| 180227165 | The cables in Norway and other EU countries. It's getting crazy in South America because they are getting cars from all over the world (including China) and they now have charging stations with at least 4 different plugs. Take a look at this station in Bogotá, Colombia:

| 180227165 | BTW, are you on the OSM community forum? I have some photos of the Supercharger cables I want to send you, because I'm so confused about that! :) |
|
| 180227165 | You were actually only about 3m away when you mapped it the first time! :) You can see this if you use Esri World Imagery as the background layer. I see you're using "MinimalRubyOSM" and I'm not familiar with that. I use 2 editors: iD (the default web editor at www.openstreetmap.org) and JOSM, which is the best for measuring. |
|
| 180227165 | I just moved the node to the center of the stalls (shown by Esri World Imagery). I also updated how this is named (branch, like bank branches, gets the location name, but the name gets standardized to "Tesla Supercharger"). Also added the usual set of tags. |
|
| 180227165 | Ha! This is funny, because I've been waiting on aerial imagery for this station and Esri has the first imagery, but only construction. I'm waiting on the lines since I've waited this long. See this post where I talk about this (I am electrons4u on that forum):

| 179495380 | Ha ha! Welcome to the club. I was concerned that I had fucked up this station in Norway. :) I saw that this Tesla Supercharger had 2 cables in the past, and I'm not sure which they were using. Were they the original Tesla plug (that does both AC and DC) and a CSS Combo 2 (for higher-power DC)? Or was it the Mennekes (Type2) plug?

| 179495380 | Also, did Tesla upgrade the 8 original posts to 250 kW or leave them at 150 kW? In the US they usually upgrade the old 120/125/150 kW posts when there is an expansion, but they often leave the 250 kW posts (V3) when they add 325 kW posts (V4). In the EU the V4 posts might only output 250 kW. Tesla does not document on their website if a station has a mixture, so it's up to websites like supercharge.info, nobil.no, and OSM to keep track of this. :) |

| 179495380 | Hi, I normally just map Superchargers in the US because that keeps me busy, but I noticed this one showed up as expanded on https://supercharge.info. I updated ref:supercharge_info because that should be a number (244), as in https://supercharge.info/map?siteID=244 Also, iD (OSM web-based editor) wanted to "upgrade" the station to a Tesla Destination Charger, so had to add not:brand:wikidata=Q478214 to prevent that. By the way, what are the ref:tesla and ref:tesla2 tags used for? They are not present on any of the Tesla Superchargers mapped in the United States. Maybe they are old and not used anymore, especially the ref:tesla2? |

| 179546137 | 3-storey is right across the street and 5-story is just to the south of Wasabi and the plaza. A 5-storey building there would be interesting. |
|
| 179546137 | It could be residential or office, and they could add on and build it higher. The buildings across the street and next door have retail (including restaurants) on the ground level and offices and apartments above. I could see a developer come in and turn that into a 3- to 5-storey building just like across the street. |
