Supercharger - Chino Hills, CA (LIVE 21 Jul 2021, 16 V3 stalls)

I stopped by last night. Fences are down, parking stalls are striped, but no power to any of the pedestals. Looks like a transformer is still missing. One odd thing I noticed was the "Tesla Charging Only" versus "Tesla Charging" signs. Didn't seem to be grouped in any sort of method. However for a busy Saturday night, nobody was ICEing any of the stalls.

Do new superchargers generally open to the public by the date listed on Tesla's Supercharger website?
E.g. This Chino Hills one is supposed to be available by Q2 2021. If its not open by EOD today, someone's (at Tesla) gonna get into trouble 😆

All of Tesla's supercharger opening dates are aspirational. You can even see it on their map: "Target opening by Q2 2021".

They've been pretty good since the switch to showing the quarter target dates on the map, but you should generally read them as +- 1 quarter. My base assumption is that they should usually have at least started construction within the quarter listed, not that they'll necessarily be operational by the last day. At some locations that won't have happened, but others listed with a later quarter date will have been fully built and activated before their target quarter, so it's all a wash.
