Another thing I noticed is Tesla hasn’t upgraded superchargers in my area of the country. If they build new ones, they put it in the latest 240KW stations. Those are the ones that you can actually do a splash and go..

Yeah, but.

Batteries are like BBQ; low and slow is best.

The superchargers push a ton of juice in over a short period of time. It’s hard on the battery for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is heat...especially in the summer.

It will eventually kill the battery.
