Supercharger - Miner, MO

[grichard]

Sorry--I probably won't be able to get back down there. I drove down from St. Louis to satisfy my curiosity, but it's a lot of time to kill. I'd love to see new pictures, too, if anybody is down that way.

It would be amazingly awesome if it would open before we leave on our trip to Disney World June 3 !!!

Even tempted to drive down to Lambert's in an ICE to check it out. LOL

Any news is welcome.

Planning to drive to Tennessee around the same time. If this charger is open ill take the car, otherwise the old truck will have to do

When we head that way our destination is Little Rock, Now we do stop in Memphis for BBQ. Still last year we stopped and needed to stay for 3 plus hours to get enough juice to make it from Memphis to Little Rock. The J1772s only charged at a rate of about 18 miles per hour. The only reason we were able to have a short of a charge was because we left Sikeston with a 100% full charge. With the SC in Minor and Memphis we could do the whole trip in 1 day. Rather then over 2 days. The 1 in Minor makes it so we could do it in 1 very long day.

I live 7 walkable blocks from the 2nd location Central BBQ, and I have a 80 amp HPWC in the garage. I'm not on plugshare but PM me if you want 20 kW of electricity while getting some decent BBQ.

A little birdie told me this location should be open in a week or two...

Sounds great, but likely that Memphis will have a SC next time we head to Little Rock.

Did you upload a photo? If so, it is not showing. Thanks.

I kept working on it, I can see it now, can you?

 

[ThinkingAboutIt]

Yes, perfect. It looks done. Thank you. Do we have a hookup with the transformer and did you see a meter installed?

 

[Guy V]

I am not electrical enough to figure that out. I took this picture before a grounds worker chased us away:

Could that be a dummy cover where a meter would go? At the St. Charles SC and Effingham the meters were on the backside of Tesla's enclosure but I wasn't able to make it back there before being routed.

 

[ThinkingAboutIt]

Thanks for the new picture. I am certainly not an expert myself either. But it sure like an installed transformer and a meter. I think all is needed is a Tesla testing and activation.

The SuC is being built behind the Ruby Tuesday. I spoke with the manager there today. She indicated the SuC should be complete by end-of-May or first week of June by the construction workers estimates.

This is terrific news. Just got back from a trip to Kansas City from Savannah, GA. This SC would have saved me miles. Had to route through Asheville, NC and Louisville to get there.
