market going forward.
Maybe if we're lucky, Tesla will put both charge ports on future cars like they do in China. Ever wonder why the charge port door is so big?

Still no changes. Looks like everything is ready to go besides the transformer (and some signs at the charge point stalls)

 

[Metalhead47]

Was there Wednesday. Nothing to report, no transformer.

 

[Mrbrock]

Latest inspection about a month ago looking for clarification. Nothing since.

 

[Metalhead47]

Holiday update: nothing.

Just like both our cars still.

No change.
