Tesla的超級充電站被蓄意破壞 - 汽車

Barstow是位於加州的一個城市，也是一個重要的地區性交通樞紐

上周末的時候這城市的Tesla超級充電站被人破壞了

從破壞手法來看，這些人並不是只是想搞破壞的小混混

而是具有一定知識的專業人士

而這星期的感恩節大周末又是出遊旺季，來往加州跟拉斯維加斯的人一定會被影響到

動機是什麼還不知道

但下面的評論已經有些陰謀論出來了

特別是前幾天，有一個以川普支持者為首的右派團體才公開的發起反對Musk

跟他兩家公司：Tesla與SpaceX的活動

甚至有美國鄉民在問為什麼有這麼多共和黨人討厭科學跟新技術XD

Tesla Supercharger was sabotaged, affecting route between LA and Vegas
ahead of busy weekend

Someone has sabotaged Tesla’s Barstow supercharger, just before the big
holiday travel weekend. Whoever it was, they seem to have acted
deliberately.

The supercharger seems to have been down since at least Saturday, per a
post on Tesla Motors Club in the Barstow supercharger thread, but was
working as of Thursday around noon per PlugShare checkins. Tesla is aware
of the outage, but will likely not have the station up until the end of
the month – after the big holiday travel weekend.

Tony Williams, longtime EV driver and owner of EV charging adapter
provider Quick Charge Power, went and checked the damage. He has posted
some pictures of the damage, which is quite extensive, and suggests that
the job seems to be a deliberate act by knowledgeable people with access
to “commercial grade” tools – certainly more than just a “smash ‘n
grab”.

There is currently no solid information as to the motivation behind the
sabotage. We don’t want to speculate as to that motivation, though we’
re sure there will be plenty of speculation in the comments below.


Several owners in the TMC thread above have noted that the drive from LA
to Vegas is still possible according to evtripplanner.com, and a few have
confirmed this by doing the drive and stopping just at the Primm and
Rancho Cucamonga superchargers – one owner used 76% of his S85’s energy
from Primm to Rancho, which means the drive should be possible in
anything but a 60kWh model with a little discipline (or, in the case of a
60, perhaps with a lot of discipline). If you are considering the drive
you should probably be sure to charge up to full before you leave the
aforementioned chargers, and take it easy on the drive between them.
Remember that lower speeds will increase your range, higher speeds will
reduce it.

Tesla is gradually working to put more superchargers at smaller distance
intervals on highly-trafficked routes, which helps in situations like
these. Barstow was one of the original supercharging stations and used
to be the only one which covered the LA to Vegas route, but now that the
Primm and Rancho superchargers are open, this outage, while certainly a
big deal for many travelers, does not make the route impossible. And even
in the instance of supercharger outages, there are always slower chargers
like CHAdeMO (which Teslas can use via an adapter) or RV hookups, which
can be found through PlugShare or similar charge station apps.
