Supercharger - San Clemente, CA (LIVE 18 Nov 2017, 49 V3 stalls)
- Thread starter emupilot
- Start date
I'm just waiting in Hawthorne and looking at the supercharger statistics on Tesla's display. Over the last 24 hours, 7 out of the 10 busiest Superchargers worldwide are in California. San Clemente is #2 with 10,500 kWh delivered.
I'm not sure when the upgrade happened, but SC is now hitting 150kW.
Yes, I linked to that thread in the Model 3 forum as an example. The point is that faster charge rates are not specific to this San Clemente Supercharger location.
Somewhere between now and then Tesla has expanded the stall capacity to 21 now. I was there over a very crowded Memorial Day and stopped for lunch. I waited one minute for a stall to become available and started charging at 31kW on a shared cabinet. 15 minutes while I was standing in line to order lunch, my charging speed was 81kW. After ordering, I went down to move the car so others could charge. I was impressed that in just 30 minutes at a crowded lot that I was able to get 160 range miles added to our "classic S85."
I'm not clear on this. I also arrived after midnight on a Friday night and could not find a path to the chargers, since there are closed gates. Is there a path to the chargers when the gates are closed? I've marked the two gates I saw on the map, I assume there are others.
Above post is incorrect as the access through the parking structure is also closed after hours. To get to the chargers, you basically want to go around the back of the mall. The access gate is at the north end of the mall
When I charged here after hours (over a year ago now), I too drove around for a while trying to figure it out. Security saw me and led me to the gate near Ruby's Diner on the screenshot where they let me in. But they did instruct me to exit by driving around the back side of the mall so I assume that is the route that is typically ungated after hours.

When the gates are closed, so are the gates in the garage. You cannot go through the garage after hours. You need to enter from the north and drive around the back of the mall:
For the past week I’ve noticed a small construction site on the opposite site of the shops property from the existing Superchargers. But today, I noticed that the dig site and the trenching they were working on looked suspiciously like a Tesla Supercharger site in preparation. So, I asked, “What are you guys working on?”. To which he replied, that they were putting in Tesla Supercharger. Asked how many chargers, he replied that it’ll be eight (8) more chargers. They’re located precisely on the opposite end of the shops building, next to the open ground expansion area.
