Alright!!! I just had this pop up on A Better Route Planner!

On my ABRP, it only shows the coordinates and doesn’t even indicate it’s a Supercharger. But, it planned my route to go through Lubbock and charge.

Hope it shows up in Nav soon so the battery can prep.

Not sure what your definition of "primary interstate" is, but I-27 is nearby.

It's also along highway 84 as much as the other two highways. Confusing metric.

The service center is pretty close to US82/62 but 5+ miles away from the closest access to I27 or US84. I think his metric was distance from the highway. The thinking goes that the more you have to drive off the highway into town to hit a charger, the less desirable it is for highway travel.

Anybody know if the new SC is open after 5pm? Most likely I will arrive in Lubbock after 5 and I want to be sure I can charge then.

I supercharged there at midnight last night. No gate or anything. Just drive around to the back of the building.

Yes. I set a limit of a 10 mile total diversion.
But note, that for US highways I follow the highway and return to the point of departure.
Otherwise, I'd not bother tracking the highways. They're rarely consistently the fastest route.

If you're _actually_ traveling along SE/NW along US-84, it doesn't seem to be that bad a diversion from the fastest route (which Mapbox says is to take the Loop on the Northeast side). 13 minutes and 6.1 miles. But still, I can't see Tesla wanting that as a permanent location if the major travel is SE/NW or NS.

But not along. It's quite a distance away and it's actually south of the start of I-27.

This location is now listed on Tesla's Find Us site: Lubbock, TX Supercharger | Tesla

The "Coming Soon" pin is still there as well, as this location was added with a different URL slug (lubbocksupercharger).

Good, well that means they will probably keep it public then once the big one opens. Means Lubbock is looking at having at least 2 Superchargers.

So, do they shut off the wall chargers after hours, that are right there on the same wall? Or do they have them set up to charge (for charging) also? Just wondering.

I can confirm they are on and they work.

Have you not read any of the posts in this thread?
YES, THE ANSWER IS YES!

 

[bharla]

Thank you, I am new to this website. A better route planner shows it to be so. the nav in our MS doesn’t show it as of yet. I am leaving from Santa Fe going to Wimberley, Tx(outside of Austin) and it would greatly shorten the trip if i can charge thru Lubbock, otherwise I need to go thru Amarillo. How many stalls are there? If it doesn’t show up on the car I won’t know how many are available. thank you for your reply.
