    Entire Supercharging Team Fired?

    pcmag is a strange media source to find and publish this news. I'm a little skeptical. It matches what we have seen, that the Ford and Rivian nacs adapter rollout has been really slow, with no explanation. Rivian had about 50-100 people get theirs from media reports, online reports didn't find...

    Info from Tesla - 277v feed to Wall Connector (HPWC) - Which Cars Support It

    Learned a lot reading this thread and watching that youtube video. I was reading the comments on the video and finally came to an answer of my question, what happens to pre-existing cars with J1772, when you put a tesla AC nacs adapter on there, but with 277v power coming in from a 480v building...

    Supercharger - Jordan Valley, OR (permit submitted 5/6/24, 8 V4)

    Could make it much easier for an EV to go to Owyhee Canyon, explore the area. That's on my list of places to visit.

    Value of FSD on resale

    Agreeing with these two posts - Tesla values FSD at almost nothing based on the purchase price of used cars and trade in values. The current monthly price of $100 makes so much more sense. Part of my rationale for going for the monthly price on it is that we are so far away from having real...

    WA State - New EV Incentives beginning August 2024 - upto $9K

    I think we let people make their own decision if they want an ev and have the ability to use whether they have charging or not make sense. Wealthy people can also live in places without charging, and not understand that their condo without say a place to charge is not a great fit until after...

    Supercharger - Quincy, WA

    We are so far away from having the software to do this. And it's likely illegal to arm robots or let them fight people in public - it should be illegal. The limitations of software understanding things in a somewhat controlled environment on the road is at best at a poor quality state, and this...

    Did Tesla really lay off their entire Supercharger staff

    You want them to be fired because they didn't put a supercharger where you wanted, they didn't spend a million dollars on your whim? There are lots of places that need superchargers, Tesla and all big companies have to trade off. It's not like Tesla has already built them in all the places that...

    Tesla's Supercharger Team laid off - What does it mean? | TMC Podcast #64

    I wish we could stop pretending that maybe there is some tortorous rationale for firing the whole team, panicing their nacs partners and the 100s of companies that were working with tesla on superchargers, sinking your company morale? Whether it's saving money for AI (which is he almost daily...

    Supercharging for “lifetime of car” transfers under the current FSD & Supercharging transfer to new cars

    What happened, that's unacceptable. I have worried about that transfer if I bought a new one and tried to transfer mine.

    Did Tesla really lay off their entire Supercharger staff

    there's a charging industry company YouTube channel (Smart Charge America), and they seem to be well connected to Tesla. They said Tesla spent $300 million already this year by their estimates, and so it could mean they are only spending $200 mil more. It's at the least still not a good thing to...

    Hosting Commercial Charging through Tesla

    Hi, did you find anything out? I'm interested in this process also. I read somewhere you had to get a minimum of 5 chargers to be in tesla's program, but I can't find it now. I want to buy the universal chargers (with nacs and j1772) and use power sharing. If I got say 5 of them, and they had...

    Supercharger - Silverdale, WA (under construction Apr 2024, 12 V4)

    The Ford Dealership there doesn't have a charger listed on plugshare that I can find, you are referring to West Hills Ford? Wonder if Port Orchard Shell Recharge is still free, didn't find anyone commenting about that on plugshare.

    Supercharger - Kirkland, WA - Northrup Way (Pre-Application approved but canceled 5/7/24)

    I charged at the one in Boise, Sonic Drive In | Boise, ID | EV Station

    Supercharger - Silverdale, WA (under construction Apr 2024, 12 V4)

    They put the fence up but did they "break ground"? Most important supercharger status point in today's world, unfortunately.

    Supercharger - North Bend, WA - North Bend Outlets (under construction May 2024, 24 V4 stalls)

    Went by today, there was a sizable crew working, no way it can be cancelled, eh :-)
