Supercharger - Markham - Markville, ON

[MarcoRP]

Thanks for the info. #ConfirmationOfInsufficientPortapotty???

Obviously, the parking will be challenging at this angle, especially backing up against gravity.

Meh. It'll be a non issue when they roll out the long rumoured maglev mode in the next OTA update.

Update.

There are 19 conduit pipes coming up from the ground.
Just one missing from one spot, looks like it fell down into the trench.
Looks to be 20 supercharging spots at the Markham location!

FLO charging spots are dark and coned off. Still not online.

Someone added this location on PlugShare... a wee bit early. Photos included:

20 will be amazing! They're trying to show something to Daimler at the other end

It seems like they are doing a lot of 20 unit builds these days - the second one in Barrie is an example.

This morning, on PlugShare, there were 3 new photos a two new locations, 1 at Walmart with 5 CCS/CHAdeMO sets and 1 at Hudson Bay with 1 CCS/CHAdeMO set which I think is the new flo ones. Anyone know about these? Photos:

Those photo's are one week old or more, they are of the Tesla supercharger construction area.

The chargers are absolutely not beside Wallmart. Wallmart is the opposite side of that mall.

Hudsons Bay might be listed because it abuts the 4 meter concrete wall where the current FLO chargers are located.

I drove to the entrance to Hudsons Bay as that underground parking is under construction and I was curious if there were any other charging bays going up. I didn't see any.

I suspect the plugshare entry is bogus.

How far is this project from being completed?

 

[rpm001]

Just guessing it's another month out... Even after the construction completes it seems to take a while to get things tested and turned on.

 

[SmartElectric]

Progress.
Trenching in the 4 conduit from the power pole at the street to the concrete pad for the transformer.

if only they will add a mobile service center there too that opens later...my x is having this annoying tire pressure warnings that comes and goes, it doesn't make sense for a car to have such a warning 1st year in...right?

 

[skhenry81]

Sounds like you have a leak in your tire.

 

[wayner]

Did the temperature warnings just start in the last week or so? Could be the cold weather. Add a bit of air.

 

[skhenry81]

Do you get an indication of which tire has an issue?

 

[hnwa]

thanks for all your concerns, the indicator seems to indicate different tires at different times saying 2.5 or 2.6 bar, I can't really say...
but yes, it did happen during the weather change since last week.

 

[SmartElectric]

Back on topic.

FYI

The supercharge.info details for Markham list 8 charging bays, but the other under construction sites list many more.
I have confirmed it's 20 bays.

@BlueShift 20 stalls tnx

Same thing happened to me - I got the warning last week when the temp fell below zero for the first time. I haven't bothered filling up as I haven't driven much and Go tire is coming to put on my winter tires this evening.

What pressure are you supposed to have? Mine are closer to 3 bar
