Supercharger - Wareham, MA

[Tdreamer]

Did you by chance try each of the five lit pedestals? I found one of the chestnut hill stalls was not working for me the other day but the one next to it was. This was they day it went live. Could be a similar case here

Just tried it for the heck of it. 4A is working so I’m assuming the lit ones are operational at least for now.

Ten of the twelve stalls appear operational (illuminated ). 5A and 5B are dark and not working yet. The construction crew’s trailer is still onsite and they still have a little more work to do before moving on to their next project. Finish signs, stripe the stalls, fix 5A&B and maybe the missing light post, although I suspect lighting is subcontracted out. Was getting 84kW on 4B at a 50% SoC which is reasonable. Assume this will take a while to show up on the nav and Tesla website as all new sites typically do.

supercharge.info only lists this location as having 5 stalls -- but the pics and discussion indicate 12.

Station not really officially open yet; guys still working on various stalls as of 13:45, 1/16/20

I suspect if I park in a stall not being worked on, I'm going to get a lot of (justified) dirty looks from the guys working on a neighboring stall...

 

[fortelectric]

So not sure why the Superchargers app is listing this location as officially open, as of yesterday...

Ok, they seem to just be installing lights...

Ok, I'm charging. Stall 6B. Here's the low rate I'm charging at (Elon punishes free-for-life charging Model S owners who ... "overuse" superchargers, by deliberately throttling them):

All you Model 3 owners can laugh.

Yikes, 37kW seems extremely low. Is there a chance you battery was just very cold?
I would love to see data from the car here to see what the limiting factor really is.
Or perhaps it's just because they are not fully online yet and some of the banks are still disabled.

New lines, new lights, and no waiting.

Cosi at Wareham Crossing closed in December . That is going to disrupt my summer plans!

Charging question. At Wareham and the kW have steadily gone down as charging. I expected it to drop beginning at maybe 80% charge, but charge started at 86 kW at 33% battery charge, and then gradually decreased to 42 kW at 75% battery charge. I’m leaving now at 80% battery charge, charging at 38 kW.

Is that normal, or is there an issue with the station or my car? Model X and there are no other cars. Thank you.

Think I found my answer on teslatap.com

The outside temp of 18 degrees and normal tapering probably explains it

That looks about right. This is a v2 supercharger though, so the taper rate maybe slightly different - but the same idea applies.

I just tried 5B and it’s not working yet. Message on the dash was to check the charging cable, but it was secure in the receptacle. I switched to 1A and juicing at 65kw (50% soc).

Wareham Supercharger is now on the map on the dashboard. Not showing stall occupancy status for me yet.
