Managed to nail the car all over the place today and squeeze in 11kwh FOC earlier

Not sure if this has been posted but the good folk of Bradford are getting a 16 x v4 SuC at Cedar court at the end of M606 taken from the ToC UK twitter feed:-

That'll be a good addition and save me stopping at the god forsaken Hartshead Moor Eastbound services on my regular trips from Dublin to Leeds.

The Leeds SuC location is good but its a pain being right on the outskirts of the city which can be a nightmare at busy times.

I was in Cornwall this summer - these are sorely needed.

Plus V4s in Reading West

Could someone confirm this please? Not sure if implying the stalls are being swapped out or a Random comment

Can take a few days to be added to Nav / website. Generally seen as a ‘soft launch’ before the masses

London - Tottenham has now appeared on the Nav, App (for both Tesla and non-Tesla) and Tesla's find us map.

 

[CMc1]

Does anyone have an invoice via the app from Tottenham? Just want to see if 250 kW is noted there too under the stall serial number…

I think the ponies in that picture are identical to the ones in the photo just above from Reading - only difference is the trench has been back-filled.

It looks to me like the squarer square ponies are all ending up as V4 stalls - based on what I've seen in pictures so far from Tottenham, Reading Burghfield, Kingsley Village and Truro Treliske (which all now have V4 stalls).

Theory means Tretham could become a mix of V3 and V4… or are they too chamfered?

Latest TOGUK SuC sheet if interested to review. Some differences in info on there, like Ipswich.

Sounds like Woodall is back on the cards!! Hearing 66 kV double circuit infrastructure is being put in for support of “massive EV charging spot at the services”, towards the end of the year!

Current planning expires in July 2021 so might be some activity soon to keep it active.

Everything points at Woodall North going ahead later in the year - with power supply upgrade work by the DNO starting starting late autumn.

Southbound upgrade could be a a side project as a result of the upcoming power supply upgrade. But no evidence. Purely speculative.

Update on Woodall Northbound. Nearest substation is Kiveton Park and DNO upgrade work at that site to the Services has slipped from Autumn 2021 to now starting June 2022 due to contractual issues.

DNO work at Leeds Orbital Road / Thorpe Park (East Leeds marker) is also due to finished mid-September 2021. (Which aligns with Tesla’s Q3 2021 target).

I’ve got it on good authority that enabling works by NPG (supply increase) are being completed in June 2022 for Woodall’s new chargers. Should have been Autumn 2021 but contractual issues have made the timeline slip.

Before this is done there will be no V2 or V3 increases as power is already at grid capacity

Still confident on Woodall services. Bit of public evidence to support the upgrade works (first discussed in 2021!).. latest news as of a few weeks ago. Road closures booked as per link below

A total of 14 projects in 17 locations across the network operators region are set to benefit

This will be a good test of the theory. The new Trentham stall bases definitely look like the new squarer type, but having a mix of V3 & V4 on the same site could be messy/confusing if they are all then made available to non-Teslas. But surely a site like Trentham would want to be open for use by all EVs (I’m surprised it hasn’t already been opened up).
Let’s see what happens…

I wonder waht is situation with Tamworth SC at Moto on M42

The QR code takes you to a web receipt page with the basic summary info (date/time, duration, energy delivered, charging fees and documents).

The link here from ‘documents’ opens a more detailed PDF (VAT receipt) with the location of the site and the charge point serial number and next to that it says “ / 250 kW DC”

Thanks for confirming. I suspected they may have hinted at other capabilities within there. (They hinted at higher rates during previous demos “250 kW+” and prior to V4 being public.


FYI You can also find invoices (as well as rate last charge) in the Tesla app via
Profile > Account > charging > history > click the session > invoice

I asked about this last week: Wiki - UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

As far as I'm concerned, it can't come soon enough!

I looked at the cabinet rating plates at Tottenham and they are firmly 250 kW to the post.

Now made in China rather that Buffalo, NY (as the posts still are). Post though are rated out to 1000 VDC.

Aye.

As the chargers weren't on the map / Tesla app when I charged there, I never bothered to check. They went live on the map around 3pm yesterday.
