I, too, have experienced slow charging speeds at multiple stations across the northwest over the last week. It seems random in that I've had slow charging speeds in what feels like ideal conditions (cool weather, connector isn't hot, no other cars around, new station, etc.), and I've had fast charging speeds in what feels like terrible conditions (high temps, hot connector, older station, etc.).
Regarding shared connections, don't make the same silly mistake I did. Remember to check the stall ID sequence. I assumed all stations had identical sequencing for the stalls (1A next to 1B, 2A next to 2B, etc.). This is the sequence I'm used to seeing in SoCal. Out of habit, I would park two spots away from an occupied stall, thinking I was avoiding a shared connection situation.
At the Mt. Shasta charger, I was experiencing what I thought was an unusually slow charging speed, so I called Tesla to inquire about the station. A Model S was in the stall closest to the charging cabinet, so I parked two stalls away, thinking the S was on 1A, and I would be on 2A. It didn't even occur to me to check the ID numbers. The rep was very helpful and politely pointed out that I was sharing my connection with another car. I paused in slight disbelief, then looked down, and wouldn't you know, the stall sequence was 1A, 2A, 1B, 2B! Doh!!!
