There are V4 dispensers in the ground. We're getting closer to having the first operational V4 dispensers in Nashville!

Crews were on-site today. It looks like the meter hasn't been installed yet.
The meter is finally installed. I'm guessing it will be activated any day now!
But what about that skid of what looks like possibly two charging cabinets that's still sitting on a skid in the parking area adjacent to the V4 stalls? Doesn't that still need to go in somewhere to power the total number of stalls I see pictured?
They installed 3 new cabinets in addition to the 3 existing cabinets for the V2's. You can see them in the background of the photo below. It also looks like NES signed off of the project. I've seen similar-appearing pallets at other locations that contain bollards, signage or trash cans but I haven't gotten a close look at these specifically.
Crews on site and doing something with the cabinet near the meter feeding the new dispensers.
Magic Docks are currently being installed on the V3 dispensers at this location. I have no idea if the same crew is working on the V4 activation...
Oops. This will call delays.
I was hopeful this station would be activated soon because the meter has been installed and turned on and everything else is ostensibly ready to go.

Spoke to a Tesla tech at the Hendersonville SuC. He was doing some troubleshooting there. He mentioned that V4 stations coming soon. I asked if he would be the the one to commission them. He said he would, he's covering TN and KY superchargers. I asked about the schedule. He doesn't have it on his schedule yet but anticipated it being 3-4 weeks. I suppose Musk is living up to his promise, rollouts will be slower now.
I wonder if the permit issues at the West Nashville and Brentwood locations have anything to do with the SC turmoil, or if that's just typical for these installs.
It also seems strange that the One Hundred Oaks location has been untouched for the better part of a month even though the cabinets and dispensers are sitting on pallets on site. It's almost like the contractor abandoned the project.
As evidenced to what at happened at Hendersonville, it is a bad idea to leave equipment sitting on pallets for an extended period of time. The equipment develops faults due to extended periods of humidity and the firmware become so old it won't interface to the network anymore.
After the staff reduction at Tesla I think we will witness more of these prolonged installs.
