Great turnout!
I notice that of the 11 model S's that are there only one has a front license plate (required in Idaho), so lots of visitors in town.
Is the silver one with Ada County plates yours Rocky_H?

got a chance to use it last week on our vacation, it was really nice to arrive at a city and be able to charge up once and be good for the whole weekend! it was noteworthy that the parking blocks appear to be placed too far from the stations, I had a hard time getting close enough to the station to plug in.
Yes, the parking blocks are really far out. You actually do have to just back up until your tires come up against them, and then the cable reaches fine. They apparently measured them out to exactly that distance on purpose.
As the new owners of Say When Casino • Bar • Cafe in McDermitt, Nevada (US Highway 95 South on the Oregon/Nevada border), in partnership with the Tesla Motors Club of Boise, we are very pleased to announce the addition of an e-car charger at our business.
No longer question whether or not your vehicle can make it from the Boise area to Winnemucca on a single charge - "say when" to charge at Say When!
At this time, one charging station is available for use, at no cost. Say When Casino is open 24/7 (with the exception of a few hours on Thanksgiving and Christmas). We are a family owned and operated business, and family friendly.
Awesome! What are the specs on the charger?
72A 208V (15 kW) setup delivers 40-45 mile per hour charge rate with Model S/X.
Assuming one has a 85 KwH battery, one can reach Boise via superchargers from California by driving to Elko, NV then head north on HWY 225. It's about 120 miles farther than going through the direct route via Winnemucca but it's at least possible to get there.
Can a person with a 60D make it to Sun Valley from the Boise super charger without going though Twin Falls?
