    There seems to be a new supercharger under construction located at a Wawa on Hillsboro Blvd right off 95.

    Can somebody possibly stop by and snap a few pics?

    Hopefully someone can provide pictures soon! Did you observe the construction yourself?

    I went by there yesterday. It still looks exactly like the pics that were posted in the news article. No additional progress and no indication that there has been recent construction activity there.

    I thought I snapped 2 pics, but my phone must have had an issue since they were not captured. :(

    Stopped by for recent recon. Word is they will be open in 2-3 weeks. They have to upgrade the transformer nearby and either that or the V3 chargers they sent down were of the wrong type for our 480 volt 4-wire Wye power here.

    They are wiring up for third-party chargers too maybe on the other side of the lot.

    We appreciate the information. However, as was asked, it would be helpful if you could provide an authoritative source for your information.

    Based on current photos, the utility transformer pad has been installed, but the transformer has yet to be installed and no Supercharger cabinets of either version have been delivered to the site.

    Edited: After reviewing the conduit arrangement at the Clearwater Supercharger construction, which is a confirmed version 3 Supercharger based on the permit application, I have revised my opinion and now believe this is also a version 3 installation.

    From the photos that have been posted, it appears that there are two concrete pads each with provisions for ONE Supercharger cabinet. So if there are a total of two Supercharger cabinets that would indicate that this is a version 3 Supercharger installation.

    Here's a link to an article I wrote:

    There is no authoritative source. It's hearsay I picked up inside the store.

    What do you mean by "up and running"? The photos don't suggest that, unless you've attached the wrong pics..
