Supercharger - Lowell, AR

[MarcoRP]

@Chuq would be better to ask for updates in the middle of the night or @MarcoRP might be up soon.

Good morning!

There was an official statement about it being open posted on their Facebook group. See attached. What do we need to do to get this updated as "open" on the site?

@MarcoRP

What site are you talking about? It is being shown as "open" on supercharge.info

For other sites (such as tesla.com and plughsare.com) you will have to wait until Tesla themselves puts it up.

Lowell is 209 miles from Little Rock, so possible for me if I slow down and the temperature isn't cool or cold.
(Yes I have family in SW Missouri)

However, it'd be really nice if Tesla would open up another Supercharger on I-40 in AR, perhaps by Clarksville?

Are all 8 stalls operational now?

Supercharger worked like a charm. This makes day trips from Little Rock up and back to Razorbacks games, Crystal Bridges, etc. viable. Thanks so much!!

@LittleRedModl3 or anyone else since .. what power level did it supply?

Charged my 85D yesterday for 45 minutes. Never went above 48 kW. Was pretty cold and my battery wasn't preconditioned though.

How long does it usually take for a SC to be added to the Tesla app for car to use in routing?

I charged successfully today and all stalls appear open. Max rate was about 350 mph. As far as I can tell, I wasn’t billed for the charge. I expect Tesla has the charge rate turned down until it officially goes online.

Lowell got a shout out as a new Supercharger on the "Now You Know" youtube show with Zac and Jesse!

Tesla app now shows it active. We can condition the batteries on the way now.

Also the tesla supercharger website only shows it as 150kW

Oops, that's the pin I meant in the opening post, Bentonville, not Fayetteville.

Seems you both were right - the Bentonville and Fayetteville coming soon pins are now missing on the official map

Yet when I find it on my cars map, it shows 250kW? Hope it really is v3.

So far as I recall, there was never a pin on Fayetteville. I had just misremembered where the Bentonville pin was located, i.e. there was only ever 1 pin up in that corner of AR and I was remembering it as being on the wrong city.

That seems to be a pattern with newly opened V3 Superchargers.

This is great news! Like many, I'm eagerly awaiting news for the Fort Smith location. I've been monitoring Fort Smith's Facebook page where they post building permit updates on Mondays. They currently hashtag these posts with #FSMeansBusiness, so you can search for them that way. Help me keep an eye out for something related to Tesla!

That seems to be a pattern with newly opened V3 Superchargers.

Any ideas if there any reason for that pattern or average ETA's to open?

Car NAV shows temporarily unavailable, I'm plugged in getting 48 kW for 20+ minutes
