    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL - US Highway 19 North

    Construction was active today. I wish it was more than stalls, however between this and Clearwater further north on 19 or St Pete further south it should balance out nicely. Getting back on 19 to head north though is a slight pain but not horrible.

    Supercharger - Saint Petersburg, FL

    Saw a photo on Facebook that the Wawa at 3637 34th St S, St. Petersburg, FL 33711 looks to have about 8 cabinets under construction. The permit was applied for back in April so this has been slow progress, but it appears the underground conduit has been laid and signed off on. I was unable to...

    Gov. DeSantis Announces 74 New Superchargers Along the Turnpike

    Fort Drum was free but I think about a year ago it was changed to charge. I wasn't able to verify as I was one of those that still had free Supercharging due to Hurricane Dorian last year. I just checked the in-car navigation and you can see Turkey Lake still does not list a fee however Fort...

    Gov. DeSantis Announces 74 New Superchargers Along the Turnpike

    I think/hope we will get more Superchargers on the Turnpike however I don't think it will be every stop like originally planned. Looking at your screenshot from the most recent media event it shows 16 additional Tesla chargers. Let's assume the Fort Drum upgrade (additional 4 chargers) is not...

    Gov. DeSantis Announces 74 New Superchargers Along the Turnpike

    We knew about most of the planned expansion along the Turnpike from a press conference held last year, Florida Tesla Enthusiasts - Fast Charging & Supercharging Stations will be added at the Florida Turnpike service plazas (Public). During that conference, he did state they wanted to add more...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Reported to Tesla about the two stalls not working. They responded they would pass on the request to the local team. Received 2020.8.1 a day or two from the report and noticed on the in-nav screen two stalls as out of order. Stopped by today and one (5th counting left to right) has a bag over...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    There is also one more Supercharger to the far left that has a light pole. That sign has a generic parking for Wawa Customers only.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Can confirm that stall 5 (counting from right to left when standing in front of the Wawa and looking at the chargers) was not working properly. Also, the in-car nav always shows two chargers as not available. If someone has the new update possibly they can see if it shows two under maintenance...

    Some of the Wawa associates park in the lot immediately behind Wawa where the kidney center is located. Only time will tell.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    I expected a lot of ICEing to happen so I hope those planning a trip around the area and need this supercharger to continue does plan and budget accordingly. However, at the same time, this location does have some positives. First, there isn't too much in the area that a normal ICE driver will...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Both inspections passed today. The City of Clearwater considers this project as complete. Now we wait for Tesla to activate the station. Note that I will not be able to provide any status updates for a bit. I would expect the station to come online before I am able to check again so if there is...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    I am onsite right now and one of the inspectors just finished. I will monitor the permit site today and report on the results once they are posted.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    I checked on the progress this morning. The last two pedestals are being worked on today. Duke has installed the meter. The parking lines were also repainted.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    The fence is down and the pedestals are covered again. Duke will need to install the meter as seen in the second and third photos. The Tesla only/time limit signs still need to be installed. What is interesting is the signpost are on the lines and the superchargers are located in the middle of...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    This station should be online fairly shortly. Tesla Energy was onsite yesterday. Also yesterday the City of Clearwater inspector released the request to Duke for connection to power and metering at 1:30 PM. Today was a partial pass with the notes, "Pass pending installation of last two delivery...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Most of the installation was completed today. Cabinets have been installed and the terminals are in place. The spots are fenced off and the terminals have bags over the top. There is still one small transformer in the lot as well as a forklift. I would expect construction to be completed soon...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Breaking News! Just this morning construction continues. I couldn't get too close as they had the entire back lot coned off. There was also a cement truck off to the left of the frame that was onsite. I will check back tonight (after 8:30/9:00 PM) and/or tomorrow morning for another update.

    Minor update. Duke has installed some of their equipment. Looks like the next major step will be Tesla delivering their cabinets and pedestals.

    PAST EVENT: Florida Tesla Enthusiasts Meet-up at Whispering Oaks Winery in Oxford

    It was an amazing turnout with the two groups. I have never seen that many Teslas all in one location. Angelia really outdid herself on this event.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Stopped by today a no new progress. These though will probably be heavily ICED. I walked out after grabbing a hot chocolate and most of the back spots, all and not just the soon to be superchargers, were occupied, with only about 6 open spots total. This was around 10:30 in the morning so of...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Thanks for the update. Saves me the time tomorrow as I won't stop unless I see the Tesla crates have been delivered. The good thing is Wawa is not a location you stop and stay long, so even if ICEd I would expect the owner of the car to return in about 10 minutes. Also since these should be v3...

    Making great progress! Now waiting for Tesla to deliver the equipment.

    Update as of this morning. They are progressing nicely.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Nothing too exciting, but progress is progress. Most likely the next update will be later after more progress is made and I can sneak a shot either over the top of the fence or through the gaps of the gates.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Attached is a photo I took Wednesday of the location. As @Gondi63 stated this is a busy parking lot so I am too afraid of a large possibility of being ICEd. Good news is I just drove by this morning and they have chain link fences up as well as it appears to have construction equipment. I will...

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Permit finally issued 10/9/19. I will keep an eye out for delivery of the equipment plus any pre-delivery prep work.

    Supercharger - Clearwater, FL (V3)

    Thanks @mociaf9 for bring this here for its own discussion. I will pop back to this thread with progress photos and updates as I see them happening. It is interesting the on the permit is lists v3. Time will tell if that is true. Depending on how quickly the construction can be completed that...

    Anyone wondering about the "Coming Soon" Supercharger Stations in Florida?

    Been checking the permit site periodically for my prediction at the Wawa located at US-19 and Countryside and I can now confirm I was correct. Permits have been filled for eight (8) v3 stations at 26508 US Highway 19 Clearwater FL 33761. Accela Citizen Access

    Anyone wondering about the "Coming Soon" Supercharger Stations in Florida?

    That is correct. I found the permit for the WaWa construction, Accela Citizen Access which gave me the parcel number 30-28-16-00000-430-0300 and address 26508 US HIGHWAY 19, Clearwater, FL 33761. Still doing more research, but this is my first time trying to pull permits for Pinellas so I am...

    Anyone wondering about the "Coming Soon" Supercharger Stations in Florida?

    New to TMC Forums. Not sure if wild speculations are allowed, but figured it may help the group when searching for permits. There is a new Wawa that is being built at US-19 and Countryside. This seems to fit with current trends and would also be a strong location for a Supercharger. There is the...
