Supercharger - San Diego, CA - Del Mar Heights Road (CLOSED 16 Sep 2021, 18 urban stalls)

busy Friday night

Well, that was sarcasm with a photo of an empty lot — but the upload failed

The first floor of the parking structure is kind of a mess, with 3 entrances and 3 exits. Lots of intersections and low-visibility corners.

Full after one week

Shocking. In the middle of the day it was full while Qualcomm had openings!
La Costa and of course downtown are never completely full.
But even if full, the average wait for the car next in line should only be 2.5 minutes mathematically.

Seems like lunch time - especially on weekends - will be crowded given the eateries here

Rounding the corners going up is pretty tight. Already almost got hit by some bozo who thought it would be cool to floor it when leaving and took the turn incredibly wide.

Another drawback. At night the overhead lights are many and very bright making it almost impossible to take a nap while charging. La Costa is way better for naps with far fewer lights.

Tesla is calling this “San Diego, CA - Del Mar Heights Road Supercharger”. Can the thread be renamed accordingly?

Agree..there is going to be a fender bender there..poor design IMO.

I just went there for the first time, and it's tight but they have bubble mirrors at the turns to help see around the corner. Not that others can be trusted to use it, but nice to know for yourself.

Noon on Friday...parking structure packed..3 ICE vehicles in Tesla spots. "Talked" to one of them..didn't seem to give a s.hit. Think a problem going forward at busy times.

and the Del Mar Fair starts up, adding some additional traffic in the area....

In addition to previous posts about small lanes, be extra careful of those large trucks with tow hitches. They stick out 6-8 inches beyond the truck's tailgate.

Without fail, every single time I'm here.

P.S. to Ian W, you left both of your ($240+) receipts from Jake's; you're a pretty bad tipper.

It is a sad statement about how some people are just pigs no matter what they drive.

Del Mar needs a trash can, just like La Costa already has.
I couldn't find one when I was there charging recently.
San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano and Temecula have trash cans nearby.

BTW, it's illegal in CA (don't know about other states) to leave a removable hitch on a vehicle when not in use.

Definitely. I messaged them here a week ago to no avail.
