Supercharger - San Diego CA - A Street (LIVE 27 Jun 2018, 16 Urban type)

[AAARSINIC]

According to supercharge.info, it's officially open! Has anyone tried to charge there yet? Are they charging for parking?

Ill try and stop by this afternoon if nobody has before then.

Given the huge demand for San Diego SCs and the lack of available slots, I think it would be great if the standard car park $8/hr is charged. This would allow the people who need to charge to get one, and the ones that don't really need it, won't bother.

I would prefer a bid/ask free market trading strategy, where each parking gets to bid for a price each time (and pass it up if the price doesn’t suit them). The market would seek the right price over time.

This supercharger is finally live. Only two stalls used out of 16 when I was there.
Need to pay parking.

How much is parking?

 

[simhapriya]

I was there for 50min and paid $8. Inbelieve ut was $2 every 15min.

Just checked with the navigation in my M3, 8 of 16 stalls available, parking fees apply. Last I saw parking was $8 per hour or part thereof.

The stall info on tesla is incorrect. It said that 9 of 12 stalls were occupied the entire time when I was there. But only two were used. No one else was there. I would not really believe what tesla says from my experience with qualcomm site

Time for the Qualcomm party to relocate! Gotta pay a cover charge at this club though!

 

[GuyDude]

Woohoo! Finally! $8/hr is annoying....

I wonder if we can buy monthly passes at a discount?

I’ll stop and charge today to say I did...

 

[simhapriya]

It is $2 every 15min. So if you charge for 30min it is $4 and so on.

the parking fee is a great way to keep the crazy locals that keep going to quallcomm from ruining this location (of course, no change at quallcomm until Carlsbad opens, though)

The issue i think is that the charging spaces are at an angle, so tesla will not autopark. Worse is that space between two opposite rows of parking will just allow one car to go. So reversing car and driving out will be tricky and slow if most stalls are occupied.

It's always quicker if I park the car myself lol

+1.

I can't believe how many people are complaining about this not being FREE. It's almost as if they've never seen Qualcomm.

I'll fill up the cooler and pretend it's bottle service.

Just walked past ......CHARGER IS OPEN!! but nobody there.......YET!

On a sad note.....the attendant advised parking fees apply, so you are in for $2 for 15 Mins, $8 per hour, and $24 per day once you enter the lot.

There is currently no signage to direct you into the lot, so be aware the only entry is on "A" street between 5th st and 6th st., you take a ticket, and pay upon exit. They are opening 24/7 at some point in the future, so after hour charging will be available.

((On another note....the attendant on duty seemed uninformed on most of the questions I asked, so Im going to take a breath, wait a few days, and see what actually transpires on how this site works....will keep posting as things progress))

First world problems.

Any Supercharger stall is a good thing. Even if it is angled.
