In response to their post about them going live?

To be fair it’s 11pm also and people gotta sleep

Working, it's a service centre you can test drive etc and all. No disabled bays for charging btw

Were the contactless readers operational?

Anyone know when the Folkestone super chargers at Le Shuttle will be operational again? Surely they will be back online for the bank holiday weekend, but can’t seen any details.

 

[Stuart1714]

Any update on Gretna? It would be really useful if up and running this weekend

Called in earlier and the 14 V3 look pretty complete along with some Applegreen ones but are all fenced off with no activity. I suspect they are waiting for power.

Thank you - they've got 2 days to sort it!

Unlikely I’m afraid. It’s been looking like that for a good month or so. But for your sake I hope I’m wrong!

That is exactly as I saw it on Feb 17th - with the wrapping still around the cabinets.

Do you know why they are down? Please tell me they are being quickly upgraded.

Loads of cheaper options on the other side if not.

 

[qwickshot]

There were/are some non -Tesla units that have been awaiting power on for what feels like the best part of a year.

Perhaps it is related to that as Zapmap still doesn’t list them as being live.

There are cheaper units on the other side but I’d rather use the dead time at the terminal to charge, as I’m sure most would over a few p/kwh.

Power failure according to Twitter help, no ETA on a fix.

Edit: Seems to be working again, reporting as 6 free on the Tesla app. Phew

Now online.

should relieve the, pressure on Mansfield M1.

PSA: If you are doing the Glasgow to Manchester gauntlet over the weekend, why not try the new 16 bay charger at Larkhall Hotel just of the M74 and avoid the queues at Abington and Tebay!

I’d definitely be going here with Gretna also out of action.

It opened today and I expect it will be open to all.

Edit: there are already queues at Abington and Tebay but there are 14 free at the new site.

 

[zexpe]

Apparently it's not showing in the in-car SatNav so you need to know to avoid the queues...

I did Nottingham <-> Glasgow this week and used Ionity at Carlisle. Not cheap but I got 65p using Electroverse and fast charging rates.

Should never stop mentioning the other plus of Superchargers though which is being billed for kW to the car rather than kW dispensed by the charger. You can add 10-12% on for cable/inverter losses with 3rd party chargers.

Thanks for the info
Larkhall (16 x v3/4?) is not showing in the app as available to all, unlike Eurocentral (12 x v2) so will be a new preferred stop for me

Give it time.

Neither are Solihull or Annesley, which opened on Tuesday and Wednesday this week....

All V4 sites that have opened in the UK eventually show up in the Tesla app as open-to-all - even the laggards like Ipswich and Heartlands get there in the end.
