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.

Use the lasso tool in Tableau to export the list of superchargers on your to-do list in the area you'll be traveling through. I then import these to Google Sheets, remove unneeded columns, and check them off as I visit them. I usually spend a little time organizing the list so they are ordered in a way that is close to what I will likely be traveling.

Encircle all of the chargers you want to export

Then, use the download button in the lower right to export (use the "data" option). When that opens in a window, click the download option in upper right to export the csv, which you can then import to Google Sheets.

Very helpful tip - thank you! Certainly requires something beyond a smartphone to do. While on my road trips I typically do the bulk of my route pre-planning before departure and then write-in changes on a hardcopy I check off along the way. I try to update the spreadsheet per-stop, connectivity and smartphone app behavior permitting.

As long as you do the setup on a laptop or desktop, updating the trip spreadsheet on mobile is very easy. I save the link to my home screen so the spreadsheet is just one tap away.

That's awesome. I have to give that a try.

One of my challenges is keeping track which one I have visited as I go. The car shows all, tableau is 2 days behind

I use the 'Favorites' feature of the Tesla as a backup, it's built in and has yet to run out of favorites it can hold, just tap the star while you are visiting for the first time. Works great when I am navigating to a new Supercharger, if the star is filled it's not a new one. I keep the main list of what I have visited in the Superchargers app on my iPhone, it gets Supercharge.info updates too.

Then transcribe the data onto here when I get home.

 

[David99]

Added a few more. Based on my calculations I'm at 899 now.

That's the best idea ever! You can see right away if you visited it.

Cleared PA for now. They never stay cleared for very long.

Be safe out there. I feel asleep driving on I-80 until the MS yelled at me.

I visited Fairfax, Laurel - Fort Meade Rd, and Beltsville yesterday.

Congrats on a very productive weekend! I’ve pushed a Tableau update for you.

Today 6/5 added Temecula, CA (Temecula Pkwy). 250 kW charger that never got above about 85kW, even though I got there around 15%. Normally I’d switch stalls, but it was completely packed the whole time I was there.

That’s about right for an 8 stall V3 at full capacity without solar/battery.

 

[Bighorn]

Or a battery that’s not fully preconditioned.

 

[israndy]

No one LIVES in Temecula, anyone that drove there is probably all warmed up

(Randy throwing shade on Temeculites, uh, Temeculians? Temeculosians? Temeculans!)

Temeculatosis? Temeculocity? Temeculescence? OK, right - drifting off topic.

Interesting, I thought 250kW systems were powered to be able to provide the full 250k to all stalls, guess that is not the case... I know I've been at other 250k setups that have been mostly full to full and have still gotten over 200kW up to 50% or so. And my battery had been preconditioning for at least 20 minutes in ~85F heat, so should have been plenty warmed up.

To set the record straight: Temeculite is a mineral primarily with CaCl2 and barium-type feldspar with streaks of serpentine. Temeculians (the ancient people from the Mar-a-lago region) were vanquished by the Persian Empire ca. AD 150. Temeculosian was their ancient language. Temeculan is a variation of Temeculian, used mainly by the Greeks in those days.

Temeculatosis is a potentially fatal lung disease brought on by mining temeculite due to the asbestos found in the serpentine streaks. Temeculosity measures the potential for temeculatosis. Temeculescence is just a made-up word.

You'll thank me later when you appear on Jeopardy!

V3 sites are usually limited by their utility connection. V3 charging cabinets have a maximum AC power input of 350 kW each. A two cabinet (usually 8 stall in the US, 6 in some other places) site maxes out at 700 kW unless it also has solar and/or batteries. Sites can be further limited by the utility transformer, which in some cases can be as little as 500 kW for an 8 stall V3, although 750 kW is far more common. 700 kW / 8 charging posts = 87.5 kW per charge post when fully loaded. As cars charge up and their charge rates taper, more power becomes available for new arrivals, so there will be times when a full site will still deliver high charge rates.
