I expected the worst - for it to be due to technical issue with the batteries, however it looks like it is mostly related to the Superchargers being congested a

  Sure it depends on the region. I live in the Midwest along the supercharge path. The mall by me has 3 or 4 supercharge stations, which I think is approximately 4x the number of teslas owners living in my city. About half the time all 4 stalls are empty, about half the time I see 1 car. Which is "good" in that people on a long trip can get their charge on without having to wait in line. I suspect if I lived in town and drove a Tesla, I would use it a little more often for the free power ;) Maybe just adding a $5 charge cost would be enough to balance out supply and demand? $5 a tank is still a good deal on a long trip, but hardly worth going out of my way to do (when I can charge for $2 at home)
