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.

Hopefully the Tesla Wall Connector ability to bill people for charging will allow apartment complexes and condos to install a row of chargers that will pay for themselves and provide people overnight charging who don't have a single family home.

Another new charger in PA! Yeah!!

I am planning my summer holiday and I noticed that Kaunas Lithuania is not yet on the map. I might use it this summer.

We finished up our indirect trip to the Denver area.
Only 1 new to me site added the last day.

#338: Perry, OK

1,783 miles total, 11 new supercharger sites
The return trip in a week or so will likely be far less productive.
We've traveled between Toledo, OH, and Denver so many times that it's getting hard to chart a route to pick up many.

Nice sunset at Hamburg, PA today. Nice to have a V3 right off the highway. Will relieve pressure on V2 chargers in Harrisburg and Allentown which are often busy, and less convenient.

We add countries when there is interest. We’ll add Lithuania. If there are other countries you’d like added, glad to do it.

After a holiday and it’s too cold to collect new chargers break…

Did you charge there or just commenting on the charger?

Of course there is... because about an hour before this post my husband asked "are there any new chargers you can get today" and I checked the map and there were none. And we sat at home bored our of our minds, too cold to go outside.

I would like Estonia and Latvia, but Tesla has to build some superchargers there first.

For closer to "real time" information, go to supercharge.info and scan the recent openings.

Or follow https://twitter.com/superchargefeed?s=21 on Twitter, which tweets all supercharge.info updates so you don’t miss anything. This allows me to get push notifications on my phone.

I did charge there. My post at 1:53PM was while I was charging. Sorry, I should have mentioned that.

You have to watch TMC to get the earliest notification. It was posted to TMC, and @Thinkje liked the post before I saw it and updated supercharge.info.

I've also seen posts in TMC that are from FB or Twitter of the local club saying it is open, so even TMC isn't always the earliest notification.

This ^^^ and do so from the car, checking the in-car nav regularly for the random new-to-all-of-us sites that pop up without warning.

Thanks, Looks like I will be visiting that one in August and some more in Poland.

That's pretty much how I stumbled into a first at Summerton, SC. It wasn't operational before my trip so I ignored it on supercharge.info when planning. But then as we were driving up I-95, I saw it on the screen and thought to myself that it didn't look familiar.

I grabbed a first at Soledad (Front Street), CA this way. There was some planning activity previously, but this was a different location that just appeared seemingly out of nowhere. I noticed it on the nav about 90 minutes out ("hey what's this pin here that I never saw on the map before?"). Considering the minuscule amount of actual road-tripping we did last year I should have ran into the convenience store next door and bought a lottery ticket.

Anyways to echo a bunch of other people you want to be plugged into a bunch of different sources to catch those firsts. I do try to keep the California forum on TMC pretty current.

Bruce,

With the new maps and the changes wrought by a recent update, the Supercharger pins (without the vexing vertical stripe on the left-hand side of the screen) only appear when the map is pretty much dialed in to show about a ten-mile distance. When the screen is dialed out, the pins vanish.

They do remain on the screen, however, if the ridiculous vertical stripe is present that lists Superchargers in an increasing radius from one's present location. But that stripe eclipses about a quarter of the screen, give or take, so is useless for openings that are west of my present location (since I use permanent north "up" for my map setting.)

I scratch my head at the logic behind this presentation. One, the Superchargers are listed in increasing distance as the crow flies without regard to direction. A Supercharger 50 miles away going north on SR99 is listed just beneath a Supercharger 47 miles away at Harris Ranch which is in a southwesterly direction on Interstate 5. Two, why do we need to have that strip? The strip seems superfluous if we can show all the Superchargers at any aspect ratio for the map. This way we can see the Superchargers that are en route, or nearly en route. Three, (and maybe I am weird this way), I know where I am going when I travel. I don't need the pimply-faced software gurus telling me the routes to take when I travel. It is nice to have a large aspect ratio on the touchscreen that shows all the Superchargers that are not only on the highway I am taking, but those that are on other highways but in the vicinity.

It just seems to me that there should be a simple button for us: Show Superchargers" Yes/No. While driving around town and to familiar destinations we can switch it off. When traveling or in pursuit of new locations, switch it on.
