Put up the pole with new transformers for the 🔋🔌 but the cabinets are still covered. Won’t be long now!

Looks like they have a new pole to put up first, as there is a new one on the ground.

Looks like we’re just missing a transformer. Doesn’t even look like they’ve placed a pad or conduit for it.

Yep. Those spots on that side of the building.

11/19: concrete is done and posts are in. I also noticed that the pin shows the chargers on the south side of the lot, but they are on the east side between the building and the drive through ordering lane.

Under construction on 11/13. Conduit in place.

Can confirm westbound. 160 kW at 50%

Will be charging there in a few hours.

Stopped by Blue Heron last night and got up to 190kW at 25%. Battery was probably cold due to preheating for Maumee. Now we just need one at a service plaza near Youngstown so we can skip Strongsville or Sheffield!

Eastbound. Looks like waiting on a transformer.

Swung by today. Under construction.

Stopped by westbound today. Looks almost ready.

Stalls aren’t labeled but seems to work!

Still covered and no numbers on the stalls. Patience.

Power is hooked up. Cabinets still covered.

Progress! Transformer installed. Not hooked up at the pole yet though. Wire still spooled at the bottom.

Hey that’s progress! Got a transformer pad and wire pulled. Shouldn’t be too much longer!

2 charger cabinets, but no switching gear or transformer yet. Obviously no numbers on the stalls. The covers on the cabinets say Tesla Energy.

Cool. I’ll check it out when I’m up there Tuesday. On the 8th no utility work had been done. The utility lines run just south of the building. There is a pole right behind the building near where the charger cabinets will be. So, it’ll be pretty obvious if they’ve worked on that.

As of Tuesday 12/8, no additional progress. Took down the fence, smoothed out the dirt, and planted grass.

No changes the last few weeks. Stopped by on Thursday. Got a nice video since no cars were parked in the way. Doubt it will be open for Christmas.

Little bit better picture than last week, but no more progress. No wiring pulled yet, no equipment on site, no utility work. I'd really like to find if this will be a V3 or not.

Stopped by today. Concrete is done. Electric distribution panel was being installed. You can barely see it in the in the center of the picture. Truck blocked my way just as I was pulling out. I think he parked there since all the spots on that side of the store were full. No equipment on...

Did a drive by today. Looks like the conduit is ready to pull wire. No concrete yet. I mention the ice because in pre-COVID days, most of those spots would be filled at lunch. Right now, not so busy.

Drove by today. Charger is on the western edge of the parking lot. My guess is that these spots will ice over once open.

Got mine done at a reputable tire and auto repair chain. My teachable moment was removing the hub caps.

Anyone have any experience with inspections in the Fredericksburg or North Richmond areas?

Got mine replaced last week under warranty. Invoice says front and rear, but only lists the mid aero shield part number. Same fabric material as the old one. Front: Rear:

I had the exact same damage as kentrock1. I was driving home in the remnants of the hurricane than came through VA in mid October and drove through a puddle I couldn’t see at maybe 35. When I looked under the car on Saturday morning, I had a flap hanging down right of center just behind the...

Also got my TOU meter installed today, so now I’m good to go. Just need plates. How about 3MB6DEF or BNKWUPT or FLFRBOT? FNDSCRD? Heading out on the first road trip to the haute, so we’ll see how that goes.

It works! Picked up Flufferbot on Wednesday. It was supposed to be black, but all they had was silver, so I got the paint for free. July build, 42xxx.

60. Just need my 3 so that it will have something to plug in to!

Finally got it installed. Thanks @Verynoice!

No iceing today. Even saw my first 3, which is nice since I got my invitation to configure Friday. There was a black s exiting plus a red s at the firehouse subs up the road. Also noticed that they added a second air machine that you should be able to reach from 4b.

If you look closely at the third sign from the left, there is a large conduit sticking up out of the ground. They might be dropping a new pole there from the power lines above to get wires over to the transformer pad on the left.

Lines painted, still no signs of a transformer.

Looks about done, but still no transformer. Might be awhile.

Cabling is run. No signs of a transformer yet.

Beginning to look a lot like a supercharger!

Conduit run and concrete poured. Looks like the transformer is all the way to the left with the switch gear and charger cabinets next to the sign.

Forms for the pedestals are going in. Looks like the spot on the left will be a nose in, which is to be expected.

Working on it today at least. Wondering what they're going to do with the sign. Seems like the cabinets would block the view from the road if they are located anywhere along rt1.

Construction started!

My brother found the permit doc. It will be in the garage at 9 municipal dr near the 116/69 interchange. http://www.fishers.in.us/documentcenter/view/13562 It appears to be an urban charger, but those look like the 120kw cabinets.

Not sure why the link turned into Error, but it does work. The drawings start on page 39 of the 60 page document.

Drawings of the layout of this site are on the Carmel website: 17120016 ADLS Amend: Tesla Supercharging Station at Meijer 10 stalls next to the gas station.

Permit for clearing and grading approved. #COM17-0934 https://etrakit.spotsylvania.va.us/eTRAKiT3/Search/permit.aspx It doesn't say that it has been issued yet, but construction must be coming soon!

You can find the project application status on the Spotsy county website. Search for ST17-0033. Not much info there, but it does describe it as Tesla Supercharing Stations. Looks like the application is pending revisions. https://etrakit.spotsylvania.va.us/eTRAKiT3/Search/project.aspx...
