    Supercharger - Mackay, Qld

    It seems probable that Tesla is the entity getting the Queensland Government co-funding for the Mackay charger, so it's worth noting that the Queensland Government list of co-funded locations says under the Mackay site: Sarina location is still being finalised (Sarina being about 30km south of...

    At the HomeCo in North Lakes. At least 8 V3 posts in the photographs, but that looks like three of the charge units which would generally mean at least 9. (Spotted in Plugshare by @Baymax44).

    Novated Leases

    There doesn't appear to be a general novated lease discussion, so I thought I'd kick one off with this question: When leasing a Tesla vehicle, did your leasing company order it from Tesla for you, or did you order it yourself then have the invoice changed to the NL company? If the NL company...

    Supercharger - Tenterfield, NSW

    The Tenterfield Supercharger appears to be near complete (from Trent Petronaitis on Facebook): Definitely appears to be 4 stalls, which would be the first V3 we've seen here with a non-multiple-of-3 size (assuming it is a V3, I suppose).

    According to pv magazine, rural and regional customers on the SWIS (south-west Western Australia) default to a 32A supply allocation for single phase connections, or 16A per phase for 3 phase connections. Historically this wasn't enforced through technical means, but now if you have major...

    Tritium PKM150

    Tritium's new PKM150 charger looks externally the same as the RTM75 that's been rolled out recently in a few places - it'll be hard to tell the difference when a new site is being built. This one is modular, configurable as either 50kW, 100kW or 150kW, and has a HVDC interconnection between the...
