Thanks for the update, I was curious about it.
Sooooo close! 1 kWh on the meter so they did something with it. Hopefully they get the final approval before the weekend.

As I was passing by today I saw a Tesla backed into a space at the chargers so I pulled it to check it out. Stations aren't powered up yet but there were three Tesla worker bees working inside one of the caninets. They said they're working on getting them up and running so it should be any time now.

The location of the pin on supercharge.info does not match the photos in this thread. The correct location is 35.899193, -79.947059.

Yeah, I guess I kinda answered my own question but going out to my car and checking. I was traveling near it and almost stopped to check it out but figured a 5 hour trip from Western NC to Raleigh was already long enough.
Was making a trip from Fayetteville to Charlotte, and this was the station the nav picked, so I gave it a shot, and the results speak for themselves... “Now witness the power of this fully armed and operational battle station!”

Pulled 256 kW for a bit on Monday here. Managed to get a pic at 251 kW. My SOC wasn’t even that low at 20%ish. Seems to be a great charger and is a perfect halfway distance for me between SC and VA.

I stopped here for the 1st time yesterday. Charging was fast (expected for a v3) but the Sheetz gas station was SUPER busy and the air pump station (blue X in the picture) had a consistent line the 20+ minutes I was charging.
The problem is that the person using the air pump filling their tires or the car waiting in line can easily block the closest 1-3 stalls. There was a police office sitting on the premise, not sure if that is normal but with the amount of activity going on at this Sheetz I would say it was warranted to make sure nothing happened with the chaos that was going on.
Not sure if I would stop here again unless it was an optimized route since it is very hectic (much like the Mebane, NC Sheetz SuC location) and there was a lot of dog poop in the little bit of green grass area next to the chargers.

Yeah, I use this one many times on my way from SC to VA. People do seem to use that free air a lot when I've been there but I never saw anyone blocking the stalls as the cars have come from the other side where there are no stalls, in my experience at least. The satellite you are showing is old as they removed half of that mulch/curb area to make room for 8 stalls also.
I have lately avoided this one as it gets full and instead use the Lexington one as it is quiet and really only 5 min out of the way. The new Thomasville supercharger coming soon is much needed as I-85 is heavily trafficked. Gastonia as well for that matter.
Also has anyone else noticed there are no supercharger cabinets at this location? Surely they have to have those right?
