    I found another permit for a Supercharger, this time in San Diego, at the Target on 8251 Mira Mesa Boulevard. I don’t know the number of stalls right now or power, but am certain it will be a Supercharger seen as this is one of the locations mentioned in the Target agreement. Will add on Supercharge Info. Enjoy!!

    This location will be great when visiting the San Diego area. Hopefully this site will be a V3 Supercharger.

    Since there is only 8 stalls, it might be 250KW version. It doesn't really make sense to install only 8 72KW urban charger unless they are severely limited in power.

    Hopefully V3 they opened one at target in Chula Vista and it’s V3 version ...not that it matters to me though as Tesla throttled my supercharging anyway ;):eek::eek::(

    Pardon my ignorance but why aren’t they only doing V3 chargers now?

    1. Urban superchargers are V2 and sites that Tesla wants to use those are still being designed and will continue to be built going forward.
    2. There are still a few old sites that have been very, very slowly working their way through the planning and development process that were originally designed as traditional-style V2 (i.e. 150 kW) before Tesla made the switch to V3 and Tesla has chosen to keep them that way instead of redesigning the site and starting the approval process all over again. But there are very few of this type left.

    Tesla wants its urban chargers to mostly be v2 because they’re smaller, allowing more to be built in tighter spaces. The thinking is also that people will shop, eat, etc while charging at urban chargers

    I think cost (including peak demand charges for electricity) is much more of a concern than size, though there may be a few places where the smaller urban pedestals make a difference. Also, there may be a thought that urban chargers, with their slower speeds, are less attractive to people living nearby as an alternative to home charging.

    In any case, I don't think we know the number of stalls for sure yet? Supercharge.info sometimes lists 8 stalls as a guess for new locations.

    How's that Nov. construction looking? We had planned to be in the area by the end of Nov. but my Dad passed and it's looking more like the end of Jan. now. This would be a welcome SC when we are there as we frequent that area while staying.

    The contractor from Granada and Playa was added to the permit on November 12. Construction may now be underway

    P.S. Permit valuation is at $500,000 so I'm expecting it to be V3

    From their latest on their site, the location looks to be closer to the 15. By the target feels too close to the Qualcomm charger. Curious, they have a new construction off of Scripps Poway Pkwy, wonder why they're not adding more on the east side of the 15.

    I’ve heard tesla puts a pin in the geographical center of the city, not necessarily where the chargers will be. Is that true?
