This is the supercharger located in Magog, Quebec. I've used this supercharger at least a dozen times in the last year. I've only recently been keeping track of my charge rate, and I just finished reading the supercharger section on the Tesla website.
This is what they say on their website:
How can I maximize power and reduce charge time at a Supercharger?
Each charge post is labeled with a number and letter, either A or B (e.g. 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B). When possible, select a charge post with a unique number that is not currently connected to a vehicle. When a unique number isn’t available, the Supercharger cabinet has technology to share available power between charge posts A and B. To maximize power, park at a Supercharger shared with a car that is nearly done charging. For Superchargers in urban areas, there is no need to consider these suggestions, as those sites do not share available power; each car has dedicated power available.
So I decided to test it out. I went yesterday and today and both times I was maxing out around 200km / 30ish kwh. Both times I was the only Tesla plugged. In the past, I've gotten up to 400km, which was great, but now I'm not even near that. Both days that I went I was at approximately 30-40% of my batteries capacity. I used different superchargers both times.
Could this simply be an issue with this specific supercharger station? Could it be that both superchargers that I used are somewhat broken? When I plug at home I always gets the same rate of about 30km. I've seen the thread where Tesla limits supercharging rate, but considering I don't often use them I doubt that I am affected by it.
