    Call for donations for Port Angeles High-Powered Charger

    Absolutely! I definitely wanted to make sure we were drawing the full 240, so glad to see that is what they did! - - - Updated - - - Hmmm...I thought plugshare and recargo merged, so I would have assumed that putting it on one would put it on the other. I'll have to fix this problem.

    No need "right away"...if you can make that donation in the next couple of weeks, it would be appreciated...or, if it makes more sense, keep something like 50% for Centralia repairs, if needed, and donate the rest to the PA charger.

    I thought about that, but, was trying to avoid too many fees (the tax deductible donation to the city, for instance, requires no fees and no middle man). With regard to the "we'll only take the money if we meet the goal" concern, I totally understand. You don't know me...how do you know I'm...

    Yeah, the city wants pay to install something that everyone can use...not just Tesla owners (which I agree with). The more chargers, obviously, the better. However, Port Angeles to Aberdeen is only 164 miles...easily doable in the 85 kwh Model S and the Roadster...a bit of a stretch in the 60...

    EV courtesy

    I haven't had it happen to me yet, but it does sound irritating. Especially given that there are level 2 chargers 7 miles away at the Custer rest station. The LEAF doesn't benefit from the 70 amp HPC like the Tesla can. I agree with Discoducky...a lock would be a good thing to consider. I'm...

    UPDATE: I got the quote back from Clipper Creek. It is $2195 for the CS-90, as well. It sounds like the charge box is the same as the CS-100, they just change the cabling out to have it draw the 72 amps instead of the 80 (thus making it compatible with the roadster). So, $2195 for the...

    Fox news business reporter claims Model S only has 16 miles of range.

    I agree that Al Gore tried to do something...and I'm not debating the merits of that attempt. I do agree with Elon, however, that the unfortunate side effect of Al Gore doing it in the United States' political climate is that Climate Change gained a public face...that of a left-wing...

    Fox news business reporter claims Model S only has 16 miles of range.

    Absolutely.

    Fox news business reporter claims Model S only has 16 miles of range.

    Another thing that grabbed my attention...basic elementary arithmetic says that "16 miles or a half-hour of usage" implies that the car has a top speed of 32 mph. Ignoring the blatant misrepresentation/lie of the Model S's range, this also jabs at the Model S's performance, something that Tesla...
