Yes they are V3 250Kw chargers!
It was nice and quiet at 8 AM Sunday in Vegas. I was the only one charging.
Funny you asked, I drove to this SC location earlier (4 AM) showing off my Model 3 to a friend - but can not for the life of me find the "code" for the ticket/gate. No one else was charging, to ask. Sign at the gate says - PIN is in your Tesla screen....I did not know the code is shown when you select the SC location in the Map. So, I ended up returning this morning. Still, my friend was impressed at the car.
Anyway, back to the V3 experience...
I selected the LINQ SC station, got the code, and navigated to the SC station which was 3 miles away - my car did NOT do the Battery Preconditioning for SC this time - odd, because it usually does when I am navigating towards a supercharger.
It was 85° outside, about 50% SoC, and my car was asleep for 3 hours, but it did not pre condition despite attempts to re initiate navigation to the SC. I was worried coz I know I am going to a V3 SC.
Well, I plugged in - and max rate was 147Kw at 600 mi/hr. It tapered as usual at 80% SoC. Nothing else was different at this V3 station - it was just faster than usual.
Ok, there it is. I hope this was not TLDR for you.
Cheers!
