I charged there the other day, didn't realize we needed photos, sorry. Some nice lady stopped and asked what these stands are for.

15 of which were ICEd tonight when I stopped there. Luckily, I was the only Tesla there.
I guess that's what happens when they use "good" parking spots outside a mall. To be fair, about half are marked "30 minute customer parking" or something similar.

Yes, they put the Tesla stalls right next to the mall food court. I'm sure they're very attractive looking spots. I saw 100% ICEd with no Teslas.
I'm new to this. How do I notify Tesla? Is there a special email address or phone number for supercharger issues?

There is a number on the stalls, if like in Florence, SC the numbers weren't yet applied you can call roadside from the manuals section of your main display
Just stopped here. All stalls taken, 1 Tesla 16 ICEd one ICE double parked so squeezed in waited for an ICEd spot to leave repacked and had over 300 mi/hr. Quite annoying when one is at 10%.

When I went by last week on Dec 20, there were at least 8 of the stalled ICE'd :-( They really shouldn't have put the chargers so close to the mall. They should have been further away in less-desirable parking spots. I suspect this is going to be a problem at this site for some time to come.

Has anyone reported ICEing the Florence superchargers to Tesla or mall security? If so, any success or feedback?
Driving by, I still see the spots ICEd quite often. I'd take action myself, but as I'm not a Tesla owner just yet, my arguments wouldn't be very convincing. However, I'm concerned about future planned usage.

People seem to ignore the ev only signs . I was there 2 weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon . When I got there, there were 6 or 7 spots open . When I left , there were only 3 spots not iced including the spot I was leaving. As mentioned before by others , they put the chargers in prime parking next to the food court
I also wasn’t a fan of this location . It was safe, but there were definitely issues . I stayed with the car because I had a expensive bike on the rack . My wife said the mall was filthy and run down . We skipped it in on the way home and chose to sit in a hotel parking lot in Columbia instead

Any update on this site....planning on bypassing Santee and stopping there on way to beach in a couple of weeks.
ICEing down, mall still a dump?

Stopped there today, and lunch at Chipotle was excellent — a rice bowl with chorizo and lots of fresh ingredients. The mall construction has been finished, and we had a nice raid on Barnes & Nobles for car reading. Also, had good stops at Santee and Savannah airport.

So it looks like someone repainted the parking lot lines within the past week.
Sort of.
Not sure what they were trying to accomplish. Or whether they think they're finished.
Also not sure how they figure someone will park between the lines at the last supercharger in the lineup.
It's not like they're painting the whole parking lot either, just the supercharger stalls.
Aren't pretty much all supercharger stalls "perpendicular"?
This is an improvement... how?

Yeah, I stopped by there a few weeks ago to charge while this paint job was going on. The nice gentleman who was doing the work had blocked off all but a few spots with construction zone tape, one was occupied with a car charging and the one next to it that I squeezed into to charge. He asked me how long I would be and I indicated only 10-15 minutes which seemed to satisfy him. I asked him what the purpose of the new paint job was and he said he had no idea, just that the mall owners told him to do it right away so he was doing it.
I charge here several times a month and there are always some spots ICEd and some open. I have had several people ask me about the car and how charging works. The mall is dated and not the cleanest, but bathrooms tend to be clean enough for me to do my business while I charge. Location is great though and fairly critical for my regular business travels in South Carolina.

Update on the painted lines, which now appear finished. I think they're just hoping that the ICE drivers will be so confused they'll park somewhere else.
If I was contracting out the paint work, I might have gone with a more standard scheme seen elsewhere: full green between the lines (general EV charging) or full red (Tesla).
