[darinmcleskey]

Multiple reports on Facebook indicate it is fully functional as of today.

I must have missed @Nville S just by a whiplash. Charging was relatively slow for me: starting with 28kW @ 72% in my MX75. There was also a report of slow changing on Facebook. So if you are in a hurry you might wanna skip this charger unless someone confirms the rusty electrons are flushed out and the charger can do it’s promised 250kW. Glad that we are finally live after a promised 2018 opening.

That sounds normal. A 75D is incapable of charging at 250 kW. I don't even think they can do 150 kW. 28 kW doesn't seem too far off for a battery that's at 72% and hasn't been fully conditioned, which it wouldn't be if you were coming from Novi, even if you navigated to the Supercharger. Fully heating the battery takes at least thirty minutes in most cases.

Had to post my picture of charging too

Location is showing temporary out of service. Anyone know what's going on or how long it will be out?

 

[Bighorn]

Open on nav now.

All 12 appear operational and I got over 240 kW.

I stopped by yesterday since I was driving by and I saw one person charging. Side note, how hard is it for people to not throw their trash on the ground. I picked up some random trash that was sitting near the equipment area and took it home to throw away, but it's just so sad that people can't handle their own trash. There's a gas station with open trash cans right around the corner, or just throw it in your frunk and dispose of it later.

Awesome! Whatever glitch they had was resolved quickly. I plan on traveling to that side of the state over the weekend and charging there. Good to know. Thanks.

 

[bjakub82]

I was here twice over the weekend. Pulled in with 26% and 20% respectively and both times hit 250kW. Great stop with Meijer and food options.

Excellent location, walking distance to J.Alexanders!

I would consider myself someone that doesn't mind walking, but even I wouldn't really consider that "walking distance" given the timespan of a typical charging session. Google Maps walking directions give a 19 minute walk, so just there and back you're looking at most of a charging session.
