a call to a towing company or the cops wouldn't be untoward.
FYI - I just tried dialing ###-###-#### on my phone and it doesn't work. You might need to call your provider.I took the "Zero Emissions" license plate I got with the car and added "CONTACT INFO: ###-###-####" in a large font to it.
Don't show this to my wife otherwise I will have to make a trip to WI just to charge my car. She probably wishes that all SCs had this feature.At Marshall Auto Body in Wisconsin this is who keeps our charging stalls from being ICE'd.
I guess I just don't understand leaving your car at the supercharger overnight for any reason...even if you leave your phone number (which of course is better than not, but still).
If you're "keeping an eye on it" from your hotel room, just go move it!
People need to get out of the mindset that other people "won't need the charger", because they will.
That said, If I'm on the road at 3am and need a charge, there's generally a good reason for it and I don't have time to waste. So why should I have to d*ck around with having to call someone's sorry *ss and waiting 12 minutes for them to move their chariot, and that's *if* they hear the phone?
I could sugarcoat that .
And the answer is because, in part, their approach saves *them* time.
There is no effective punishments for unethical people. The lack of ethics is not illegal. This holds true for more important issues than Super Charging.Charge for parking after the first 60 minutes, nobody promised free parking.
Because it's about probabilities. If there's a 2% chance that someone will need my occupied stall at 3am, why should I be inconvenienced 100% of the time to accommodate that?
Or if you have to wait 12 minutes (poor thing!) for someone to come move their car at 3am, everyone is slightly (equally) inconvenienced.
So you're saying everyone else should be inconvenienced 100% of the time, just in case you pull up at 3am, so you are never inconvenienced?
Right.
I charge the car to 90% and move it to a parking space. When I wake up the next morning I move it to a supercharger stall and set it at 100% before going to breakfast if I need the last 10%. By the time I have breakfast and am packed and ready to go, the car is at 100% or close enough.Simple... if I'm staying overnight and I need a full range charge the next day, it's very bad for the longevity of the battery to do that the night before and leave it fully charged overnight. It can also take 30 to 60 minutes for a 100% range charge to actually complete. So when I pull in, I'll set the car to charge to 80% or 90%, and then when I wake up, immediately set it to charge to 100%.. so by the time I get out there an hour later, the car is 100% charged
I'm the green Model S with the hitch mounted rack and four bikes. I picked the end to not overtake more than one space.
I come back 15 minutes later and this happened. Unreal.
If it's my time you have no problem wasting, then fine. But you've agreed to have your time wasted. I didn't.
So here's what I'll do. Maybe I'll call and maybe I won't. Maybe you don't hear the phone and maybe I just cut out the middleman and call the towing company or cops directly. Maybe they don't see your note either and just tow you and/or write the ticket. Maybe the noise or flashing lights will wake you up.
Reasonableness - it's what's for breakfast anymore.
