I have just plugged in beside a Model 3 on an eCarNI charger. Beside the Model3, are 4 empty Tesla charging bays. Do they cost money to use or what???

The tesla is currently draining your remaining charge before blocking you off from the charging network. They are that good.

I wish it would

Are the ones in Banbridge outlet genuine Tesla ones?

 

[Cooper]

There are Tesla branded chargers at Junction One/The Junction/Another renamed "outlet". Not superchargers though IIRC.

 

[KevM]

I think they are just 22kw but brand specific.

This Hyundai fairly knocks the charge in on a 22kw 'slow' charger. The Leafs I used to drive were an all day job. This one did 30%/70 miles in 2 hours while shopping

Is there no Tesla ones on Boucher?

 

[Captain Starlet]

I thought I saw a tesla charger in bangor near m&s

 

[KevM]

The only Tesla Superchargers I have ever seen, have been at the Southern Applegreens

From previous threads about Teslas from the dealership on Boucher blocking up the public chargers...it would seem not, unless that has changed

Like him or loathe him, he's a genius of sorts. And he is building capacity to crush most other manufacturers

There are defects with some 20 of the 70 taxis, ranging from broken power steering to broken drive shafts and broken power steering,

Next thing the power steering will give up.

There's no sign of the Tesla train slowing up, taxi defects or otherwise.

2 hours charging to get 70 miles? Seriously?

Tesla is well-known for being reluctant/incapable of fixing "defects" but you have to remember they have only been mass producing cars for about 4 years. It's the cart before the horse scenario, they can't heavily invest in after-sales until they are making a steady profit from selling cars. Now they are actually doing that we can see the number of Service Centres and mobile service rangers rapidly increasing, plus the level of quality coming off the production lines has improved massively in the last couple of years.
