It's not happening until there's construction. Need. Orange. Cone.
Aren't we* all? I mean, I-44 splitter, US-62, US-277, US-281. Who wouldn't want one there?
* Supercharger nerds and Tesla owners who drive in Oklahoma.
So I'm not just being selfish because I have family there? It actually IS a very strategic location right? That's what I've thought for a year now.
Lawton, OK? Noooo. Not selfish. Selfish would be saying Tesla should put it there before a V3 OKC and Henryetta, OK.
You might also say Wichita Falls, TX should come ahead of Lawton, OK, but:
- Wichita Falls, TX to OKC is 135 miles so it needs a splitter anyway, Lawton, OK is the biggest place between the two (90k) and would split about 50/85.
- Tesla has Vernon, TX on the map for 2023Q4 which would make a Wichita Falls, TX less beneficial.
- If they then added Seymour, TX, that's is 100 mile from Lawton, OK and would connect Abilene, TX to Wichita Falls, TX _plus_ make a more distant (170 miles) connect to Lubbock.
I should add that MapBox says it's better for both I-35 and I-44 then the Sheridan Ave location and given the permit activity I'll probably be updating my splitters.
Come on, come on, Bake that dude.

This is great news. This location is at a brand new Homeland that was built in 2021 to alleviate a USDA declared "food desert" area. It's just North of the state capitol and very reachable from I-44 and I-35.
It should help the OKC I-40 charger load. As I've been checking Ardmore's status daily, I've noticed the I-40 OKC charger has had long wait times for 6 days in a row, multiple times a day. I suspect the Tesla rental cars at Will Rogers airport just South are not helping.

189 miles from the Ft Smith Supercharger, which is a slight improvement, but do-able for most Teslas, except perhaps in the depths of winter.
Tesla still needs a Supercharger to bisect this section of I-40.

Everybody's waiting for Henryetta-ta-ta-ta.

Triple Alternative Splitter! Also seems better for travel through on I-35 or I-44 than the W Sheridan Ave location.
On I-35 splits 155.2 miles, 99.4 miles from Ardmore, OK, 57.9 miles to Perry, OK. That's #6 on the list.
On I-40 pathetically splits 194.4 miles, 14.5 miles from Oklahoma City, OK, 187.9 miles to Van Buren, AR. That's #2 on the list.
On I-44 splits 242.1 miles, 144.3 miles from Wichita Falls, TX, 99.8 miles to Tulsa, OK. That's #1 on the list.

Yeah.. What's up with this L2 chargers? Are these "Destination" chargers like the one I charge with at home? I am not understanding why they're not all V3.
That's exactly what they are. Think employee charging and customers eating Leo's BBQ inside the Homeland. Speed is not needed if you're there working all day and it keeps them working instead of running out to disconnect to avoid fees. Very forward thinking. More businesses need to think this way.
We desperately need more destination chargers at locations where people spend at least a few hours. I hope with the new Universal Wall Connector we see a push for more and bigger installs with reasonable billing per kWh. I imagine $0.10-0.15 per kWh would make the install cost neutral in a short period for the host.
I agree completely.
Sidebar, we charged at the Grapevine charger yesterday before going to Pappadeaux. It was TOTALLY empty @ 10am. So was the new one a few blocks West. I almost checked the news feeds to see if the world had come to an end and we missed it. That was a first.
