Adelanto has no Target store

Apple Valley? Hesperia? That area is so developed hard to tell where one is...

Sorry, I meant Hesperia! That area is growing and running together!

Can't say I'm going there anytime soon...I remember the hi desert before everyone moved there and ruined it...

There's a separate thread about Adelanto charger. I've been going by Adelanto about once a month for the last few months. I really question the need for it. Kramer Junction would be the more important charger to be built.

Both Palmdale and Kramer Junction would be much better diversions when Mojave and Inyokern goes down.

I think the Adelanto Supercharger was an easy location to add into the system with the Target agreement. I agree Kramer Junction would be a good location otherwise you've got to go all the way into Mojave, which is often full. I've had to wait several times at that location.

Adelanto makes driving 395 to the Owens Valley from San Diego way more efficient. Without it you have to charge in the Inland Empire at a fairly high SoC to make it to Inyokern. Kramer Junction would also be nice depending on the vehicle and departure SoC.

Don’t see much change, needs a pour between the curbs and asphalt and maybe some paint for the lanes. 9/16/20

Hard to tell for sure when the equipment pads are behind the solid fencing. Can't see whether there are still any empty spaces (e.g. for the transformer).

Thanks for the report.

We should celebrate in some fashion when it goes live.

Checked on it yesterday. It looks almost done. Finally.

 

[ULEWZ]

That only looks like 10 stalls. Is there another 2 stalls hiding somewhere? Ah, I see the other 2 now, the handicapped stalls.

Thanks for the update! Any evidence that the local electric utility has connected to the Tesla equipment yet? I do not recall ever seeing a local utility's equipment located inside the Tesla equipment enclosure at any SC site, but it's nearby when it's not sitting right next to the enclosure. Is there a new big green utility transformer somewhere nearby? I see what might be a junction box behind yellow bollards across the lot to the northeast, but I can't tell if it's new.

We need to throw a party or picnic or something when it goes live.

Final inspection might take a while. Plus lane markings and parking stops.

Lane markings are there but faint. I saw some red markings too

For sure.

Could be waiting for City's Final inspection. Still some open trenches - most likely in case of any inspection issues!

 

[emchen]

open, open, open

open, open, open

Wait. Are you saying it's open, or are you hoping it's open?

Seems unlikely, Tesla site and others say under construction. It takes a few days for concrete or asphalt to cure before you put traffic loads on it.
