Supercharger - Roscoe, NY

[MaturinNYC]

I wonder if the diner will notice a business increase now that the Supercharger is open. They're usually pretty busy, it's basically the only convenient diner along that stretch of 17.

They’ll be getting some business from me tomorrow that’s certain! This is great news for winter-time travel on 17. Whenever it’s warmish you can make the run to Binghamton no worries, but I’ve spent more than a few winter nights nursing electrons along the Delaware for the past six years, so this is just great. Probably will only be a 15 min top off but makes all the difference having it. Thanks all for the great coverage and webcam shots!

I’m charging now - getting 94 kW (the max I ever get is 95).

I hope those semis find another parking spot!

Congrats on getting it first (in the game, that is).

Question: why are the parking lot lights on during the day?

This ones parks away from the superchargers.

Not that it really matters since the Supercharger is open, but someone must’ve knocked the webcam too hard, because now I can’t see anything!

High winds today throughout NY State, gusts over 65 mph in some places, I bet that's what did it.

This is almost as good as the old "Roscoe Diner Finder" (does that date me?)

Stopped both ways on Cleveland-Hudson Valley round trip. How handy to get a bite to eat while the car does the same.
On the return visit, we had a conversation with the owner and got some of the back story.
Fascinating.

Stopped here yesterday for a quick charge heading downstate. When I got there, there was one car at the back charger, and one open spot right next to him. A pickup truck with a trailer was blocking the rest of the chargers. I was getting a very slow rate because of the pairing. The service at the diner was terrible and slow (I ordered something to go), and a woman came in yelling that she could not charge. They found the offender and got him to move.

This is a pretty good stop during the day. Probably a "pee in the bushes" stop after hours. Also, they need to re-stripe the parking spaces. They currently have it so the bollards are directly behind each parking space when they need to be just to the driver side where the chargeport is.

Actually I looked again when I went back to my car and noticed there are actually 7 parking stalls striped for 8 bollards, so the ones on the end line up reasonably well but in the middle they are off by as much as a half car-width.

And yes, the LED overhead lights were blazing even though I was there in the middle of the day. I guess they leave them on 24/7?

I use this station frequently but it's a 150kw station, not 120kw like it saying on supercharger.info. How do i get them to change it on their website?

Roscoe has disappeared from my nav. Is it just me? I see it on the app, but “send to car” doesn’t work.

I wonder if this is a sign of Tesla casting a Magic Dock spell on the site?

I also see that it is not showing in-car on the nav right now. It shows in the app as 8 stalls available - when I "Send to car" it results in this:

That was my first thought too, but I think it might be wishful thinking to think that they would put a Magic Dock on a V2 site. But who knows...Maybe it actually makes MORE sense to offer CCS at sites that more closely match the charge rates of the cars that will use them.

Or upgrade to v3 and add the "magic doc" at the same time

Same for me. Tully also. I don’t think it is magic dock related. I did charge at a couple of sites with magic dock.
