here now - super busy - good turn over - on the brink of having a line - but no line so far - but site is full and busy - 60 kw charging rate - so not ideal!

 

[Kbra]

The Megapacks still there?

 

[MP3Mike]

They have two "Mobile Superchargers" now. They had one near Kettleman to help deal with the volume of cars there as well.

They had one at the Gustine supercharger as well when I stopped there on the 25th.

when I was there on sunday @ around noon - they had one Megapack and it was actually charging cars - the other Megapack on site was off to the side and the attendant said it was non-functional (no reason provided). I have no status as of today - cause I left yesterday when I was done charging.

Anyone been here lately? The new stations looked ready to go last November... surely they are fired up by now!?

 

[coredumperror]

Sadly, looks and permits are two entirely separate things. There was an SC somewhere out east that looked completely done and ready to use for two years, but was never turned on. They eventually tore it all out.

If you're talking about the one I think you are, it was a property dispute and improper contracts. That has no bearing on the expansion at the Madonna Inn Supercharger.

I was there about a week ago and all but two stalls were working. Two still had the "coming soon" cloth shrouds. There were only two of us charging mid-day.

I was just pointing out that the legal side of things can cause an otherwise "finished" Supercharger to not be "open".

But it was such an odd situation, it wasn't worth bringing to the thread.

It especially doesn't apply to an expansion of an existing site.

So does that mean of the 8 new stalls, 6 are now working? V2 / V3?'

Thanks!

Yes to the 6/8. I was in my S so not paying attention, but I’d say I suspect V3 based on gauge. I think 9A/B were the ones offline.

Only 4 of 8 of the new stalls are working (i.e. The V2 stalls). They have been up since Thanksgiving. The I believe that the V3 stalls are waiting on installation of the charging cabinet.

 

[BM3B]

I drove past four times this weekend since my hotel was nearby. the 4 stalls on the right are still wrapped and say “coming soon”. Each of the four times I saw a short line of 1-2 Tesla’s waiting to charge, the new normal.

 

[goldengate]

They've said "coming soon" since November... just wait until tomorrow.... SLO is a nightmare on holidays and you can expect some big lines tomorrow...

 

[Kbra]

The 4 coming soon stalls are V3. They've been done with construction for months. Just waiting on that paper.

To give some relief to this Supercharger, Tesla is now installing a Supercharger in Pismo Beach!!
