Supercharger - Markham - Markville, ON

[wayner]

I think it can depend on the tire. My current ones are Michelin 245/45R19 . I believe for those tires the recommendation is 3.1 bar or 45 psi. 21 inch may be different.

 

[mrElbe]

3.1 bar or 45 lbs is the recommended pressure.

Any updates on this one? Going to be close tonight and will have to go to Lawrence again if it's not up. May be worth a drive over to see it

Nothing new. Weather is poor. Site covered in tarps.

Thanks! I guess it's speed limit home

Hope they can make it before Christmas, then we can have some temporary VIP parking lol

Charging situation: living in condo, management won't start installation until 2018; Work chargers always occupied, have to fight for it like a table for dimsum...

Was there over the weekend, didn't look like much progress had happened. Mall was FULL by about 11AM on Saturday. Meaning all spots were filled up. I really truly believe there will be a lot of ICEing here.

I hope that they can some how enforce parking, I really see this as a problem too. Vaughn mills too.

Lucky you. My condo shot down my request.

"Your information has been reviewed by the Board, similar information on this topic has also been discussed in the previous Shared Facilities Committee meetings with presentations from contractors. At this point, the Board decided to defer proceeding on this until EV charging station technology becomes more advanced and prevalent, and the demand and usage of EVs is higher among condominium residents. Nevertheless, your information is a good reference and will be kept in file together with other sources of information we have on hand for further consideration in the future. Thanks!"

time for legislation change Plug-in problem: Condos saying no to charging stations for electric vehicles

 

[wayner]

That wording from Snoopy is almost the same as what is in the Toronto Star article. This is why Tesla is starting to build urban SCs.

status
- looks like they opened some boxes
- conduit to city pole stops 4m short of pole
- I count 10 concrete pads
- not much concrete work completed when compared to Concord Supercharger
(another Tesla (Black) was caught sniffing )

 

[Avronp]

Other pads are covered - 5 light stand posts or are these for signs or better - a solar roof

Are you sure that you're not just dreaming?

I think my statement was a bit optimistic...meant to say condo needs board approval and MAYBE implementation starts in 2018/2019..
But I have hope!
My place is relatively new, 5 years, mixed use ground floor, commercial (i.e. TD, restaurant), best of all its Downtown!......Markham......

My condo is in Markham Centre and it's 8 years old. I'm lucky, my office has a few charging stations so I can at least use them until my condo decides to come out of the dark ages.

 

[MarcoRP]

Should we make a new thread about condo charging? There are a few already so we can either revive one or make a new one. Has anyone heard rve.ca ? It's a site for charging at your condo but it might be only in Quebec

 

[Doug_G]

Certainly condo discussions don't belong in the Supercharging section.

 

[MarcoRP]

I know that, but there a lot of chatting about that here.

Lets get another updated picture in here so we can be back on topic!

note: weather was great for the past 2 days in Markham, must have lots of progress!
