Wiki Superchargers Visited

I see you Beaver! Looks like you got decent weather in Wyoming at least.

Of all places, WY now has a 14 day quarantine for anyone crossing the border. You’ll still stick out at Walmart wearing a mask though.

I think the key is to not stop! Other than at superchargers of course. He's at Rawlins right now.

Also, I would try to avoid getting pulled over. I can't imagine ole Smokey is gonna like seeing CA plates in WY right about now.

I will just tell the WHP that I know Bighorn.

Bedding down for the night here in Rawlins, WY. My sister has been safely handed over to her boyfriend, they are in a hotel and I am car camping. It's quite cozy actually, twin memory foam mattress and camp mode, already charged to 90%. This area is a bit sketchy so I will stay close to the hotel.

On a related note, in planning my route for tomorrow's ride home I realized that I missed recording one last year, added today to the spreadsheet:

July 3, 2019
Tooele, UT

Ok and I am off! I decided to cut south to Grand Junction, CO then on to Phoenix. I considered Tahoe but weather is bad there and in Salt Lake City.

270 miles for this leg will be my longest yet on a single charge. @Bighorn hasn’t done this leg yet, may be a good challenge for others, thanks for the tips and warnings Big. It’s hard with my P3-, a LR RWD with 18” Aeros in summer will be fine.

@EnrgyNDpndnce, do you have the (approximate) day of the first visit you made to each of those locations? They’ll want that info.

Also, welcome to the lunacy of this friendly competition.

 

[EnrgyNDpndnce]

@swaltner I could reasonably give month & year for each, getting it to the day would be a SWAG at best. So do you guys report every time you use a SC (even those you have already used), or only every time you use one for the first time?

They prefer it if we post our visits reasonably contemporaneously with the dates. In other words, don't save up six months of travels and then drop 65 new Superchargers into the mix!

If you scroll back several pages, you can see how most of us do it.

There are also games within the game such as how many "first" visits one attains and how many states one clears.

Just first visit. We track it in a spreadsheet (link in first post).

As @cpa says, people post their visits when they visit a supercharger, while on a trip, or when they return from their trip. First list (like yours) often goes back a bit, which is fine. Month/yr is fine, if that is the closest you have - we'll enter them as the last day of the month.

Have you looked in your supercharing history in the car? It may have a record of the actual date you visited the supercharger.

Wait, is that a seal on the bed?

Yes good eye! My son gave it to me when I left yesterday so that “I would sleep well and feels safe”. Cute pup

I had to stop for 30 miles charge at L2 in Rifle, CO as it was getting too tight. Strong 15-35 mph headwinds from SW, I made it 209 miles at 225 Wh/mi driving 50-60mph. We need a SCer in Rifle

@Half Dollar Bill

We really enjoyed staying at your Inn when passing through last October. Hope to come back by sometime after all these restrictions are over with! Stay safe and healthy!!!!!

 

[BM3B]

I didn't get as far as I wanted today, my route south was slow due to high winds and needing to range charge. Also I had to L2 charge in Rifle, wish I could have gotten a t-shirt.

New ones for me today, added to the spreadsheet

April 5, 2020
Grand Junction, CO
Moab, UT
Blanding, UT
Holbrook, AZ

Catch some winks in Flagstaff then power through Phoenix then back home. G'night all

If you think a seal on the bed is impressive, you should see this otter car!

I saw you near Blanding and Holbrook when I checked in on Glympse tonight. Jealous of that interesting route!

FWIW, I agree with your decision to avoid that winter storm in the Sierras. No need to take any chances there.

Holbrook->Flagstaff->PHX is kind of a strange route back to the Bay Area. I'm assuming you're going that way to catch more superchargers?

He’s headed to Pasadena on a pretty tight schedule. I’ve been trying to help him avoid the Flatbed of Shame

I see. I actually meant to change that to LA after I reviewed his "Location." But even then, why not just stay on I-40 over to LA? I'm assuming there are some superchargers he wants to hit in PHX or on I-10.

Not sure.
