Tesla Superchargers: Week of Checking Operational Status

During a ChargerAudit the past week, I examined the operational status of Tesla Superchargers at 85 different sites. I verified the functionality of the Supercharger stalls as indicated by the Tesla app. Additionally, I assessed the success of our charging attempts and noted the number of stalls occupied by other Tesla drivers at each site. Given the impracticality of testing every single stall, I carefully observed the stall conditions and monitored the behavior of the drivers, including instances of switching to different stalls, in order to identify any potential issues.

Weekly Stats:

Number of Supercharger Sites Visited: 85
Total Stalls: 890
Down Stalls: 1
Operational Stalls: 99.9%

Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status

I am doing a ChargerAudit of Tesla Supercharger locations around the United States. My objective is to assess the operational status of the Superchargers at the site level and at the individual stalls. To do the ChargerAudit, I examine the status displayed in the Tesla mobile app and make a note of any temporary closures or reported non-functional stalls. Upon arriving at a site, the driver selects an available stall at random and initiates the charging process. Furthermore, I document the perceivable charging success of other Tesla drivers and record the number of occupied stalls at each site. Given the impracticality of testing every single stall, I carefully observe the stall conditions and monitor the behavior of the drivers, including instances of switching to different stalls, in order to identify any potential issues.

Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status

I am currently conducting a ChargerAudit of Tesla Supercharger locations throughout the United States. My objective is to assess the operational status of the Superchargers both at the site level and the individual stalls. To achieve this, I examine the status displayed in the Tesla mobile app and make a note of any temporary closures or reported non-functional stalls. Upon arriving at a site, the driver selects an available stall at random and initiates the charging process. Furthermore, I document the perceivable charging success of other Tesla drivers and record the number of occupied stalls at each site. Given the impracticality of testing every single stall, I carefully observe the stall conditions and monitor the behavior of the drivers, including instances of switching to different stalls, in order to identify any potential issues.

Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status

I performed a ChargerAudit in and around Seattle Washington today. This involved evaluating the operational status of 12 Tesla Supercharger sites. I documented the functionality of the Supercharger stalls as displayed in the Tesla mobile app during my visit. Additionally, I noted the charging success of Tesla drivers and recorded the number of stalls occupied at each site. It is impractical to test every single stall, so I carefully observed the condition of the stalls and monitored the drivers’ behavior, such as any instances of switching to a different stall, to identify any potential issues.

Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status

Today, I performed a ChargerAudit in Washington state, specifically evaluating the operational status of 10 Tesla Supercharger sites. To conduct the audit, I documented the functionality of the Supercharger stalls as displayed in the Tesla mobile app during my visit. Additionally, I assessed the charging success of Tesla drivers and recorded the number of stalls occupied at each site. While it was impractical to test every single stall, I diligently observed the condition of the stalls and monitored driver behavior, such as any instances of switching to a different stall, to identify any potential issues.

Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status

Today, I examined the operational status at 13 Tesla Superchargers sites in eastern Oregon and Washington state. To conduct this ChargerAudit, I noted the functionality of the Supercharger stalls as indicated by the navigation screen in the car and the Tesla mobile app. Additionally, I assessed the success of charging attempts and noted the number of stalls occupied by other Tesla drivers at each site. While I couldn’t test every single stall, I made an effort to identify any potential issues by observing the condition of the stalls and driver behavior, such as if they moved to a different stall.

Tesla Superchargers: Week of Checking Operational Status

During a road trip this week, I examined the operational status of Tesla Superchargers at 58 different sites across 10 states. To conduct this ChargerAudit, I verified the functionality of the Supercharger stalls as indicated by the navigation screen in the car. Additionally, I assessed the success of our charging attempts and noted the number of stalls occupied by other Tesla drivers at each site. While I couldn’t test every single stall, I made an effort to identify any potential issues by observing driver behavior, such as if they had to switch to a different stall.

Weekly Stats:

Number of Supercharger Sites Visited: 58
Total Stalls: 516
Down Stalls: 3
Operational Stalls: 99.4%

Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status

The chart above lists the Tesla Superchargers that I visited on this day to perform a ChargerAudit. I’ve included the number of stalls that were reported out of order on the Tesla mobile app. I didn’t individually test every stall, however I carefully observed the number of vehicles connected to charging stalls at each site.

Tesla Superchargers: Evaluating Operational Status – June 15, 2023

The chart above lists the Tesla Superchargers that I visited on June 15, 2023 and to perform a ChargerAudit, no stalls were reported as out of order on the Tesla mobile app. I didn’t individually test every stall, however my observations revealed that approximately 28% of the total stalls were occupied and seemed to be operational.

Analyzing the Data:

Assuming that the app was correct when it indicated none of the stalls were out-of-order, we can infer that 100% of the 80 total stalls were operational. During my visits, I observed that approximately 28% of the total stalls were occupied by charging vehicles.
