Supercharger - San Clemente, CA - Avenida Vista Hermosa (EXPANDED Feb 2022, 16 V3 stalls)

[Bacalao]

Target on the corner of Vista Hermosa and La Pata.
Saw this on my mountain bike ride from up above. The crew said they will be done in a week. Combo of V3 and V2 SCs.
This is 2 miles from the San Clemente Outlet SCs.

Nice find !! @Chuq the outlet chargers are getting worn and broken down and V3 here is great !

Damn it!! I was about to post a thread for the permit!

This was actually helpful, the permitting site identifies the number of charging locations - 12 (though later on I realized it was obvious from the number of supercharging cabinets in the image). I've created the location on supercharge.info.

I believe it should say it's a combination of V3 Superchargers (12 stalls) and L2 charging stations.

From the permit it appears there's 1 additional L2 charging station, so I believe you're correct.

Probably a chargepoint or something like it. Not uncommon with the Target locations.

This is crazy. Why would Tesla install a supercharger location so close to the Outlets? And San Juan Capistrano supercharger is only 7 miles away - although much smaller.
So many other locations not far away desperately need a supercharger. Escondido, El Cajon and Oceanside come to mind. Also the junction of Route 76 and I-15 already has many L2 chargers - perfect location for a supercharger station. I've checked the location and there's plenty of space available for one.

The outlets are one of the busiest supercharger stations in the US. Also, it seems Tesla takes into account the ease of securing rights and permits heavily into their location selection process.

Breaking news from the other end of the row!!

Today can confirm 12 SCs and 2 ChargePoints.

 

[gasisnasty]

Or maybe the outlets increased the rent.

Can't you dance around the Supercharger and speed up the install?

Does anyone know if this charger is online? Thanks.

It should show up in your nav if it is online. If it is not, the odds are extremely slim, as they are usually only delayed a day or two from go live to showing up in the nav.

Given that pics one week ago show no transformer installed (which is at the schedule of the utility, not Tesla or the property owner), I would put betting money that this site is still offline.

Just rode by on my bike again today. No not online. It still has the blue chain link barrier around. It’s all nice and clean and looks ready to go. Waiting on SDG&E to flip the switch.

Transformer is installed?

 

[totoro722]

Transformer is in, stalls are painted, only one ChargePoint charger is still waiting to be installed. Flip the switch!

To quote @MarcoRP “damn it”. You beat me to it. I was going to say..

I don’t have kids and I’m not an electrician so I don’t know the difference between a Transformer, Legos or Hot Wheels but there is a new big green box there now.
