I don't think super chargers were available at all, period, when I confirmed my car, but I still "paid" for it.BUT, when you got the car was 120KW even available? Doubt it so it's not something you "paid" for...

OP here. Tesla confirmed again that I'm hardware limited to 90kwh. Given VIN 2281 reported 120kwh support earlier in this thread, that means VINs both before and after mine (2310) have 120kwh support while I do not. That's the crux of my ongoing communications with Tesla.
Certainly both cabinets at Barstow are labelled as 120, and that was one of the original locations. Also, Hawthorne is Tesla's flagship supercharger.
Ok, so with all the misinformation and concern floating around over this issue, why doesn't someone just ping Jerome for the definitive answers.
If that has already been done could someone please post the response here?
There's a really easy way to confirm what is happening and measure the time differential between a 120kW and 90kW charge (note, I'm not volunteering). Simply build a power curve over time like @cinergi did for a Sig model and a later VIN model that are on the same firmware. Won't define the VIN cutoff but will show the different taper curves.
I want to add another possibility: older embedded controllers and sensors that govern the tapering curve which can't be updated via firmware flash, only upgraded via hardware swap.
I'm not sure what to think anymore. I'm happy for Digitaltim, but if he's got 120kwh and a bunch of us with later VINs don't, then the argument about missing the cut due to advancing technology is standing on very thin ice.Digitaltim got 117 kW in his Sig: Finally 120KW Supercharging! - Page 14

Yea, just saw that. So that's yet further evidence it's a hardware issue and quite possibly a very expensive hardware issue.
