    I’m assuming it’s a replacement of V2’s for V3 or an entirely new station. They probably have enough charging session data to know its always a packed station.

    I believe they only have one CHAdeMO plug there. You could use it with the $400 Tesla CHAdeMO adapter but it would only charge at up to 50 kW. That's a lot slower than a typical Supercharger charging session but would be better than a level 2 charge.

    If Tesla ever comes out with a CCS adapter, you could charge at any of the 4 CCS plugs.

    It's odd as they just added 4 more v2 stations. If they were going to upgrade the existing location to v3, you'd think they would've added 4 v3 and then eventually converted the other 8 over to v3.

    If they put in a new V3 at least put it at the Frisco exit, but better yet would be the west side of Vail pass

    I agree that was odd why add two v2 cabinets when they could have added one v3 cabinet for those 4 stalls. I wonder if power coming in has something to do with it since I feel like even in summer it’s always slow.

    Wow, the Silverthorne supercharger was a zoo this morning. Sad. It didn't help that one stall was ICE'd, a charging Tesla blocked two stalls, and one stall was broken.
