Canadian Magic Docks

I am on Android. So, not an android vs apple issue. Hm.

Yes, they are magic docks here in North Bay. Nope, not useable yet, and no signage indicating when or how to use them.

Looks like you left the french and are at crappy tire. Thanks for the update. Not good for you there is a 50 KW IVY to the west just outside town which is close. Next east is Petawawa. It is good for me that they are not working makes me feel better that the app also does not.

Thanks. You have no tesla products (vehicle, powerwall, solar invertor or wall connector) and installed the app clean without products? Do you get the charge a non-tesla graphics in your profile? A screen shot of your profile would be helpful.

No Tesla products. I not only get the Charge A Non-Tesla graphics, I’ve charged successfully at a magic Dock Supercharger.

We have two now from Canada that have installed the app and do not get charge a non-tesla. May be geographical? I hit the phone twice on the side and it still did not appear. Not much we can do other than sit and wait and it may kick in when the magic docks go live? Appears the one in North Bay does not work yet. Not sure about Deep River but I will not be able to test that one either at this stage. Good thing no Canadians travel down south ?‍

Edit: Does yours come up on the main page or in profile?

I glanced at the Deep River superchargers on drive by, but it was too late, and we wanted to get to our hotel last night, so did not stop. They do look like magic docks, however.

It looks like Tesla has (officially) now opened the super charger network to non-tesla EV's, and now (everyone) should be able to see the option to charge their non-tesla in the Tesla app.

I can confirm I now see this as well, and I was one of many folks on this thread who had an account on the Tesla app, with a payment card attached to it for months now, and could never see the option to charge until now. (See screenshot)

Here is an article explaining the change as well:

Thanks for the update. We are live here also now. 0.63 $/KW or $34 for 20 to 80% is pretty steep and the most expensive out there to date. Will try it as a novelty and make sure it is working in a pinch but I do not see myself using it at that cost too often.

Jules Park + Charge Payment Required @ their 150 KW chargers is
$1.00 connection fee + price per minute based on vehicle demand.
- $0.32/min @ 50 kW
- $0.38/min @ 100 kW
- $0.45/min @ 150 kW

Taking the 100 KW speed as our car does not do much more and say an average of 90 KW charging speed (based on past charging) 20 to 80% (54 KW) would take 36 minutes $1 + 36 x 0.38 = $14.76 almost a third of the cost. Even 45 minutes is half the price.

It looks like the North Bay and Deep River magic docks are now operational. I noticed because some Tesla owning Plugshare user messaged me asking me to delete my negative review, despite being completely accurate at the time of my review. Apparently a Bolt charged in North Bay yesterday.
