Video on the Facebook group page shows this Supercharger completely full with 3-6 cars waiting.
If you follow the thread on the V3 charger at Fremont you will see that a Model 3 takes 25 minutes from 8% to 80% and that same car on a V2 150kW Supercharger takes 30 mins. I think its gonna take a Raven or newer vehicle to really NEED the V3 chargers, like maybe a Semi.Elon needs to install some of those fancy super-duper superchargers (v.3?) in the busy corridors. Will cut the charge time in half.
Faster chargers and more large stations like Kettleman are needed across the board. As Teslaa become more and more common this will be a frequent occurrence on holiday travel, at major entertainment events, and during disaster evacuations if Tesla doesn't invest heavily in infrastructure expansion.Elon needs to install some of those fancy super-duper superchargers (v.3?) in the busy corridors.

Holiday travel back up. Every supercharger spot is full and there is a line that eventually extended around the building. The Tesla barista informed me that it has been this busy all week. Pack your patience when while Tesla road tripping during thr summer holidays.
I'm curious about this. Were there lineups at the other nearby superchargers as well?Between Harris ranch, kettleman, Bakersfield, and buttonwillow, it was about 70 chargers packed almost the entire day turning a car over every 30-40 minutes. That's a lot of cars.
I think that more useful than the straight speed bump to 250 kW will actually be that the V3 chargers don't power split. Your example of 8% to 80% is for when the stall is giving full power. And sure, a 5 minute improvement doesn't sound like all that much in that circumstance. But compare it to the same 8% to 80% when the Model 3 has plugged in second and gets only 36 kW or 72 kW for the first 10-15 minutes of the charge session. The time differential is going to be more significant. So, for less than half full stations, the speed upgrade may not matter that much. But for really busy stations, the improvement in throughput can be pretty significant.If you follow the thread on the V3 charger at Fremont you will see that a Model 3 takes 25 minutes from 8% to 80% and that same car on a V2 150kW Supercharger takes 30 mins.
