Wiki Superchargers Visited

**** NOTE: We have transitioned to a new platform ****
More Info: Supercharging.Life database​

This is a friendly contest for Tesla owners to track the number of unique public Superchargers where they have charged

- "Supercharger count" is the number of unique public Superchargers where you have charged (just being there does not count), whether or not you were the person plugging in the vehicle (such as a Valet Parking garage or a Passenger) and whether or not it was your own personal vehicle (such as a rental, a loaner, or a friend's Tesla) as long as you were the one who drove >50% of the distance to reach the charger(s).
- The list of chargers in the supercharging.life database are the ones included in the game. If you think one should be added or removed from the list, let us know.
- Only chargers available to the public without special permission are included in the game.
- Chargers not connected to the grid are not counted.
- Doublet locations like the North/South Supercharger 'pairs' in CT, ME, NH, etc. count as individual locations.
- More than 1 charger at the same address, such as Lenox Square Mall (Atlanta, GA) or Montgomery Mall (Bethesda, MD) count as individual locations when they appear as a separate location on the Tesla Nav screen.
- Inactive competitors will be archived and removed from the leaderboard. Just post an update to be reactivated.

See Supercharging.Life database for info on how to post your own visits to the database (preferred), or post your locations with date visited to this thread and one of the admins will update your list for you. All visits must be posted to this thread - not just entered in supercharging.life. If you are the first in the game to visit a supercharger location, please post to the thread as soon as you can so others know it has been visited.

@PLUS EV - I've made the timeline map for you to help me avoid focusing on the other stuff that is happening tonight.

Go to the Supercharger timeline dashboard. It will default to 11/19/2012, the day the first superchargers came online. You then have several options on moving through the timeline.

You can move forward and back one opening date at a time by clicking the left and right buttons beside the date entry.

You can jump to a specific Open Date by clicking on the date entry and picking the next date from the list. You can also just drag the slider below the date.

Another option is to "play" the growth by clicking the play stop buttons. This isn't particularly quick but is pretty neat.

Finally, the "Show history" toggle determines whether all the superchargers opened before that date will also show up on the map or just the superchargers that opened ON that date. Show history is on by default.

Here is the map as of 5/8/2014.

Who else remembers "The Island of Texas"?

Who else remembers "The Island of Texas"?

That was a little before my time but I remember reading about it on the forum.

I do remember having to drive through Oklahoma to get from Phoenix to New Orleans on my first big Tesla cross country trip in 2016 though!

Well the plan was to clear but I'm not going to make it to a couple.

Interesting interaction at a Border Patrol checkpoint north of Brownsville TX. They were perplexed at me being alone so far away from home. I tried to explain the game but he wasn't getting it. While he chatted me up, he waved over a couple of drug sniffing dogs and they did a good tour of the outside of the car. I'm glad to be out of South Texas, I have never seen such a concentrated law enforcement presence over such a wide area. Border Patrol everywhere, surveillance balloons, helicopters, state, county and city police. Even as a well-to-do, white, citizen, driving the speed limit, I felt very on edge.

I felt uncomfortable in Texas after being snagged in that dodgy speed trap in Rosebud. Not quite Mexico uncomfortable, but when I was stopped again for a dirty car in Mississippi, it only exacerbated that feeling of being “other” and with compromised rights.

Took me 3 days on one clearance effort.

 

[PLUS EV]

3 days is normal for Texas if you are trying to "clear" it.

Those interior "border" checkpoints should be unconstitutional but they have been upheld by the Supreme Court so here we are. And yes, they drive me nuts, even when they just wave me through. When I was gambling on the road a lot in the Southwest, I literally had to plan trips around trying to avoid them just to be safe. And rather hilariously you could avoid the one on I-15 in San Diego County by taking the backroads from Pala to Pechanga Casino, which was usually the route I wanted to take anyway. But seriously, if I could figure it out, you would think some guy carrying narcotics could easily do the same, so it makes you wonder what the point is.

My window regulator was going bad and I had to lower the window for border agents. Wouldn’t go back up in sandstorm territory with thunderstorms forecast. Wrestled it up by hand at the next supercharger, then had Phoenix service replace the regulator by showing up at opening. Twice there now. We should have a contest for on the road service visits

How about for lowest SOC upon arrival at a supercharger? Or closest-but-didn't-quite-make-it to a supercharger?

I'll pass on that particular competition, thank you.

I think we already have some competitors with distances measured in feet that would be hard to beat.

 

[bmah]

This showed up in my YouTube recommendations just now.

What is this Supercharging thing they're talking about?

Bruce.

 

[juliusa]

Tell me about it. I regret to inform you that Oregon is officially known as my "drive-over state."

Looks like you'll have some new ones to visit your next "drive-over".

Hillsboro looks close too.

Super mad that I was there this week, really thought the Bellevue WA one was gonna open the week I was there too. Guess I'll be going back that way sooner rather than later. But now I have a bunch of new ones in LA again. Seems impossible to even keep one coast clear, how do people keep the whole country clear?

They don’t have a life.

They don’t have a life.

I don't know about that. But it is certainly easier if you don't have a job!
