Supercharger - Hawthorne, CA - Tesla Design Center (CLOSED TO PUBLIC 19 Jul 2021, 8 V2 + 2 V3 stalls)
- Thread starter highedu
- Start date
I fully understand the 80%. Did you not read my post? I’ve always been able to move the slider to 100%. Now, when you get to 80% at Hawthorne, the charging will stop regardless of where you put the slider. You now need to unplug the car and then plug it in again. That’s what’s new to me.
My apologies, I did not understand your post, apparently. What you describe is new to me as well, I’ve never had that happen. First time I’ve heard that reported.
This site was severely reduced tonight in terms of stalls and it didn’t specify on the navigation at all. Only 4 stalls working total. All others were blocked off and the 1 working V3 stall was providing slower speeds than the V2.
In car maps says it’s closed but I’m charging right now. It’s open but one 250kw charger is coned off.
I was also able to charge here last night despite maps saying closed. More surprisingly, all stalls were open (not sure if functional but definitely not coned off) including both 250kW chargers.

I recently spoke to the spouse of a SpaceX employee and was told that there are many many Tesla owners at SpaceX, so no doubt the additional Supercharger stalls will be welcomed.

Interesting though - you'd think if SpaceX employees were the concern they would add wall connectors in the SpaceX parking garage? Could do hundreds of them for the cost of this supercharger.
Agreed, though this site was built long before Teslas were common on the road, and there were no "local" SpaceX employees ever using this site. For all we know, there is a bank of HPWCs somewhere on the grounds. Or not. Now that SpaceX has a need for charging, they can just use the existing stalls and move everyone else to the new site. Personally, if I worked there, I would rather have a HPWC and forget about it for the whole day.
As @4SUPER9 noted, there may well be a lot of HPCs in the SpaceX parking structure. I neglected to ask if that was the case. If I see that person again (and I might) I will try to remember to ask.
the answer is yes. I can get a spot. But I didn’t see the 250kw chargers. I think they were the ones across from the covered spots? There were two cars occupying it already.
Many of us predicted that this site would shut down after the new one opened. I would like to know if maybe it remains active, but de-promoted by just removing it from the map. Or, maybe it may remain active and accessible to employees and official visitors only.
Mannn didn’t think it would happen so soon. I wonder if they will still let people go there even if it’s off the map now.
Tesla removed this location from the "Find Us" map and listing page today, and the hawthornerocketsupercharger slug now redirects to the listing page.
Could someone local check to see if the superchargers are no longer accessible?
