Dash Cards

Thx!

 

[CHRGIT]

Lanny: at some point I saw a file you posted that was a little card to but on your dash when away from your car while charging to tell people how to contact you. Could you like that again? I can't seem to find it. Thx!

There is also a app called Chargebump. I have tried to use it but it hasn't seemed to have caught on. You communicate using the tag number rather thank your phone number. ChargeBump - A simple solution to EV charge rage

And that's the problem: an app like this will only work if a large fraction of the EV owners are registered on it.

How does someone who is arriving even know you're on the app to try it? I suppose you could leave a note about the app, but that's even more convoluted than leaving a phone number.

Tesla's last day at Westfield Annapolis Mall is Thursday.

Two Tesla connectors (80A) and two J-1772 ClipperCreeks in the Blue Garage 1A near Nordstrom. I'm afraid that it is going to be up to us to convince Mall management to put up signs to reserve these spots for EV charging only.

No news on Laurel.

I've lived in the area most of my life. Annapolitans do not respect courtesy signs, EV charging, Expectant Mothers, curbside to go, etc. Handicap vehicles will also park in EV spots, even when plenty of closer handicap spots are available. People generally respect parking cones however. If someone were to place cones in the charging spots when finished, they would be available more often. I've seen this done in other areas for Blink and Chargepoint.

If only it could solve my problem, bumping ICE vehicles. That's going to be a tough one to solve. I've only ever twice wanted to bump actual EV's who weren't charging. Down in Florida, people parked 3+ hours at a supercharger in an outlet mall, and 4 Model X's in Dulles airport garage, not even hooked up to charge.

Most people respect these signs too....no one likes handing out Benjamins:

The Tesla Annapolis location is no longer on Tesla.com map. There is now a destination charger at the Princess Royale in Ocean City.

Thursday afternoon 5:56 pm.
No changes. Meter still zeros. Sad..

Since there's currently 294 active North America superchargers, maybe we want to keep holding our breath and have Laurel be number 300?

Unfortunately, that didn't turn out too well for Norfolk .
Plus I want this one ASAP (even if it means Bethesda goes away).

"Solid State" electricity meter? How old is that thing? Were there ever vacuum tubes in them?

Better than a "liquid state" Solid state means electronic, not electromechanical.

This may be in the running for the most visited non-functional Supercharger

 

[Mknac]

Any news?

Any news?

Let's go check it out. @vdiv, @Lanny and I are heading to Laurel right now. Let's meet at 11:15 AM.

 

[Lanny]

We're here. Flash mob! The Zero Meter Gang.

Lived up to 0. No progress. No Tesla lights. No stickers on stall 4B (label or toll free numbers). Hey, at least the overhead LED garage lights are all on during the day

Well, thanks for saving me a stop-by - altho would've come in handy. I have 100 rated miles to get to my parents' house today (65 mile trip), I'll have to go easy on A/C so I minimize time in yellow-battery-land...
