SuperCharging, South Hill, VA

[--1--]

My wife and I took a day trip yesterday from South Richmond, VA (Chester) to Danville, VA. I was fully charged and left Home with a 307 mile charge. The trip was 152 miles to Danville with about 30 miles around town. I knew the trip to Danville and back to South Hill to supercharge was around 250 miles. We stopped in South Hill and supercharged back to 307 miles. The supercharger is about two miles off I-85 in a remote location. Very difficult to find for a first timer. Regardless, any supercharging is wonderful. Just to be safe, we stopped on the way back for 36 miles to ensure no problems getting home. Would have made it with 14 miles to spare without, but with more experience, I'll trust the GPS more. Always fun to bond with other Tesla owners and share your Tesla experience.

Looks like a perfect place for a serial killer. Are there any businesses nearby.

Yea that’s the parking lot to a restaurant. The one time I stopped there I was able to go in for a poop and listen to some live music lol.

There's a Love's Truck Stop and Service Center up the street one mile. We looked for the Tesla Supercharger there, had a hard time finding it. We walked up the street to Love's, very dangerous walking on the side of the road. Again, just glad to have a Supercharger station available.

Also use Plugshare.com. For harder to fins locations, folks normally post comments and a lot of pictures. But yes, trust the GPS
