Yass Superchargers, in search of services
Show 0 more photos Show 5 more photos Hide additional photos
Our Tesla was planning for us to stop next in Goulburn, but we weren’t going to make it. Unfortunately, the trip planner doesn’t factor in the human bladder. We told it to stop in Yass, at the Tesla Superchargers. There doesn’t seem to be a nearby public toilet, so we ducked into the pub next door.
EV chargers don’t generally have services like windscreen squeegees or air hoses, which is a shame. Fortunately, we carry both with us, so we cleared a layer of bugs off the windshield.
Back on the road, past the wind turbines that gave us the power.
Charging
We were parking anyway, so we might as well charge the car. When we decided, mid drive, to pit stop in Yass, we tapped the chargers icon, and selected the Yass Supercharger from the list. The car started preconditioning the battery for faster charging. We arrived, and just plugged in. Easy.
When we returned, we unplugged and drove off. Realising the full battery, the Tesla updated the trip planner to no longer charge in Goulburn, aiming for further up the highway at Bankstown. It seems that Campbelltown chargers were out of action, which the navigation handled automatically.

I don't use the charger often being on home solar but they are super useful if I need a quick top up for an unexpected trip out of town

Otherwise, we’ll come be the first to charge at the new fast chargers in Guyra!

Guyra was denied any charging points a few years ago and I now want to raise this issue again as I feel it will not only be beneficial to EV owners but also the Guyra community.
