Supercharger - Grasonville, MD

[Saghost]

Show the meter after! Hopefully no hail down there, upgraded my weather app to show hail contours...planning evac routes from work now...

The after picture in the pouring rain really didn't come out, but either it's set to really big units or I'm not understanding it right, because it showed the same 04 and 000000 when I left. I took about 30 kWh and Joe probably took more - he was still charging when I left.

Charging now. Still not showing on nav screen. If heading east bound, the detour is about a 1 mile each way. Get on and off at Chester River Beach Rd. If west bound, then 100 yards.

Well, I had my dates wrong for going to the Distillery.

I was planning on going out to check on this Supercharger anyway but since y'all have it covered, I'll stay on my side of the bridge

First day it's opened and already ICED, LOL! #SMH

That same blue Hyundai was parked in the *same exact* spot on Sunday. Never moved while we were charging. I bet it's a Royal Farms employee.

Plan (and will need) to stop there Friday enroute to NJ. Please post if any issues, I will be monitoring the thread. Grasonville is being shown as operational on supercharge.info. Thanks!!

Wonder what needs to happen to have it show on the Tesla side?

Someone at the mothership needs to have the system updated to open status. I think it typically takes a week to two weeks after it's open to show in the car.

If something goes wrong, there's a pair of CHAdeMO DCFC units in the Queenstown Outlet Malls about 4 miles away on EVGo. I think they have a level 2 there, too. Depending on how close you cut it, Laurel is about 45 miles away. I'd be surprised if you have any problems, though.

Occasionally if they have power quality problems they will wait until those are fixed before updating the website and listing the new supercharger in the navigation system. Rock Springs WY was briefly operational but taken offline for this reason. If you want to use a site that is listed as operational at supercharge.info but isn't officially open as far as Tesla is concerned, then have a backup plan just in case.

Interesting, thanks! Good to know why it may not be ready yet for prime time!

I also think a number of the Royal Farms gas stations on the Eastern Shore have CHADEMO stations installed. Check plugshare for a good list of locations.

East Coast Supercharger Celebration Road Trip Idea

What do you think?

 

[CHGolferJim]

Had an easy stop, no problems at all. My first visit to a Royal Farms which seems like a good host, although we didn't try the food as our lunch stop was timed for Newark DE.

Anybody charged here lately? It is showing in the nav maps as temporarily closed.

Still says 'Coming Soon' on the Find Me. It's never been 'Open' on the Nav, right? So, that's an upgrade, not a downgrade! Do they ever do that normally?

 

[CHGolferJim]

I charged there 8/25 no problem. The Royal Family shop is nice. Don't know if anything happened to their juice in the meantime.

Correct. It has never been in Nav to my knowledge. I would expect it's still functional, unless someone here knows better, but we have no insight into that with it not in Nav.

It's showing in my nav as reduced service.
Not showing any stall information.

Navigation in car said 7 of 12 stalls available (I was only car charging).
My guess is 2 pairs are offline.
I received normal charge rate on 3a.

Also, FYI, the guys living in the trailer behind the fence directly behind 6a/6b seem to have a fondness for throwing crab apples over fence into the Supercharger area. I was charging on the low end while they tossed 10-15 over fence on high end.
Stay classy, San Diego.....
